BMO: no biting!

This is for my friend Nick's cat named BMO (Beemo), whom essentially sinks his teeth into any being that has a pulse. There are many reasons why cats bite. Cats will bite when they're afraid, angry, annoyed, or stressed. Not BMO, he tends to bite when feeling playful or overstimulated.


BMO from the animated television series Adventure Time:

Police impounded vehicle turns out to be a steal

A redditor posted:

"bought a car from the police impound, decided to install a cold air intake when suddenly..."


Reminds me of the fastest police car in America, which was ironically seized from a drug dealer.
According to news observer: 

A segment from Top Gear America on police vehicles calls the department's 505-horsepower 2009 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 "the fastest police car in America." link

Deli platter = delicious?

Ah, nothing beats seeing a platter of meat when arriving at an alcohol-fueled bachelor party.


This here is what I purchased from my local Walmart and I assure you that the circle of meat was juicer than a rare T-bone steak. However, that story strayed far from the main highlight of my day today. I met a man who's bearded neck represents that of a heavy Amish gentleman. A lady-killer who's appearance alone could tame an exotic beast.

I present to you the very man who killed, skinned, and sliced the meat for my Deli Platter:

Countdown to black mesa

Black Mesa has been in development for eight years and until recently, has finally been given a release date for September 14th. It is a complete re-creation of the critically acclaimed game Half-Life and will even use the Source engine. Best of all, this mod will be distributed as a free download when released.

Let the countdown begin.

Dragon edition of a Lamborghini Aventador LP760-4

Fans of medieval lore will appreciate this bad ass 700-horsepower custom Lamborghini that was exhibited at the Chelsea Auto Legends show. Refined Marques and Oakley design made this beast of custom carbon exterior and an interior stitched with Chinese style dragons.

Let's just hope this dragon doesn't get slayed by an armored knight.

Thanks theawesomer!

Real life angry bird


This is the best suited bird for a real life version of the popular iPhone game Angry Birds. It's known as a common grackle for those interested in launching this bird from a sling shot. However, don't come to me whenever PETA comes knocking on your front door.

Notice anything special about this image?

I myself was fooled into thinking this portrait was indeed a photograph. Instead, it is drawn with ballpoint pens by Samuel Silva.

Frog forced to assist in caterpillar's suicide

There's an old saying that goes: "You have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find your handsome prince." Unfortunately for this caterpillar, to find her prince she had to first subdue the circle of life.

DAYUM! This should be part of an advertisement for Five Guys Burgers and Fries

The founder and CEO of Five Guys doesn't support advertising of his national food chain. Instead he relies on word of mouth. What bigger way to spread the word than to let Daym Drops share his enthusiastic review on YouTube.

OH MY DAYUM!- REMIX!
