The mysterious British street artist Banksy got his start making graffiti in Bristol, UK in the early 1990s. The kids at Bridge Farm Primary School in Bristol decided to honor their native son by naming one of their new buildings in his honor.
Sometime last night, Banksy sneaked onto campus and painted a mural on the building. It shows a stick figure image of a child, a house, and a flower. The child is playing with a hoop, but the hoop is a burning tire!
That's an appropriate choice for the rebellious Banksy. He left a note for the children explaining himself. Colossal quotes him:
Dear Bridge Farm School, thanks for your letter and naming a house after me. Please have a picture, and if you don’t like it, feel free to add stuff. I’m sure the teachers won’t mind. Remember, it’s always easier to get forgiveness than permission. Much love, Banksy.
US border agents near Nogales, AZ were busy this past weekend. In five busts, they confiscated a buffet of hard drugs inbound from Mexico. The haul is valued at a combined $928,000. The best part of the whole thing was this pair of meth burritos.
Have you resigned yourself to the fact that you’re the worst dancer in the world? So many people say that, but they don’t know what they’re talking about, because the worst dancer is really me. They say you should dance like no one is watching, but sure as shootin’, you can feel their judgmental eyes upon you. This is the latest from John McNamee at Pie Comic.
Chopping onions often brings a tear to the eye and a knife wound to the fingers, leaving us feeling like there's got to be a better way.
People make products they peddle on TV, but those don't properly chop onions either. What we need is a better way to turn that bulb shaped vegetable into a bunch of tiny rectangular pieces without shedding a tear.
Well, here comes the harshly named YouTube channel You Suck At Cooking to show us not one, not two but seven new, and totally ingenious, ways to chop an onion.
You can dice it, electrify it or simply throw it against the wall! They're all guaranteed to work, but don't hold me to it...
