I’ve just stumbled upon these videos and they are brilliant. They featured a young lad called “Little Gordon”, a homage to our favourite blonde-haired, shouty, sweary, Michelin-starred celebrity chef, Gordon Ramsay (or maybe “Big Gordon” now). They mini-me shares a lot of his traits, including his fondness for four-letter words, but that just adds to his charm. Check them out below:
Take a look at this video of an escalator on Japan’s underground system. It’s malfunctioned and has started going backwards, causing people to form a pile at the bottom of the stairway.
Apparently this has been doing the rounds for a while, but I’ve only just seen this. Looks like a hoax or a viral marketing campaign, but there are already variants popping up on the web.
There are a number of theories as to how this is done - pre-treated kernels, under table heating element, hidden microwave parts. I think the latter is most likely. Apparently the kernels need to heat to 450 degrees Fahrenheit before the moisture inside turns to steam and makes them explode, and if your Nokia did that your fingers would like like a nasty barbequing accident after a five minute call! Very clever though. What next? A laptop that cooks pizzas? An iPod with spitroast cover flow?
