If you’re still searching for a costume, in the hopes that you’ll win that bartab for best dressed this Halloween, you’d better hope this guy doesn’t rock up to the same party. Not only does it look like a DSLR, it’s fully functional as well. It actually snaps a photo, accompanied by a flash, and displays the image at the back.
Let’s face it, as necessary as they are, some awareness campaigns are pretty lame. Especially when they are conceptualised by ad agencies who are out of touch with the audience they are trying to speak to. But not this quality, yet very funny New Zealand commercial. It urges blokes to be “legends” by not letting their friends drink and then drive.

When reversing genetics in an attempt to create a real, live, man-eating dinosaur, it pays to know what the consequences may be.

Remember that 2005 episode of South Park where they satirized Scientology by neutrally describing their core beliefs? Well, Scientology does.

It’s good to know that somewhere, someone is still celebrating in true World Cup style. Unfortunately for Toni Nicholson, she took things a little too far. Her neighbours’ complaints include all night parties, hurtling of things off balconies and the fact that they haven’t slept in a year. Good thing they weren’t anywhere near Cape Town in 2010 then.
Someone told me about this the last time I went to Jo’burg. I didn’t get to see it because I rarely move from the grounds of The Westcliff – either at the pool or in the Polo Lounge.

You know the way a lot of professional “critics” seem to be incredibly satisfied with every word that emanates from their non-smiling mouths? Well, I reckon the reason for this is that deep down inside they know their role in society is, in fact, quite menial. Nothing they say really matters when all is said […]
Do I really need to say more words to make you click on this link? It’s William Shatner. Singing Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody. In his Shatner voice.The video itself is pretty great, but that’s mostly because in the video, Shatner’s face is the sky. Fun fact: Shatner claims to have first heard Bohemian Rhapsody last year.
You may remember that a little while back Rihanna got into some hot water with an Irish farmer for being topless in one of his fields. That video is now out, and is showing all the signs of some possible brain damage, most likely induced by Chris Brown.
Holy kaw! Do we honestly even need to tell you how awesome this is?! We don’t. We shouldn’t have to. You know Kings Of Leon? The critically-acclaimed, four-album, world famous guys who do live shows like this? Yep, those guys. Tickets to the Cape Town gig are basically sold out. Which means that this is […]
A group of four copycats told police they used techniques from his recent movie, “The Town”, after they were arrested for a string of 62 small time, New York robberies.

Being rich is hard. Especially when it comes to road trips. It’s always an issue of “The Ferrari’s too small”, or “I wish my mansion had wheels”. Enter, the Elemment Palazzo.

The geniuses also stole the Presidential Teleprompter.
Susan Sarandon has really rubbed America’s largest Catholic civil rights organization up the wrong way. The actress raised eyebrows the other day when she referred to Pope Benedict as a “Nazi”, and the Catholic League is now lashing out at her.

A guy from California is suing the Warner Bros. for copyright infringement, misappropriation of his publicity rights, and defamation, claiming that The Hangover II was based on a script he wrote about his own adventures in Asia.
