adorable, innovative dog Halloween costumes from Instructables that you
can easily and inexpensively make yourself….
Grumpy Cat is Every Disney Princess
Posted in: Today's ChiliPrepare to have all your favorite memories from childhood invaded by none other than Grumpy Cat. She’s a huge sensation on the interwebs and people young and old recognize her as the cat from “that meme.”
Grumpy Cat is often the subject of artwork, and she’s the inspiration once again in artist Eric Proctor aka TsaoShi’s latest gallery on deviantArt.
Eric’s work puts Grumpy Cat at the center of iconic Disney movie moments, from the Little Mermaid on her rock with the water splashing all about or that scene from Lion King where Rafiki is raising little Simba. (On a side note, I can’t believe that I still remember the baboon’s name after all these years!)
You can check out the rest of the series in the gallery below.
Be sure to head on over to TsaoShin’s gallery to check out the amusing titles for each image.
What would you do if you saw a vending machine offering free treats? You’d most likely jump at the chance to grab a couple of them before the machine runs out.
So there you are, thinking that it’s your lucky day, as you reach into the machine to get your treat…
…but instead, begin screaming your head off when a dead-looking hand grabs yours.
I hate to break it to you, but you’ve just been had. This was probably the ghastly experience that people who chanced upon the Scares vending machine in Dublin, Ireland had. The entire set-up involved having comedian comedian Marcus Olaoire hide inside the machine and wait for unwitting victims to reach for a treat.
The entire thing was part of a Halloween publicity stunt for a snack company. Too bad they didn’t post a video of people’s reactions.

Squirrels might be tiny, but they can be huge pests sometimes. However, for people who don’t live in countries where they’re commonly spotted, they’re among the most adorable mammals ever. Although they can be destructive sometimes, they’re also heroes in their own little way. For example, they’re responsible for planting lots of trees in various areas, as they often forget where they buried their acorns.
Depicting them in a totally different light is deviantArt artist Santiago Perez.
His Photoshopped creations don’t just depict squirrels as mere heroes. They’re superheroes, and some of the biggest ones yet. His gallery features the tiny creatures shopped to make them look like they’ve donned the costume of Spider-Man, Iron Man, and Batman. In the case of the Hulk, I’d say he decked out the squirrel in the Hulk’s typical non-costume.
And while he’s not really a superhero, my favorite from the bunch is Yoda Squirrel. Check out the complete series over on Santiago’s DeviantArt page. Which one’s your favorite?

It’s easy to gain weight, but it’s exponentially harder to lose it. As you probably already know by now, crash diets won’t work. What does work is cleaning up your diet and adding more exercise into your lifestyle.
Then, of course, there’s Stink Yourself Slim.
I wouldn’t say it’s revolutionary, but I would say that it’s definitely unusual.
Stink Yourself Slim is basically a stink bomb in a bottle, but you’re not supposed to use it to prank others. Instead, you’re supposed to spritz some and smell it so you’ll lose your appetite. It’s logical: the less food you eat, the more weight you lose. It was created by Alex Fontaine and was inspired by a real-life event when a skunk crashed a buffet and ruined everyone’s appetite.
It’s being advertised as something that curbs emotional eating as it “works on brain areas that control motivation and behavior.” I’m not sure how stinking up the place affects a person’s motivation, but I will agree that it’ll make them want to eat less.
Stink Yourself Slim is available online for £29.99 (~$49 USD).
