The Art Of Yarn Bombing


(YouTube Link)

Yarn Bombing is the softest and cuddliest form of street art, and Yarn Bombers are busy making the world a brighter and cozier place.

In this video, episode 12 of the horribly titled series American Hipster Presents, we get to hear from Philadelphia yarnaholic Ishknits, and find out why Yarn Bombing is the only street art unanimously approved by grandmothers across the globe!

(Barely NSFW due to language - I almost didn't mention it because it's only one word in a seven minute long video)

Here's A Funny GIF About Facebook Stock



As I mentioned above, here's a GIF about Facebook stock prices plummeting, and the movie version of Zuckerberg isn't taking the news very well.

It took me on an emotional rollercoaster ride and wasted ten valuable seconds of my life that I'll probably miss when the Grim Reaper shows up pointing his bony finger at me. Yay for the goofy crap found on the interwebs!

Online Comic Series - Romantically Apocalyptic



If you like your comic strips darkly comedic with a dash of dystopia and a wickedly cool graphic style then you have to check out Alexiuss Vitaly's online series Romantically Apocalyptic.

It chronicles Zee Captain and his Second In Command as they make their way across the post apocalyptic ruins of a massive cityscape, looking for love and inspiration as to just what they're supposed to be doing.

So stay indoors this summer and let Zee Captain take your mind on a tour of humanity's hilariously bleak future.  --thanks Travis!

Engraving Inspired Street Art By Phlegm



Phlegm is hitting the U.K. streets with a fresh style straight from the olden days, a decidedly illustrative style inspired by woodblock printing and engraving.

His whimsical works add a sense of mystery and fairy tale charm to the cityscapes in which they reside, and it must be fun for urban explorers to come across one of Phlegm's pieces lurking under a bridge.

Fascinating Illustrations By Anatoly Fomenko



Russian mathematician Anatoly Fomenko creates illustrations which are both expressions of mathematical concepts and visual  depictions of his innermost thoughts and emotions.

With razor sharp use of perspective, abstract imagery and many shades of gray, Anatoly's works are at once amazing and confounding, and would look right at home on the cover of a Pink Floyd album.

You can take your eyes on a long, strange trip through Anatoly's works at the Juxtapoz link below, and try not to get lost in there!

Epic Garbage Pail Kids Back Tattoo



This is what happens when parents refuse to let their children keep their precious Garbage Pail Kids trading cards, or when an undying obsession becomes an (arguably) bad decision.

I'm assuming that his name is Ozzy, which is why this is his favorite GPK card, and this guy seems like such a superfan that he probably has a copy of the 1987 Garbage Pail Kids disaster movie on DVD.

I used to have that card, I traded it for Loogie Leia!

Movie Trailer - Wreck-It Ralph


(YouTube Link)

Disney's upcoming animated feature is guaranteed to make hardcore gamers go squeee! with delight.

It's an homage to old school, quarter plunking arcade gaming called Wreck-It Ralph, and it stars John C. Reilly, Sarah Silverman and Jack McBrayer, to name a few stars from this amazing cast.

Fans of funny are sure to find a chuckle, and I'm sure it will inspire a new generation of classic video game enthusiasts to pick up their control pad and get those pixels moving!

Hand Drawn Scientific Illustrations By Peter Jellitsch



These scientific illustrations look like they were made by a machine, and in a way they are machine made. However, the machine in this case is an amazing  human artist by the name of Peter Jellitsch.

These hand drawn pieces reveal Peter's mind at work, creating what he calls an "analog translation of digital data", but I prefer to think of them as the blankets that science built.

Toys Photographed In Humorous Situations



Ryan Roberts likes to set up humorous situations with toys then shoots a bunch of pics of the scene, like a guy who wasn't allowed to play with toys looking to exact revenge via photographic playtime.

His series is like the photo version of the stop motion TV series Robot Chicken, and is sure to appeal to the young and the young at heart.

Hilarious Geek Mashup Art By Evgeny Yakovlev



Evgeny Yakovlev is an illustrator from Karaganda, Kazahkstan who specializes in ridiculous acts of geek mashupery.

That's clearly not a real word, but sometimes it takes a little creative vocabulary to describe geek art this awesome.

Take a gander at Boba Fett collecting a bounty on the nefarious Road Runner, Edward Scissorhands discussing family with Wolverine, and twelve more epic works of geekus maximus mashupalus.

Okay, I've clearly taken this stupid word creation thing a bit too far!

A Paper Version Of The Prometheus Trailer


(YouTube Link)

If you find the trailer for the upcoming Ridley Scott film Prometheus a little too good looking, maybe this paper version will suit you better.

With some extremely lackluster special effects and a drawing style that would make a five year old feel better about their own scribbles, this is the least spectacular trailer for Prometheus that you'll ever see!

What Your Favorite Drinks Look Like Under A Microscope



Photographer and beverage enthusiast William LeGoullon decided to explore his love of the liquids on a microscopic level, and these fascinating photos of your favorite beverages are the result.

Pictured above is the beautiful, leaf-like structure of beer, and William's series includes the other four most consumed beverages- tea, coffee, wine and cola.

It's like a tour of the wet stuff from an ant's perspective, and the differences in texture are compelling, but don't take my word for it-hit the jump and see what you've been sipping on!

Comedy Short - Reset Your Password


(YouTube Link)

It seems like websites get some kind of sick pleasure from making us change our passwords on a regular basis, and the qualifications for an effective password are becoming more ridiculous every day.

This comedy short from UCB Comedy stars Caitlin Downing as a gal who gets no love when it comes to choosing a new password.

I feel your pain Caitlin, and I hope you have your new password written down somewhere, 'cause that sucker is gonna be hard to remember!
