Zoomdoggle: More fun than work!

Shea Small guzzles a 24-ounce bottle of breakfast syrup in 59.7 seconds, a new world record. Small beat the previous record by over 90 seconds.

Drinking Tropical Original Recipe Syrup, Small set the record in front of a cheering crowd at a World Record Appreciation Society event in San Diego, California. The event, which took place at the House of Blues on February 20, 2009, was part of a 91X Morning Show broadcast. Dan Rollman and TJ Ervin timed and witnessed the feat.

Once again, the previous record set by Jake Bronstein.

If your idea of fun dances hand-in-hand with frustration and torment, you’re in for a treat. The Discovery Channel has just put up 4 architectural-themed puzzles. I figure I’m 10 minutes in, but only halfway through Troy’s Odeion Theater. Still, that’s 10 minutes I didn’t think about the taxes I haven’t done yet. Nothing wrong with that.

Word on the street is, this is actually what Lego’s business cards look like. They even do their best to match ‘em to the people they’re for (gender, hair, glasses). How fun is that?

Honorable mention goes to newly-minted friend of the doggle Emerson Taymor’s “I Am Emerson Taymor” cards:

And anything made of rubber.

It’s a race against the clock and you’re prairie dog’in from the start. Type play to start the game and rest assured it is winnable. Click the pic to get the game (since that’s the way we like it).

Readers, you have helped me out before, and now I have another challenge for you.  I found this ad on the San Francisco Craigslist, posted by a guy who wants to form a militia comprised of “a small elite group of men (and a few women)” to drive out the Mexican drug cartel that he says controls large swaths of Livermore, CA.  According to this modern day minuteman, “if Livermore had a militia with a mere 500 members the drug cartels would be drive out and never allowed to take root there.”  Do you see where I’m going with this?

DO YOU PERCEIVE THE DIRECTION IN WHICH MY BRAIN FINGER IS GESTURING???

Yes:  Everyone who reads this must respond to this man and volunteer their services for his vaguely racist and definitely sexist paramilitary group by doing the following:

1. Go here to read the full ad.

2. Email him an application to become a member of his militia.  Maybe talk about your demolition skills or why you hate the Mexicans.  If you are Mexican, try to convince him you are not a spy.

3. Email screenshots of your emails and any responses from him to repletewithadrian@gmail.com—I will put the best and funniest ones on this website.

4. Try not to get murdered?

GO GO GO GO (I just sent in my application) GO GO GO GO

Yup, frost-flavored plaque-killing for just just $3.99. Interesting side note, doing a google image search for the words “flossing” only brings up pictures of the ladies. Am I the only gent worried about oral hygiene? And while we’re at it, how many people actually wash their calves in the shower. With soap. I’ve got this theory that people think if they can’t reach it easily, it doesn’t get dirty…

No, seriously. Of course he doesn’t say anything, but still. If the cat figures out how to text NEED FUN, it will officially be my favorite cat ever.

Just 10 days and $99 is all it takes to have a Mini-Me built using one of 20 standard bodies and a face hand-crafted to look like whatever photo you send in. Give someone themselves for their birthday. How fun is that? Even better, give them yourself for their birthday. It takes cajones, but you know you want to.

I’m not entirely sure how I feel about this one, but as 5 people sent it to me in the last 24 hours, what the hell. Ever wanted to be a Texas Sheriff? Ready for the next best thing? BlueServo is a set of 15 cameras, each with their own mission. Sign up, log on, and if you see something, say something. They call ‘em “virtual stakeouts.” Fun… right?

Ford is giving away 100 cars, all expenses paid (well, some expenses paid) for six months. And not just any car, the Ford Fiesta, one of Motor Trend’s Gotta Have Cars for 2010. And not just to drive, but to carry out “secret missions” in. You know how much I like secrets. So what do you have to do get one? Simply make a video explaining who you are and what makes you deserving.

As for my attempt, I was going to walk across the bridge—in the street, with the cars—near my house, as a way of showing how much I hate walking on sidewalks. Amazingly, I didn’t even get off my own block before the first altercation. Yay Brooklyn. Anyway, if you wanted to rate it up, show a friend, or even just push play and walk away, I’d be that much closer to free wheels. How fun is that?
