Welcome to the wild world of wonky trademarks , where the 'Just Do It' spirit gets a little lost in translation and designer logos take a detour into the absurd. Picture this: you're strolling down the market aisles when you spot something familiar yet unmistakably odd. It's a pair of 'Abibas' sneakers, complete with the iconic three stripes, but just a bit... off. Or maybe it's the 'Specialman' action figure, fighting for justice and the best bargain bin deal. These brand doppelgängers are the…

It's normal to be weird

We just bought a new car , and I'm still riding that new car high. Everything about it is fresh and exciting. There's even still a faint trace of that new car smell, and I'm constantly looking for excuses to take it out for a spin ("Oh look, the milk carton is almost halfway empty—better go to the store to get another one"). Our old car, in contrast, had reached the "I'm annoyed with everything about this piece of junk " phase. Don't get me wrong—there was absolutely nothing wrong with the car,…

Memes to Celebrate Our Beautifully Distracted Minds

I would have made a wonderful scientist if I could only do math, understand complex ideas, concentrate for several hours and, in general, just be smarter. This might sound like a joke but I really believe that. I feel like I have a real passion for science, but I lack the actual tools a person needs to be a scientist. It's all nice and well to retain your natural curiosity into your adulthood, which is absolutely one of the requirements for being a scientist, but it's nothing if you cant sit do…

We all know sushi is an art form, but Takayo Kiyota takes it to a whole new level. She creates some of the most intricate and detailed sushi designs we’ve ever seen. Granted, some of these creations aren’t exactly bite-sized; in fact, some are quite large. However, they are still crafted using traditional sushi-making techniques. She uses nori (seaweed), rice, and a variety of toppings, which she meticulously arranges before rolling everything together. The real magic happens when she cuts into…

Now, why didn't we think of that?

When I think back to my early days of Dungeons & Dragons, one of my strongest memories is sitting in our makeshift game room, while my brother—the Dungeon Master—worked quietly on our next adventure. The table would be littered with graph paper, dice, and rulebooks, but my focus would inevitably drift toward the stunning art of Jeff Easley . His illustrations seemed to come alive as I flipped through the pages of D&D books, transporting me to otherworldly landscapes filled with powerful wizards…

Cosplay is an art form. Sure, anyone can throw on a costume of their favorite character from pop culture, But some people take the whole thing to the next level . These people spend a lot of time and a lot of money to get their costumes just right. But it's not just about being as close to the original as possible. Sometimes it's all about the idea and execution. I mean, Pulling off a cosplay of Selina Kyle lookin in the mirror and seeing Catwoman is a stroke of genius. But what I find really f…

My mom was a really good cook. She would make us mouth-watering meals on a daily basis, and I was always excited when she called us to come and eat. But since I was growing up during the 80s, every now and then she would see a strange new recipe in the paper or in some weird cookbook and decide to make us things like "Chicken wings in cola" or "Tuna and olive pasta." We would collectively smile and eat quietly, trying not to hurt her feelings, but she could tell. For some reason, the 70s and 80…

A Notice: We have noticed that some of the readers noted that in the previous " Sign fails " listicle, there were notably signs that were not, in fact, "Fails." This has been noted, and a notice has been sent to the creators of the last listicle, and they have received their final notice. Thank you for noticing this notice! A Note about the Previous Notice: Now that we have read the previous notice, we noticed that the words "Notice" and "Noted" have appeared noticeably too many times , and we…

I’ve lost count of the number of nature documentaries I’ve seen in my life, and somehow, they’re always amazing. Every time I sit down to learn something new about the animals that inhabit this planet, I’m blown away by the beauty, ingenuity, and pure weirdness of nature. For instance, did you know there are snakes that live underwater and hunt small fish? Or that there’s a species of worm covered in golden hair? And I mean proper golden hair—not yellow. Gold. In this listicle, lovingly curated…

There was a moment in recent history when 3D printers were touted as the next big thing . Everyone thought they could just buy a printer and start making whatever they needed at home, instead of purchasing it. Broke your favorite mug? Just print an identical one. Want to start cycling to work? Just 3D print a bicycle! Your 3D printer broke? Ask your friend to print you a new one! The possibilities seemed endless , but much like cryptocurrency and the metaverse, nothing much came of it for most…

How much coffee is too much coffee? This question has been bothering me ever since I bought my new coffee machine, and I have been, let's say, misusing it. Well, I’ve asked Google several times, "How much coffee is too much coffee?" and as it turns out—it’s a lot! Like, really a lot. You’d probably die from drinking too many fluids before you'd die from the caffeine. To give you another indication of my obsession with coffee: I once worked at a coffee shop, and during my shifts, I would munch o…
