Soup on the Rocks: Making Cocktails with Campbell Soup

Alex

๐Ÿธ In 1955, Campbell Soup had an idea of how to sell more of their canned beef bouillon: make them into nonalcoholic cocktails! Thus Soup on the Rocks was born. Later, they also came up with Frisky Sour (Campbell's beef broth mixed with ice and lemon juice) and chicken soup martini. You can guess what that one contained.

๐ŸŽฅ Movie theater attendance has been declining for a while.

Alex

๐ŸŽ‚ What in the world is that strange cake supposed to be? You'd never guess the answer.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Seattle-based artist Sunday Nobody thinks ahead. How far ahead? How about 10,000 years into the future when civilization would presumably no longer know the joy of Flamin' Hot Cheetos.

Ghostbusters Firehouse Vacation Rental Home

Alex

๐Ÿ‘ป That "something strange in your neighborhood" turns out to be a clever promo by Vacasa. The vacation rental company transformed an old 1900's firehouse in Portland, Oregon into the iconic Ghostbusters Firehouse.

This Horrifying Demon Spontaneously Emerged and Showed Up Again and Again in AI-Generated Images

Alex

๐Ÿ‘น You've undoubtedly heard of AI-generated images, where surprisingly life-like images are generated from text descriptions by AI tools. Well, it didn't take long for the ghost (demon?) in the machine to start showing its face. Meet Loab, an AI-generated demon that spontaneously emerged and now shows up again and again in many of the generated images.

You'll Never Guess What the Inside of this Normal-Looking House Looks Like

The Largest Corn Maze in the World Celebrates the 60th Anniversary of James Bond

Alex

The name is Corn, James Corn.

The world's largest corn maze, located the Richardson Adventure Farm in Spring Grove, Illinois, is celebrating the 60th anniversary of Agent 007 of Her Majesty's Secret Service, James Bond.

The maze displays the images of (almost) all James Bond actors - Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton, Sean Connery, Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig - as well as other details from the movie, including the gun barrel, an Aston Martin DB5 car and the Casino de Monte-Carlo.

The "James Corn" (hah) maze was created by planting corn using GPS-equipped tractors, which automatically dropped seeds according to certain patterns. After the seed sprouted into corn plants, they get a maze with 10 miles of trail winding through 28 acres of live corn.

The James Bond corn maze is open to the public from September 10 to October 30, 2022. Besides getting lost in the maze, visitors can also participate in pumpkin picking, zip lines and other activities.
