Friends don’t get better than this. They could always have your back, they could be your groomsmen at your wedding, hell they could even give a kidney to you and they won’t ever beat these guys who pranked their friend by replacing his entire home plumbing system with beer. As in every faucet would spew out sweet delicious beer instead of water. As in beers on every tap. It’s a dream come true.

We “social masters” are tired of being discriminated against. Why all of these “one friend, two piece” necklaces? I could never give one of my minions special treatment, because then my other minions would feel sad. I value my worthless social minions, and am excited to hear that I can now include them all! Thanks, Pizza Slice Friendship Necklace!
How to use the Pizza Slice Friendship Necklace:
First, you will need to get eight friends. This can be done relatively easily, as long as you’re not an awkward turtle and can carry a conversation. If you get sweaty pits and pass out at the thought of talking to others, then a silent gesture will be enough. (Bring $20′s, just in case you happen to look extra weird that day.)
Next, you will need to purchase the beautiful piece(s) of jewelry shown above.
The only thing left for you to do, after having purchased the Pizza Slice Friendship Necklaces, is to force your eight friends to wear them. If you need to accidentally on purpose make your friends go temporarily unconscious, then do what you have to do. And if you get caught, I was telling you the whole time that it is entirely illegal and immoral to ask unconscious people to befriend you. Only befriend conscious people – they are less likely to have diseases and will stay friends with you for a longer period of time.
If you followed all of the above steps exactly as they were written, one of your friends should be attractive as the friend shown below: (complete with the out-of-place seductive expression):
Remember to remind friends that these necklaces are not for eating. These necklaces are for wearing. If you do have a group “necklace-eating party,” just make sure that everyone keeps the chain on so that you can pull the pizza slice back out in case of an emergency. (Hint: swallowing a metal slice of pizza is almost always an immediate medical emergency.)
You can pick up one of these Pizza Slice Necklaces for £14 (~$19 USD) over at the Lazy Oaf online store. Lazy oaf.

So it seems that PlayStation 4 owners will have more friends than their Xbox One counterparts — well, you know, in theory, at least. Sony announced this morning, by way of rather chipper Q&A video, that the PS4 will have a Party Chat to call its own, along with friends lists that support up to 2,000 users — that’s double the number that Microsoft announced toward the end of May (though, all said, both numbers are a big improvement over the last gens’ 100-person cap). Good news for social PlayStation gamers, though you might want to start saving up now — that’s a whole lot of extra birthdays gifts next year.

You’re not looking to bang every person you meet online. Sometimes, you’re just looking for friends. But somehow, meeting someone you know online platonically has become a far more awkward endeavor than a random OKCupid date. You know her but you dont know her. Do you shake hands? Do you hug? Do you do that open-palmed half-wave? God forbid she goes for the hug and you go for the handshake like you’re in some jerking, uncoordinated, chest-poking dance.

Making new friends over cold brew isn’t particularly difficult, but making those friendships Facebook-official requires a bit more effort — unless you have Buddy Cup, that is. Developed by ad outfit Agencia Africa and creative studio Bolha for Budweiser Brazil, the drinking vessel makes folks who toast with each other friends on Zuckerberg and Co.’s social network as soon as their beverages collide, with an LED lighting up to confirm the new acquaintance. Partygoers link their Facebook profile with the LilyPad-based grail by scanning a QR code underneath the glass with an app from the brewer, and they’ll be on their way to making new pals. The Drum reports that the Buddy Cup will be used at concerts, festivals and parties sponsored by The King of Beers, but we’re sure intrepid imbibers can hack some together for use at their own soirees. Hit the jump to for a video of the contraption.

Sure you have friends. Sure people Like your pictures on Facebook and Instagram. Sure people favorite your tweets. But what would these people really do for you? None of ’em would take a bullet for you! Some would make a hashtag. All will talk about how much they miss you on their profiles. Sometimes, that’s enough for me. More »
While the fall TV premiere season may have cooled off (who’s excited for the season premiere of Whitney? No one? Ok.) there’s a slew of videogames and movies arriving for our home viewing pleasure. That includes several blockbuster titles, plus hits from the archives as varied as Lawrence of Arabia and Bill And Ted’s Excellent Adventure. Look below for the highlights this week, followed after the break by our weekly listing of what to look out for in TV, Blu-ray and videogames.
Call of Duty: Black Ops II
It’s fall, there’s a new Call of Duty game. Killstreaks, multiplayer, elite, etc. A new tweak this time around is the ability to live stream matches via Youtube and other platforms, but we suspect you’ve already decided whether or not this year’s update is a must-buy for you. Joystiq’s review should be live soon of course, if you need a final go-ahead.
($59.99 on Amazon)
Friends: the Complete Series
Fans of the series can finally get every single episode in high definition (it was recorded on film and has been airing in HD in syndication for a while, so you should have some idea of the quality) this week. The better news is that while Friends: The Complete Series carries a $300 MSRP, the actual price for all 296 episodes is down to $149 if you’re willing to dive in.
($149.99 on Amazon)
Doctor Who: Series Seven, Part 1
While what could be* the final go-round of Matt Smith as the Doctor has not yet concluded, you can get the first half of the season on Blu-ray this week. Companions Amy and Rory are still along for the ride which includes encounters with (of course) the Daleks, and more. At five episodes, it may be worth holding off for the season to finish, but at least it’s pretty cheap. (Update: Despite hinting at plans to leave the role, there is not yet confirmation about Matt Smith’s Who plans past this season.)
($19.99 on Amazon)

What’s better than saving some precious and valuable time, right? Well, if you’re a power Facebook resident and FedEx is your carrier of choice, then you’ll be happy to hear all about Ship to Friends. With this new Facebook app, the company previously known as Federal Express will make it easier for you to send your friends packages without ever having to virtually step out of Zuck’s social network. Essentially, this means you’ll be able to simply select a user from your Friends list, add the necessary shipping info and, finally, choose the delivery speed (i.e. Premium Choice or Best Deal) and pay for the service — naturally, however, you’ll still have to get the package ready and drop it off at the nearest FedEx shop. Unfortunately, Ship to Friends is only available to Stateside folks for shipments within the US, and FedEx made no mention of when, or if, it plans to start offering its new handy service elsewhere.
