How to Make a Twitter Cake - Neatorama

Two years ago, Ann Reardon wowed the internet with her cake shaped like the Instagram logo. With every slice through the core, you got the full symbol. This cake is similar, but shows Larry, Twitter’s iconic bird.

The calls it a “surprise inside dessert.” To make your own, get a tall, roughly cylindrical container. Print out a template for your logo, sized so that it fits easily within the container. Get 0.3 millimeter-thick aluminum flashing. Mold it into the shape of logo.

Then mix a chocolate cremeux, which apparently is something like a gelatinous mousse. Also make a white chocolate mousse for the white background, an orange glaze for the crust and a pate de sucre for the base. You can find the full recipe here.

My friends and I were playing a tabletop game of Aberrant and came up with a whole bunch of these.

* To differentiate between black and navy blue at any distance in any light.
* To know Pi, all of it.
* To see the future, but only far enough to say "Oh crap..." (Totally awesome to see this for TimeBomb on No Heroics).
* To change the color of your hair to any shade of brown you want.

I could go on.

I don't know why... but giraffes really really like me. I honestly have half a dozen stories (from visits to zoos, state fairs, etc.) where they act like they know me and want to follow me around. Does that count as one?

I always loved this concept. THere was an old PC game called the Heroes of Hoboken, or something like that, where they had wacky character like "Red Tape man" or some guy who just raise a person's cholesterol.

Some that my friends and I came up with were:
* The ability to control wicker (grow, move, shape, etc).
* The ability to sense headaches in others.
* Intstant tooth regeneration. (pulling out them is still 'mundane').
* Being able to make the skin on any visable fruit or vegitable vanish.
* Able to tell anyone's age upon taste.

and some other ones I can't recall right now. :P

Those are all great, and beat my gaydar and pms detector hands down.

I like the preview for Wolverine where the bad guy says, "Do you even know how to kill me?" and W answers, "I'm gonna cut your head off, see if that works."

"* The ability to control wicker (grow, move, shape, etc)"

I would actually love that ability, though can you move it around like Magneto?

Still you could just grow the wicker so big it forces people out of widows in high rise towers!

I would have to go with ability to control the growth of mold, within natural growing perameters. How about the ability to possess a blade of grass?

Another useless super power from Heroes Unlimited: Color Change, or the ability to change an object's color at will.

I think you've described the usless power incorrectly. It is only bullets 13 and up that are stopped. Hence the 12 bullet holes in the body.

The wicker growth thing could be used creativly. Some of the stuff we came up with could be actually functional if you put some ingenuity to it, but it was still pretty rediculous, esp in the context of other super heroes. Sure, Mr. Wicker could do some amazing things to humans, but coudln't really stand up to most xmen, etc...

That's one reason I loved 'The Tick'. The Ottoman Empress was my favorite. (She controlled furniture - it was her 'Ottoman Empire')

Please try "Hero Corp" in Google, this is a new french TV show talking about a lost small town where elderly superheroes or useless powers ones are living.

It's quite funny ! Like "Captain Acid" who previously sent acid fluids with his barehands and now only sends soft shampoo, or Mental who can make you do anything ... only if you're intend to do it !

... remember about "Mystery Men" a movie with ben stiller where you have a guy who can be invisible when nobody look at him !

I think I have SPATS, spontaneous psychic audible tourette syndrome. I will say exactly the wrong thing at the right time, its uncanny. Like when my sysadmin was buying coffee, and I was recalling the one and only time I've been ice skating and I felt like "a fairy", come to find out my admin and the guy making coffee were closeted. I also ruin many a surprise party.

Awesome! Heroes Unlimited,I used to love that game! Anyone fancy a game? I'll GM?

Reminds me of a game my friends and I play called Superpower Superdeficiency. You have a superpower, but conversely, a superdeficiency that totally negates your superpower.

For example: You can fly but you are insanely afraid of heights.
