10 Weird Fairy Tale Plot Pieces That Are Usually Left Out



You've all seen the Disney versions of these classic fairy tales, but the company took a few liberties with the stories so they wouldn't be so gruesome. For example, in Cinderella:
We all know that Cinderella's nasty relations try to hoodwink the prince by cramming their feet into the glass slipper. What you may not remember is that these two hellcats chopped off their toes and heels to win his affections. Also, the prince wouldn't have noticed the blood gushing from the slipper if a duo of chatty pigeons hadn't informed him otherwise.

Nothing says romance like a shoe filled with the blood of your evil step-sisters.

6 Utterly Insane Video Games



If you're like me, you think that Katamari is pretty crazy, but these 6 games make Katamari look like the suburban housewife of video games. Take, for example, LSD:
Bumping into anything or anyone will cause the screen to fade and teleport you to another random place. After a while, you might start seeing the same places again, so the game keeps it interesting by doing things like replacing doors with women's faces or filling the walls with eyes that slowly follow you as you walk past.

Believe it or not, that's not the craziest one on this list either.

Think Woodchips Are Scraps?



Artist Sergey Bobkov might get you to reconsider when you see his amazing artworks that have been created with woodchips:
Sergey Bobkov uses a self-developed technique to keep the chips from crumbling, soaking the woodchips in water for a number of days, which then makes them flexible enough to sculpt. He primarily works with cembra pine, but will use other wood as occasion demands, including Siberian cedar. Each piece takes about six months to complete. The statues themselves are a work of pure passion, and Bobkov has refused to sell any of his pieces, despite any number of generous offers.

Six months of work for something you'll never sell? That's a lot of dedication to your art.

The Weird & Wonderful Wartime Cartoons of Dr. Seuss
