Asians shoot bananas out of their noses
They also stick them out there ears, wear them as hats, and fly away while being banana-propelled. At least that's what the internet tells me. The internet is always right, of course. ~~ For th…

Reshapable vases collapse and mold
At first glance, I saw these as possible tacky plastic vases that nobody would ever actually buy. People want fancy glass vases....or their kids' handmade clay vases, right? The fact that they're co…

Tea bag origami birds

Weird math calculations
Well not really weird, but interesting at a glance. Check out how these problems end up. Kinda artsy....which is rather un-mathematics-like. 1 x 8 + 1 = 9 12 x 8 + 2 = 98 123 x 8 + 3 = 987 1234 x 8…
