Frosty the Cheeseball Man is just like your everyday snowman, they melt away, except they are far, far more delicious. This terrifying treat was made by the same genius who invented the churpumple pie/cake crossover. http://www.charlesphoenix.com/2011/12/frosty-the-cheeseball-man/ Via Geekosystem

The magic of movies is the fact that we can suspend our disbelief and actually imagine we are wherever the movie takes place, whether in the past or a completely imaginary realm. That's why these great behind the scenes pictures of famous films are so fun to look at. Enjoy more over at BuzzFeed.

If you like cheeseburgers and you like Nissin Cup Noodles, then you might just enjoy their new Big Cheese Meat Cup Noodles. While it looks like regular hamburger meat, it's actually ground pork also featuring:

"Cheese, crisp red bell peppers, cabbage and onions with classic curly noodles and a rich soy sauce flavored soup."

Even if it's not totally cheeseburgerish, it still sounds pretty good, but I have to admit, it looks disgusting in its freeze dried form.

Aspiring wrapping paper company Gift Couture is trying to get off the ground with the help of KickStarter. Their first product? A six-sheet of collection of wrapping paper that will help you disguise your presents as cheeseburgers.

Of course, in the meanwhile, you can always entertain yourself with the Neatoshop's great Pi gift wrap.

You already know that chimps have been known to throw their own poop, but as it turns out, the more often they throw it and the better they aim, the smarter they happen to be. As it turns out, the poop throwing might be specifically related to the part of their brains that handle communication:

The chimps who throw their poop the most frequently and most accurately not only have the largest and best developed motor cortex — duh — but also comparatively well-connected and developed Broca’s areas and left hemispheres in general. If that wasn’t enough, the kicker is that the specific areas and connections that are well-connected and developed are the same ones that play important parts in speech for humans.

I wonder what the results indicate about humans who are good at communication.

If you love Harry Potter, then you'd better celebrate your geek-interests with your own great golden snitch ornaments. They seem pretty easy to make as long as you just have a golden glass ornament, some tissue paper, wire and glitter -that means you could have tons of them on your tree if you want.

Americans may love their junk food, but that doesn’t mean they’ll scarf down just any old snack. That’s why the big name brands have so many failed flavors, even after spending thousands on marketing and development for said flavors. Here are some of the many flops created by some of the biggest names in junk food.

1. Coke

Perhaps the most documented failure of any American company was Coke II, aka “New Coke.” Humorously, despite the massive reaction against the beverage, Coke II actually smoked both Pepsi and original Coke in taste tests. While most people did prefer it, the idea of losing a beloved American classic was too much for some people, who protested and called the company headquarters until the old version was reintroduced three months later. Coke II continued to be sold until 2002 when it was pulled due to poor sales. Of course, Coke II wasn’t the brand’s only failure, there was also Coca Cola with Lemon, Coca Cola Black Cherry Vanilla, Coca Cola Black (a coffee-flavored cola) and Coca Cola C2 (a low-carb version).

2. Pepsi

When you think of failed Pepsi flavors, let’s face it, one variety seems to come to mind before all others –Crystal Pepsi. While it might not have been the marketing disaster that Coke II was, it was still a huge failure and ended up being discontinued in the US only a year after its introduction. A little while later, Pepsi tried again with a citrus-flavored version called Clear from Pepsi, but that flavor also bombed and was quickly discontinued. A few other Pepsi failures include Pepsi Kona (a coffee-flavored Pepsi that was only sold on the East Coast before it was discontinued), Pepsi Vanilla, Pepsi AM (Pepsi’s attempt to compete with coffee as the morning beverage of choice, this one contained far more caffeine than the average Pepsi), Pepsi Blue (a berry-flavored, non-cola beverage).

3. Hershey

Hershey’s flops may not be as well-known as Coke or Pepsi, but they have far more discontinued flavors than either of those cola brands. You may remember some of these flavors but there are so many, at least a few will probably be new to you. A few original products they discontinued included Bar None (a chocolate bar with two wafers and peanuts), Hershey’s S’mores (a chocolate bar with graham crackers and marshmallows), Swoops (chocolate slices shaped like potato chips) and Hershey’s Sticks (chocolate sticks individually wrapped and sold together in boxes). They’ve also discontinued quite a few variations on their popular products, such as Hershey’s Cookies and Mint, Hershey’s Kissables (Hershey’s Kisses with candy shells) and Hershey’s Bites, which were bite-sized versions of their classic candies sold in bags. Additionally, the company also experimented with beverages, discontinuing a premade bottled milk drink called Hershey’s Milkshake and their Hershey’s Chocolate Milk Mix.

Who knew that Super Mario and the X Men could go together so well? Apparently artist Casey Edwards did because she's the one who came up with these clever mash ups.

Kickstarter might be great for starting new projects, but I certainly support the idea of Kickstopper. Personally, I'd be happy to donate my support to stopping the new Akira movie.

Rock stars aren't generally known for their amazing acting skills, but that doesn't stop television executives from working them into different cameo roles whenever possible. Mental Floss has a great article with some of the greatest (and most terrible) musician cameos ever made. My personal favorite was Michael Stipe in The Adventures of Pete & Pete. Any of you remember these episodes?
