World's Largest Arcade Cabinet Built To Make Gamers Feel Like A Kid Again

Arcade games were a big part of many a gamer's childhood, but the cabinets on which we played our favorite games had to be small enough that it could share the arcade floor with all the other games.

But those of us who became fascinated with arcade games at a very early age remember arcade cabinets as giant noisy and colorful, with lots of fun sounds and flashing lights emanating from the machine.

We had to stand on a chair to see the screen, a feeling adults couldn't effectively recreate until arcade enthusiast Jason Camberis built the world's largest arcade machine.

The massive Arcade DeLuxe cabinet stands fifteen feet tall, contains over 200 playable arcade games and took Jason over two years to build, and it also earned him a Guinness World Record for Largest Arcade Machine.

Judging from the pics the cabinet has really made Jason feel like a kid again!

A Cool Collection Of Charming Airline Ads From The Jet Age

Vintage advertisements have a visual charm and nostalgiac allure that continues to influence artists and designers well after the ad has run its course.

Part of this longevity comes from the universal appeal carefully crafted by ad agency artists hired to evoke a feeling with their artwork, which is why the ads created for airlines during the Jet Age make you want to soar.

Designer Matthias C. Hühne has put together a wonderful collection of vintage airline ads in a book called Airline Visual Identity 1945-1975, which focuses on an important time in both airline and graphic design history.

Photographer Captures Unconventional Friendship Between Shar Pei And Cat

Shar Peis are known for being a fairly temperamental breed, one that distrusts strangers and doesn't easily make friends with humans or their fellow dogs.

They were bred to guard palaces not make friends, so they often have a hard time adjusting to the world of domesticated pet life where they're expected to be more snuggly than scary.

But it appears Paddington the Shar-Pei missed that memo, and his friendship with feline housemate Butler the cat proves that not all Shar-Peis are ornery towards other animals.

Paddington and Butler's adorable relationship is brilliantly documented by their pack leader, photographer Annie Jacob, and she shares the sweetest shots on her Instagram account @anniepaddington.

Video Essay Explains Why Vancouver Never Plays Itself In Movies

Hollywood has always been the hub of the entertainment industry, because it's where the whole biz of show began and where most movies and TV shows are filmed to this day.

But there's one place in North America that has earned the nickname “Hollywood North”- Vancouver, British Columbia.

(Image Link)

Vancouver is seen as an ultimate outdoor shooting location for TV and film because it can be made to look like nearly any major city in the world with a little digital compositing and some visual elements to show us we're in an American city.

The image above shows how easy it is to turn Vancouver into Seattle by adding the Space Needle in the background and a Pike St. sign over the road.

Tony Zhou of Every Frame A Painting created this video homage to "Hollywood North", revealing how strange it is that Vancouver is the third largest filmmaking city in North America and yet Vancouver Never Plays Itself. (Video contains NSFW language)

Guy Recreates Photos Of His Late Wife With His Three-Year-Old Daughter

Grief usually makes people look at photos of the dearly departed in one of two ways- either they become the most important mementos in the world, or they get shoved in a box because looking at them causes too much pain.

When Rafael del Col lost his wife Tatiane Valques and unborn child in a tragic road accident back in 2011 he was devastated and left to raise their daughter Raisa alone.

Left trying to figure out how to raise a daughter and deal with grief at the same time, Rafael focused on raising Raisa and honoring Tatiane's memory, and together they overcame grief naturally.

When Raisa was three years old her loving father decided to honor her mother's memory by recreating a photo series shot a week before Rafael and Tatiane were married in 2009, with adorable daughter Raisa standing in for her mother.

The series is an exercise in overcoming grief and paying homage to a loved one who was taken away far too early, and even though Raisa will never really know her mother they'll always be connected by this heartwarming photo shoot.

Bat Blood Is Like Two Or More Animated Parodies In One!

Superman is a big fan of Taylor Swift, which drives Batman up the wall when they're carpooling to work together, and that's where the bad blood between them originated.

Now the two most super of superheroes are about to square off on the big screen in Batman V Superman, but before that flick hits theaters they're going to war in an animated spoof of the music video for Taylor Swift's “Bad Blood”.

(YouTube Link)

Bat Blood was created by the How It Should Have Ended team to celebrate their 10th year on the interwebs, and what better way to celebrate ten years of star studded animated parodies than a super sized crossover parody of epic proportions?!

(And in case you were wondering how it compares to the original here's a link to the Taylor Swift video)

Men Are Asked To Describe The Wedding Of Their Dreams

Somewhere along the way weddings became all about what the bride wants, and grooms were assumed to have little to no interest in the planning of a wedding from then on, but weddings in the 21st century are sure to be a bit different.

With the legalization of same sex marriage and more likeminded couples having geeky themed weddings than ever before, weddings are finally being planned the way they're supposed to be- by the couple together as one.

(YouTube Link)

BuzzFeed asked a few of their male staff members to describe their perfect wedding, and as expected they had a lot of fun and interesting new ideas about what weddings have been missing, like pinball and sliders.

League Shield - Justice To The Sixth Power


League Shield by Brinkerhoff

The core members of the Justice League had been working together for so long that they decided to create a crest that would reflect their unity and still represent each of them at the same time. The Bat symbol and Superman's mighty S shield came together to form the core shape, with Wonder Woman's wing accents and Flash's lightning bolt added for flavor. Then the two greenies Green Lantern and Martian Manhunter combined to finish off the piece in emerald style. They were as one, and now they had a hybrid symbol to represent their unified front against the Legion of Doom...

Show your love for that entire superhero squad at once with this League Shield t-shirt by Brinkerhoff, it's one bold way to bring all your favorite heroes together on one shirt!

Holy Donut - A Baker's Blessing


Holy Donut by Moysche Designs

Blessed are those who partake of the baked goods, with the halo shaped donut chief among those tasty baked treats, so the man who eats a dozen in a sitting is twelve times as holy. So sayeth the fool from Springfield Homer Simpson, whose divine "D'oh!" can be heard all the way up in heaven and always makes God chuckle a little. Homer is truly pure of heart (except for all that fat clogging up his arteries), and he watches over the Simpsons like a drunken deity who never wants to get off his duff and help anyone!

For those who refuse to see eating baked goods as a sin there's this Holy Donut t-shirt by Moysche Designs, a tee that's sure to become one of your most sacred artifacts.

This Contact Juggler Will Mesmerize You With His Magical Skills

Juggling is generally assumed to involve multiple objects (like balls or bowling pins) flying through the air, being passed from hand to hand in an overhead arc, but contact juggling isn't like ordinary juggling.

However, when you watch a true master contact juggler at work it's every bit as satisfying as traditional juggling, and may cause the viewer to go into a contact juggling induced trance.

(YouTube Link)

This new video from Kuma Films shows contact juggler AJ working his magic on a set of acrylic spheres that appear to dance around with a life of their own in AJ's magic hands.
