Pizza Is Mathematically Delicious

It's in the name, pizza was just invented to be delicious based on mathematical formulas. It makes so much sense now. Kind of reminds me of our puntastically fun Pi shirt in  the Neatoshop.

Super Realistic Disney Princesses

Finnish graphic design student Jirka Väätäinen has recently been turning Disney princesses into realistic looking drawings of women. The results are stunning, even if Jasmine looks a little too much like Kim Kardashian to only be coincidence. Link


When Slipper Sizing Goes Wrong

We all know just how important decimal points are, but just in case you need a reminder, just check out this guy's custom made slipper.

Because his feet are slightly uneven, Tom Boddingham ordered them from a custom slipper making company. Unfortunately, the workers filling the order mistook the size 14.50 slipper for an order for a size 1450. That's right, it's 100 times the size he ordered, making it big enough for him to sit in.

On the upside, the company fixed the error and now Mr. Boddingham has a nice pair of slippers and an awesome new chair. Tom says he's hoping to sell it on eBay, where he will probably make a hefty profit. After all, it's not every day that someone finds a bear-foot slipper the size of an actual bear.

I've never bothered carving mini pumpkins because the process seems so unrewarding compared to carving a regular pumpkin. That being said, I might just change my mind after seeing these adorable string lights created by Evil Mad Scientist Labs.
