Moving Graffiti Art Animation (MUTO)

Link

Once upon a time, people would take spray cans and paint graffiti on walls.

That was the old way.

Now, they turn them into animations, or at least that's how this one was done. It's moving art on random walls and it's the ultimate in quirky. Really, I don't know how else it could be described other than amazing....and a little bit creepy, lol. I watched it without sound the first time, but it's much better to have your volume up for the sound effects.

59 MPGs....in a plain ol' Acord

Link

I really, really hope this site keeps their articles up so this doesn't become a dead link. It's a fairly long article, so I'm not going to paste the whole thing. Basically, his driving techniques, although incredibly crazy on some of them, allow him to get 59 miles per gallon.....which with rising gas prices, is something just about everyone could enjoy.

I do 'not' recommend some of his techniques -- like shutting off the engine while going 50mph on a 25mph turn. Other things he talks about make sense, though, and you can learn a lot that might help curb some of your own bad driving habits. Guzzling gas is not something most of us can afford as prices climb even higher.

Gone Nuts...Everybody's Nuts!

Okay, so they're pistachios, hehe. And yes, those are real googly eyes that will move and wiggle. For 10 bucks, that cutie is all yours! Maybe "cutie" isn't the right word, of course, but you get the idea.

You can also get him on t-shirts, hats, and in a viewfinder toy.....and they also sell pistachios in various varieties, but that's the least quirky part about it. Check out the rest of the site to see flying martian pistachios and read really weird answers to simple questions.

Lolinator--turn your site into an LolCat

Yep, type in your website and it'll take your base template, turn it into LolCat format, and change your text into lolz and iz's, etc.

And of course it adds a few pictures chosen just for you....like the one above. How did it know I was so obsessed with food!?!

Try it out!

~Edit~ I almost forgot! This was found by someone over on Bloggeries a long time back (at this point, more than 6 months ago, ha!) and I still had it saved. I wanted to throw her name out there for everyone because she's pretty cool....and hey, if she discovers things like this, she deserves some linky love, hehe. You can find Eve over at Confessions of a Housewife or Caffeine-Overload.

Cakesicles....what were they thinking?

Cakesicles.

Who the heck thinks of this sort of thing?

Really? Cake on a stick? Come on! lol

But hey, that sort of stuff is what this place is all about, right? Maybe I should rename this place "quirky kitchen items" or "quirky products people come up with when they're really, really weird."

Well maybe that's a little bit too long, but it seems like I just keep coming across things like this!

I do think it's a cute idea and a great alternative to traditional cakes or popsicles. I can see this being a hit at a birthday party....or a fun treat to decorate at a slumber party, etc.
