Scratch or Dent vs. Icing Bros
Please do not tell me that I am late on this as I am aware that icing bros has made it into major media and has many wondering if it is guerilla marketing or a viral ploy by Smirnoff. I am going to be honest, and with no better a word to describe it, say that it is awesome. For those not in the know, when presented with a Smirnoff Ice, you must take a knee and chug. The official rules taken from brosicingbros:
Now, you are probably are wondering what is up with Scratch or Dent. It is a game that was played by my friends and I, similar to Icing Bros, but a little more low-key. The premise of Scratch or Dent is that once you open a can or bottle of beer you must either put a scratch in the label of the bottle or a dent in the can. Once you take your first sip of beer, if you do not have one of the aforementioned scratches of dents, a fellow drinker may call you out for not having the required defacement and you must drink the remainder of your beer. As I type this, it is apparent that it is not on the same level as Icing, but has left me with the odd ritual of scratching or denting my beers to this day. Icing Bros has many more creative applications and if you follow the rules, the icing can occur in public, non-drinking situations, which you can learn more about through some basic Intertron research:

A Sandwich A Day
Found a great, consistent posting regarding sandwiches in New York. The above happens to be The Roast Beef Luger from Brooklyn Fare, which happens to be right around the corner from me. From the post:
If you can't score a reservation at Peter Luger's but need a cheap, quick fix, head over to the deli section of Brooklyn Fare, Boerum Hill's friendly go-to market. Of the 20 or so sandwiches on the chalkboard menu, the Roast Beef Luger ($5.99 on a roll, $6.99 on the hero) was our favorite. They cut slices off their big slab of roast beef, add a slice of cheddar, bacon, and—this is where the Luger part comes in—smother it with Peter Luger's signature steak sauce. Smother, as in, the paper wrapping it is soaked after a half-hour subway ride back to SE headquarters. It's best to devour this 'wich before soggification sets in.

Steampunk
Ever heard of it? If so, good for you. Rather than re-word wiki, here you go:
Steampunk is a sub-genre of science fiction and speculative fiction, frequently featuring elements of fantasy, that came into prominence in the 1980s and early 1990s. The term denotes works set in an era or world where steam power is still widely used — usually the 19th century, and often Victorian era England — but with prominent elements of either science fiction or fantasy, such as fictional technological inventions like those found in the works of H. G. Wells and Jules Verne, or real technological developments like the computer occurring at an earlier date. Other examples of steampunk contain alternate history-style presentations of "the path not taken" of such technology as dirigibles, analog computers, or digital mechanical computers (such as Charles Babbage's Analytical engine); these frequently are presented in an idealized light, or with a presumption of functionality.
Steampunk is often associated with cyberpunk and shares a similar fanbase and theme of rebellion, but developed as a separate movement (though both have considerable influence on each other). Apart from time period and level of technological development, the main difference between cyberpunk and steampunk is that steampunk settings usually tend to be less obviously dystopian than cyberpunk, or lack dystopian elements entirely.
Various modern utilitarian objects have been modded by individual artisans into a pseudo-Victorian mechanical "steampunk" style, and a number of visual and musical artists have been described as steampunk.

We are Holograms
DRIVING through the countryside south of Hanover, it would be easy to miss the GEO600 experiment. From the outside, it doesn't look much: in the corner of a field stands an assortment of boxy temporary buildings, from which two long trenches emerge, at a right angle to each other, covered with corrugated iron. Underneath the metal sheets, however, lies a detector that stretches for 600 metres.
For the past seven years, this German set-up has been looking for gravitational waves - ripples in space-time thrown off by super-dense astronomical objects such as neutron stars and black holes. GEO600 has not detected any gravitational waves so far, but it might inadvertently have made the most important discovery in physics for half a century.
The holograms you find on credit cards and banknotes are etched on two-dimensional plastic films. When light bounces off them, it recreates the appearance of a 3D image. In the 1990s physicists Leonard Susskind and Nobel prizewinner Gerard 't Hooft suggested that the same principle might apply to the universe as a whole. Our everyday experience might itself be a holographic projection of physical processes that take place on a distant, 2D surface.
There is a ton of science in this article, but we may be holograms of the real thing somewhere else.

Chatroulette
If you recall, I did a post about Omegle a while back, which was a site that automatically connected you to a random person on the internet and you two could chat via text. Now there is a new site, called Chatroulette, that will connect you to a stranger, difference being that a webcam is involved. You would have to assume that there going to be some weird ish going on and I have yet to do more than click once, see a person and click off, but here is an example of what it looks like:
Are you going to give it a try?
