Twenty-five year old, Luke Pittard, won the won 1.8 Million British Pounds ($3.3MM) in the lottery 2 years ago. After living the good life, Luke missed his work mates. He decided to return to the Pontprennau, Cardiff, McDonald’s where he was employed prior to his lottery win.
Said Prittard:
To be honest, there’s only so […]

I am captivated and horrified by aircraft in the first place, so this video of Lufthansa Flight LH44 from Munich landing in Hamburg—full, I’m told, of technology folk going to the big CeBIT gadget convention—is the sort of thing that will be running on a loop in my mind as I take a flight this […]

This is odd, but perhaps a smart tie-in: they’re making a Deadliest Catch videogame. I want to be the salty but fair guy!

From the people who brought you the Dangerous Catch knock-off Ice Road Truckers comes “Ax Men,” a new reality show about loggers premiering March 9th. Watch a preview video on History.com. As far as I can tell, I didn’t see any owls crushed under boot heel or zombies beheaded by a spinning gravity-gun sawblade.
One thing […]

My apologies for the awkward formatting on this post, but I couldn’t bear to shear away or compress a single pixel of one man’s glorious office conquest.

There is no beer here.

Seriously, do not mess around with me. Where is the beer?

Alert! Reader Malcolm O. has a problem and needs us to help:
My workplace has decided to have a night out on Saturday. Usually, it’s a rowdy 150 people or so in a bar (or bars) on the night after payday. This time however, they’ve decided to go upmarket, and take advantage of the hospitality of […]

It may be hard to ascertain from this picture alone why this crane operator is swinging two iron wrecking balls between his knees, but it’s not just because he’s methodically removing the very bricks that support his multi-ton digger. It’s also where those bricks happen to be. (All will be made clear if you click […]

A two-engine commuter plane made a “wheels up” landing in New Zealand this morning after circling for half an hour attempting to get the landing gear to work.
“I’m absolutely amazed at the quality of the landing,” he said.
“Watching from the side of the runway, he was right down the centre, he didn’t deviate. It was […]

Things have been slow around here, I know. I’m actually ramping up on a couple of non-Dethroner-related projects that I hope to announce in the next few weeks, which has caused me to slack off here. I don’t know when and how Dethroner will shape up in the near future, but I haven’t thrown in […]

I can’t watch these corporate grin-and-bear-it videos without literally cringing with the thoughts of all the people who were harmed in the making: the employees roped into forming the choir, the horribly white woman and her band “breaking it down,” or the thousand of employees who had to watch this video and continue to work […]

You know we love our Deadliest Catch around here, so you can imagine my delight at this post on Fecal Face from Corey Arnold, who apparently was on the show, but is more notable for being a great photographer. He’s got his Alaska story online, how he made his way into the lucrative King Crab […]
