A Website Dedicated To Secret Menus At Fast Food Restaurants

by Zeon Santos

Some fast food chains have always had secret menus, while others have recently come around to the idea thanks to In-N-Out’s success with their secret menu, which makes customers feel like they've really mastered the art of eating out.

You used to have to search around online for posts detailing the contents of these secret menus, but now there’s a website dedicated to these deluxe dishes, and they're doing their best to gather every secret menu in one place- Hack The Menu.

They've collected 15 menus so far, for places ranging from Jamba Juice to Sonic, and they've even put together a list of healthy secret menu options, in case you're looking for some guilt free drive thru.

Legally Required Menu

by Miss Cellania

The liquor laws in Albany, Indiana, state that an establishment that sells liquor by the drink must also serve food. The “minimum food service” is described as “hot soups, hot sandwiches, coffee, milk, and soft drinks.” Now, any bar should have coffee, milk, and soft drinks because they are mixers. But the Bank Street Brewhouse doesn’t really want to be a restaurant, and doesn’t really want to serve food. But in keeping with the letter of the law, they now offer this menu.



If it's hard to read, you can see a slightly larger version at imgur. Of course, this will backfire on them, as soon as someone has a few too many drinks and decides that they really, really want a plain microwave hotdog and a can of random soup.

Why wouldn’t a bar want to serve hot food? For one thing, it takes up room and staff time. Another plausible explanation comes from redditor j0llyllama, who points out that food delivery services are on the opposite page of the menu. Often bars have deals with nearby restaurants to provide food to their patrons without making them leave the bar. -via Uproxx

Revenge Is a Dish Best Served Slightly Chilled

by John Farrier

Doghouse Diaries has some brutal ideas for how to inflict your wrath on your most deserving enemies. This is part 3 of an ongoingseries, so the artist clearly thinks a lot about revenge.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

It's already taking effect. My inner thoughts are now suddenly in the voice of Gilbert Gottfried. And I routinely drive joyfully toward what appear to be open parking spaces in crowded lots, only to suffer the acutely painful presence of a microcar or a motorcycle.

Futurama may be over, but its characters have at least one more TV story to tell. In the first image from the Futurama/Simpsons crossover episode, we see Bender as a time-traveling Terminator, sent back to kill Bart before the boy can cause a horrible catastrophe.

Archer fish are remarkable in that they can hit prey from meters away with pinpoint accuracy.

by George Dvorsky

Archer fish are remarkable in that they can hit prey from meters away with pinpoint accuracy. New research shows that they're able to control the range of their deadly water pistols by compressing their gill covers and forcing water through a "gun barrel" made by their tongue and the roof of their mouth.

Weird Al, Elvis Costello, Aerosmith and More to Get Simpsons Action Figures

Following on the heels of having made REM, Kid Rock, Britney Spears and The Who, NECA's celebrity Simpsons line is quietly becoming the best and most diverse source of music action figures since the heyday of McFarlane. In addition to nerd icons Yankovic and Costello, the new series will include Tom Jones - who ought to liven up many a Mars Attacks! display - and the less-musical Buzz Aldrin. I think my dream celebrity Simpsons figure would be Alan Moore. Can't imagine it would happen, but just take a moment to conceive of the display possibilities.

Great Job, Internet!: Read This: Esquire explores the origins of all the running jokes on The League

by William Hughes

The League, FXX’s sports-comedy-that’s-not-really-about-sports, returned to TV recently for a sixth season of fantasy football and hideously inventive trash talk. The show has a beautiful knack for capturing the shared idiotic patois that can develop between long-time friends, and a big part of that is the growing list of running jokes and inside references built up over the years by the writers and actors who craft the show’s largely improvised dialogue.

That same density can also be daunting to new viewers, though they might benefit from this piece over at Esquire where the show’s cast and writers run through the in-show and real-life inspiration for many of the program’s foul and bizarre running gagsincluding the family-tormenting origins of the menacing figure known only as the Bobbum Man.

A lot of these, unsurprisingly, come from The League’s filthy, murderous, beautiful secret weapon: Jason Mantzoukas ...

Great Job, Internet!: Mario and the Minecraft guy battle with swords and shells in a new video

by William Hughes

When you think about it, Mario and the guy from Minecraft (usually referred to as Steve) have a lot in common. They break blocks, eat mushrooms, and have complicated relationships with ghosts. And, since it’s one of the embedded rules of pop culture that any two similar entities must someday do battle, visual effects artist Andrew McMurry has done just that, creating a live-action video of the two fighting it out for possession of a coveted 1-Up mushroomand, perhaps, for love.

There are a lot of videos of this ilk online, imagining video game characters interacting in real life, and most of them tend toward the amateurish. But, with the quality of its effects and its attention to detail as to how these two characters operateSteve deflects fireballs with his sword, just like he does in Minecraft, and Mario shrinks down in a clever way when damaged ...

Newswire: Come along and that’s it to Coolio’s song for Pornhub

I am at work so I can't watch this, but as soon as I get home.

Come on y’all, let’s take a ride; don’t you say shit, just get inside. It’s time to take your ass on another kind of trip—to a porn star car wash, where it will be repeatedly doused with suds while Coolio raps about jerking off. Hip-hop’s foremost tour guide has just released “Take It To The Hub,” a Pornhub-commissioned promo video that invites listeners along on a fantastic voyage to the masturbation depot, where they will be fluffed into self-stimulation by a 50-year-old Coolio, rasping in their ear.

“I saw a pussy and a titty and an ass cheek, it kept a smile on my face since last week,” raps the man who once charted his treacherous journey through the valley of the shadow of death, now enjoying a far more scenic route. Coolio takes a look at his life and realizes there’s nothing ...

Newswire: Here’s the first look at that Simpsons/Futurama crossover

by Sean O'Neal

In a season that is positively heady with the smell of cheap cartoon crossovers, The Simpsons will not only have the encounter with Family Guy so eagerly anticipated by people who enjoy bright colors moving around, it will also have a slightly more tonally appropriate meeting with Futurama. Now Entertainment Weekly has supplied both the first look at and first details from that November 9 episode, “Simpsorama,” which will bring the characters of the canceled (again) series into Springfield and The Simpsons’ timeline. “We’re always looking for things that are compatible with us, and I thought, ‘Well, what’s more compatible?’” Simpsons showrunner Al Jean said he asked himself, this time at least.

The episode will reportedly involve a “Simpsonized” tweak of the Futurama opening credits, plenty of Futurama inside jokes and Easter eggs (including a couple that Jean just straight-up spoils for you), and they even threw in ...

New Batman Roller Coaster Is Clearly The Joker's Diabolical Vomit Trap

I'm dizzy watching this. I want to go.

Six Flags theme parks have had plenty of Batman coasters, but the new one opening in San Antonio, Texas, in summer of 2015 claims to be "4D." More importantly, as this promotional video for the ride clearly indicates, this thing is obviously one of the Joker's nefarious plans, designed to induce mass vomiting.

UFC Hall of Famer Randy Couture cast on Season 19 of 'Dancing with the Stars'

by Matt Erickson

randy-couture-ufc-143

Randy Couture is the next MMA legend who will go “Dancing with the Stars.”

The 51-year-old Couture, a UFC Hall of Famer and one of just two fighters to win titles in two divisions for the promotion, will appear on the upcoming 19th season of the ABC competition series. He is paired with Russian pro dancer Karina Smirnoff.

Couture’s inclusion in the cast was announced on Thursday’s episode of “Good Morning America.”

Couture told the show’s hosts that dancing in the ballroom likely will be harder on him than fighting was.

“I think the dance floor is definitely going to be tougher,” Couture said. “I’ve been enjoying the training, and I’ve discovered some muscles I didn’t know I had.”

His partner, Smirnoff, who in Season 13 guided J.R. Martinez to the coveted “Mirror Ball Trophy” with a title, said: “He is (tough), but he’s working very hard.”

Couture is the second MMA fighter to be cast on the long-running show, which airs Monday nights on ABC starting Sept. 15. In Season 9, in Fall 2009, then-active UFC fighter Chuck Lidell was on the show. He and pro partner Anna Trebunskaya were the fifth pair eliminated that season.

In boxing, Evander Holyfield was cast on the show’s first season and finished fifth out of six competitors. Muhammad Ali’s daughter Laila was on Season 4 and reached the finals with Maksim Chmerkovskiy, finishing third. Floyd Mayweather Jr. was cast on Season 5 and was eliminated fifth. Like Couture for the upcoming season, he was partnered with Smirnoff. Sugar Ray Leonard was cast on Season 12 of the show; he and Trebunskaya, Liddell’s pro partner, were eliminated third. Victor Ortiz was cast on Season 16 and was eliminated fourth.

Couture is no stranger to the small screen. Along with an ever-growing filmography that includes all three “Expendables” movies, the three-time college wrestling All-American was a coach on Spike TV’s lone season of “Fight Master,” Bellator MMA’s reality competition series, and currently can be seen in Spike TV’s “Gym Rescue” along with Frank Shamrock.

Couture retired from MMA following a knockout loss to Lyoto Machida at UFC 129 in Toronto. That snapped a three-fight winning streak for the legend, who is the oldest fighter to win a UFC title when he beat Tim Sylvia at UFC 68 in 2007. He went on to become the oldest to win a UFC fight when he beat Brandon Vera at UFC 105.

In recent years, Couture has had a falling out with the UFC, in large part due to Couture’s decision to work with Bellator and Spike TV, leaving in a fashion that UFC President Dana White took umbrage with after he said he had worked to get Couture a gig with UFC broadcast partner FOX Sports.

But his status in MMA history remains relatively intact as both a light heavyweight and heavyweight champion in the UFC, and thanks in part to a legendary trilogy series with Liddell.

How will he fare on “Dancing with the Stars”? Time will tell, of course. But athletes are no strangers to the show’s finals – and its title. In the spring, Olympic gold medalist Meryl Davis won the crown, and past athlete winners have included NFL receivers Donald Driver and Hines Ward, NFL Hall of Fame running back Emmitt Smith, Olympic medalists Shawn Johnson, Kristi Yamaguchi and Apolo Anton Ono and Indy car driver Helio Castroneves. And many other professional athletes have reached the finals, including the NFL’s Jacoby Jones, Warran Sapp, Jason Taylor and Jerry Rice.

“Dancing with the Stars” is hosted by Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews and this fall will feature a fourth full-time judge after employing three in the past. Two-time professional show winner Julianne Hough, brother of fellow pro regular Derek, will join longstanding judges Len Goodman, Bruno Tonioli and Carrie Ann Inaba.

The full list of Season 19 cast members includes:

  • Jonathan Bennett (actor) & Allison Holker
  • Tommy Chong (actor, comedian) & Peta Murgatroyd
  • Randy Couture (MMA fighter, actor) and Karina Smirnoff
  • Betsey Johnson (fashion designer) & Tony Dovolani
  • Lolo Jones (Olympic track and bobsled athlete) & Keo Motsepe
  • Bethany Mota (YouTube star) and Derek Hough
  • Janel Parrish (actress) and Val Chmerkovskiy
  • Alfonso Ribeiro (actor) & Witney Carson
  • Sadie Robertson (reality TV star) & Mark Ballas
  • Antonio Sabato Jr. (actor, model) and Cheryl Burke
  • Travis Smiley (talk show host) and Sharna Burgess
  • Lea Thompson (actress) & Artem Chigvintsev
  • Michael Waltrip (NASCAR driver) & Emma Slater
