Yes.
It’s a record.
Pasta and Stout. Together at last.
The unholy creation of Mark Zable, these deep-fried Guinness-filled raviolis will debut at the Texas State Fair this September.
Along with the entire stomach contents of anyone mad enough to ingest them.

Told you so.
You’re looking at the most expensive road car (possibly) never built.
The DiMora Natalia, brainchild of US industrialist Alfred DiMora: 16 speed transmission, a top speed of 270mph, a 256MB flash memory mp3 horn and a paint job that changes from black to white and back depending on the ambient temperature.
Price tag? $2 million, or $2.8 for the turbo.
The monstrous bourge-mobile is slated for release in 2012 but may never be made, given the current global economic climate. And the overall WTF-edness of the concept.
Boy, will Dermot Desmond ever be pissed off.
Another Josh Ellingson illustration. Another hatstand dog video. And so it continues.

Yet another comic book-based movie, this time with a man in chaps rather than tights. Josh Brolin is the titular cowboy/bounty hunter Hex, with Megan Fox playing a hooker with (you won’t believe this) a heart of gold.
They’re up against John Malkovich as a Confederate General who wants to re-start the American Civil War. It went back for more than a few re-shoots to ‘expand’ on Fox’s character. That’s never a good thing.
Release Date (Ireland): This Friday, September 3.
OMFG, can you believe they were considering Yaphet Kotto for Picard and Wesley Snipes for Geordi? Jenny Agutter would have been sexy as Bev Crusher, though.
Homina-homina-homina.
Where’s my inhaler?
