Video Of Chili's Classic 'Baby Back Ribs' Jingle Being Recorded

This is a video of the recording of Chili’s enjoy-having-it-stuck-in-your-head-all-day ‘Baby Back Ribs’ jingle.  Some more info while I demand my dogs treat me to Chili’s take-out for dinner tonight since it’s Father’s Day weekend. They’ll refuse, and I’ll be drunkenly burning Totino’s Pizza Rolls in the oven by 8PM:

Singer Alvin Chea of the a capella band Take 6, shared original footage of himself (“I want my baby back, baby back”), Louis Price of The Temptations (“barbecue sauce”), and Willie McCoy aka Wolf Johnson (bass) performing the tasty iconic jingle for Chili’s Baby Back Ribs. After the first take, a lively discussion took place about how to say “barbecue sauce”.

Surprisingly, apparently the creator of the jingle, advertising creative director Guy Bommarito, was actually worried the song would be considered his greatest achievement in life. Ha! Like a mere mortal could even dream of achieving anything greater without inventing the time machine or free energy. Get real, ‘Baby Back’ Bommarito!

Keep going for the jingle, and an interview with Guy.

Real Products That Exist: The Lime Bomber, For Finger-Free Mashing Lime Wedges Into Beer Bottles

Real Products That Exist: The Lime Bomber, For Finger-Free Mashing Lime Wedges Into Beer Bottles

Because nobody wants a complimentary case of coronavirus with their Corona, this is the Lime Bomber, a $20 product for mashing lime wedges into beer bottles without a mess or the use of your friend’s grubby fingers. I was skeptical at first, but the Amazon reviews don’t lie — apparently it’s a quality product. Per verified purchaser EMESKAY:

Unbelievable how great this contraption works. I want to drink more beer just so I can put limes in the bottle with my Lime Bomber.

Pfft, I want to drink more beer even without the added fun of getting to put limes in bottles. But what do I know? I’m just a man who’s already on beer number two this morning. “Try four, dear.” Hoho, looks like somebody spotted my empties in the shower!

Slow Motion Footage Of Apple Watch Ejecting Water From Speaker

Slow Motion Footage Of Apple Watch Ejecting Water From Speaker

This is a video of Gavin from The Slow Mo Guys (where’s Dan — what did you do to him?!) capturing some footage of an Apple Watch ejecting water from its speaker at approximately 196Hz when Water Lock is turned off. Me? I never remember to turn Water Lock on in the first place, which may explain why my Apple Watch doesn’t work anymore. “That’s a slap bracelet.” And that may explain it even better. Hold out your arm!

Thanks to Charlie H, who agrees this is the technological equivalent of turning your head sideways and banging on it after getting out of a pool.

Psssssssst, Up Here: Pet Snake Attacks Owner From Above

Psssssssst, Up Here: Pet Snake Attacks Owner From Above

This is a short video of a pet boa constrictor attacking its owner from above because what else are you gonna do when he’s always treating you like a coat? In his own words (the dude’s, not the snake’s):

I was letting my snake hang out on my coat rack right behind me while I was cleaning and on IG Live. I kept bobbing up and down taunting her and forgetting she was there then she tagged me on my shoulder really quick. No injury, just funny.

Wait — is that your bedroom? Who has a coat rack in their bedroom? Now I’m not sure what brand of cereal you got your interior design degree from, but I’d demand my proof-of-purchases back.

Hasbro Releasing Life-Size Interactive Deadpool Head

Hasbro Releasing Life-Size Interactive Deadpool Head

These are a couple commercials for Hasbro’s Marvel Legends Interactive Electronic Deadpool Head coming this September ($99 from Entertainment Earth). The head and eyes move as it speaks its over 600 Deadpool phrases, and responds to sounds, being picked up, and being turned upside-down. It also includes a downloadable smartphone app for more direct control. Obviously, if you don’t hack this thing to work with your Amazon Alexa, you’ve done it wrong. And, if you don’t hack this thing to work with MY Amazon Alexa, well *sharpening knife* you’ve just done it the wrongest.

Thanks to my buddy Closet Nerd, who has undoubtedly already shut up and handed over a fistful of money.

Going For It: Cat Tries To Eat Whole Mouthful Of Kibble At A Time

Going For It: Cat Tries To Eat Whole Mouthful Of Kibble At A Time

This is a video of a cat that apparently learned how to eat by watching claw machines and attempts to grab an entire mouthful of the brown and crunchy at a time. You know what they say though– “Cats are f***ing weird.” FACT. It’s one of the fundamental laws of the universe, like the sky is only blue because that’s the name we gave that particular shade of the visible spectrum. Food for thought. “That’s cat food.” *crunching* I eat what my mom gives me.
