Sheep Gives Birth to Human-Faced Lamb: Just in Time for Rockman 10

Lambert Varias — Fri, 15 Jan 2010 13:22:25 +0000

I now suspect that a real-life Dr. Wily exists, and that he resides in Turkey: veterinarian Erhan Elibol performed a cesarean operation on a pregnant sheep. The lamb was stillborn, but perhaps it was all for the best, because the lamb had a human-like face. Vets think that the lamb’s mother’s vitamin-A rich food may have caused the mutation.

Warning! Do not scroll down if you have a weak stomach.

You have been warned…

I’m serious. It’s pretty nasty…

Ok, last warning before your retinas will be indelibly burned with this image…

No turning back now…

If the lamb was alive it would have grown up to become a terrible level boss, stoppable only by a man who is mega. Or rock, depending on where you live. Seriously though, the poor lamb would have been killed by horrified or disgusted neighbors anyway – which, according to the Daily Telegraph, is exactly what happened to a baby goat in Zimbabwe that was born with the exact same abnormality. Or perhaps it would have been carted away to a lab and subjected to all sorts of tests. Go straight to heaven, Sheep Man Lamb Kid. We hardly knew ewe. Sorry.

Then again, this may be a hoax. Photoshop wizards, check out the original picture at the Daily Telegraph and see if it’s legit or not.

Dead Mouse Mouse: Worst Mouse Mod Ever

Technabob — Fri, 26 Jun 2009 00:14:28 +0000

Ever since 2007′s creepy CompuBeaver casemod, there hasn’t been too much news in the budding field of computer taxidermy. I suppose that had to change sooner or later.

This disturbing creation is a compact computer mouse that’s been stuffed into the carcass of an actual dead mouse. Now I’m not a big fan of live mice in general, but this just seems too cruel and unusual to me. If you have a weak stomach, do not scroll down.

I told you so. Don’t blame me if you just lost your lunch.

Instructables has a horribly gory tutorial on making your own dead mouse mouse. I do not recommend that you try this under any circumstance. But if you do insist on making one, please do not start with a live mouse, and never let your cat see it.

St. Thomas Creations Presents: a Video of a Toilet Flushing Down All Kinds of Crap. Except for Real Crap.

Lambert Varias — Wed, 11 Mar 2009 11:30:40 +0000

St. Thomas Creations is promoting their Quattro Flushing Technology-equipped toilets. It’s for people who unload soft bombs the size of golf balls. Or hotdogs. Or large gummi bears. Or plastic alphabets.

This Toilet Is Awesome – Watch more

After careful analysis of the powerful toilet in the video, I deduced that it’s named the Palermo, which you can buy at your local dealer for about $250 – $445 USD. You can check out St. Thomas Creations’ site to help find a store that carries their products.

As the video went on and on, getting more absurd by the second, I was afraid that the disembodied hand would dump a Human Baby (6.2 lbs). Or Black Tar (5 kilos).

Robot Thrill Ride Seems Like a Bad Idea

Some sick individual strapped their buddy to a seat at the end of a FANUC industrial robot’s arm and then ran him through the spin cycle.

They captured all of the fun and festivities in this video clip:

I wouldn’t want to be the one sitting in that chair. I’m feeling a bit nauseous just looking at it.
