I don’t think I am as good at anything as these guys are at juggling. Seriously, like not even walking or sleeping or eating or brushing my teeth. They’re so good at throwing multiple random objects in the air and then catching it perfectly that they must be able to use their minds to control inanimate objects. Or be able to freeze time. It’s truly impressive.

When the ground beneath you stops being solid, what do you do? Jump on it like a trampoline! Seriously, it may be a little dangerous but it looks like oodles of fun. Like you’re walking on water only it’s really still the ground.

Even though it’s incredibly hard to believe and goes against sound Sun rises in the east and sets in the west logic, Chris Hemsworth (and to a lesser extent Thor) is not a perfect being that doesn’t make goofy mistakes. This gag reel proves he’s human after all! Just like us! And sometimes moments get awkward and sometime he falls and sometime he flubs up. But damn, he makes it look so fun to screw up.

Sneaky isn’t your ordinary card game. While most will pit you against friends, family, and acquaintances, Sneaky will challenge you to interact with others outside of your usual circle instead.
It’s essentially a stack of dares that encourages you to be sneaky as you accomplish the objective printed on it. It’s described as a card game about “creating fun and creative social interactions, breaking up the tedium of everyday life.” From the looks of it, Sneaky can do just about that – and more.
The main goal of the game is to get rid of all your cards by following each cards own rule set. The game works best in common social environments. Places like malls, school campuses, offices, conferences, camps, youth groups, parties, and other public places. In most situations there is a player who is playing the game and a non-player who is not. With the player interacting in some way with the non-player.
Sneaky was created by 16-year-old Harry Lee back in 2009, with the help of hundreds of volunteers who helped create ideas for the deck.
The best part? You can just download Sneaky Cards and print them at home to begin the fun. You can also contribute your own ideas to the project over on Reddit.

Robots seem to be everywhere these days. They’re in our factories, our schools, our homes, and now they’re even in our theme parks. Over in South Korea, a futuristic new theme park is being built. The theme? Robotics, of course.
Do you know what the most disappointing thing about being an adult is? It’s not the slow metabolism or the achy joints or the plateau of growth, it’s the fact that we’re all failures to our childhood selves. We don’t eat candy, we don’t play with toys and we drive responsible vehicles. Not John Bitmead though, he’s the type of full-fledged adult who wouldn’t disappoint his childhood self because he made a street legal Little Tikes Car that can zoom up to 70mph.

Selecting an engagement ring, is one of the biggest decisions a man will
make in his life. This is a fact both because of its meaning – it isn’t
just jewelry, it is a lifetime commitment after all – but also because
it is the one item that most women will wear every day. Making a
meaningful selection that is symbolic of the relationship, while meeting
her aesthetic preferences is important. Sometimes this means a
traditional diamond; other times the choice is a bit more heroic.
Pet parents will soon have another way to communicate with their dogs and cats while they’re at work or out of town. PetChatz, which will ship in just a few months, is now pre-selling its Greet & Treat Videophone – imagine Skype that delivers treats and scents!
Screw the Grammys. The only thing I want to see tonight is this tiny short by Wayne Unten showing the imagined takeoff of Olivia Wright in 1903, "the first to pilot the great grasshoppers of North America."
