2019 International Jugglers’ Association Championships Winning Performance
This is a worthwhile video from the International Jugglers’ Association (IJA) 2019 championships of juggler Zak McAllister’s winning individual performance, with a routine choreographed to ‘Love Like You’ from Steven Universe. He also took home the gold in the team competition with partner Delaney, which I included below as well because I’m a giver. “Ahem.” Honey, please. “Say it.” Fine, except when it comes to the covers at night, then I’m a relentless taker.
Dad Brilliantly Outsmarts Daughter To Win $5 Challenge
This is a short video of a girl challenging her dad to remove a $5 bill from beneath a bottle of hand sanitizer without moving the bottle. His method — genius. I wish I could say I’d be just as clever when faced with the same challenge, but knowing me I’d probably– “Drink all that hand sanitizer.” Was that the trick? *squirting last bit in mouth* Did I win?!
Friends Forever: Turtle High-Fives An Alligator
This is a super short video of a turtle high-fiving an alligator. Honestly, the gator doesn’t seem too involved in the gesture, its hand just appears to have been in the right place at the right time. I’m also not sure if this technically qualifies as a high-five considering its not even above water or their shoulder blades. This may in fact be a very-low-five. Alligators and most turtles do have five fingers on their front feet though, so I think we can all agree it was definitely SOME sort of five. “You’ve really given this a lot of thought.” My brain is garbage and I like to treat it as such.

Thanks to SH, who agrees all the animals should rise up against us and end humanity’s reign of terror on earth.
Thor And Mjölnir Rear Windshield Wiper Mod
This is a short video of somebody who modded the rear windshield and wiper of their Ford Fiesta with Thor and his hammer Mjölnir. Not the worst design, but Thor does create a blindspot in the rear window and he IS continuously beating himself in the head with his hammer. That is not how you put a stop to Loki. As a matter of fact, I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised to learn Loki is actually making him do that, like when two brothers get in a fight and the stronger one makes the other punch himself in the head and is all, “Awww, stop punching yourself.” Obviously, that was one of my signature moves. Also, a sharp knee directly into the center of the back when we had to share a bed.
The Office Possum, A Poseable Fake Possum For Startling Coworkers
This is the $23 Office Possum available from Archie McPhee. It’s a stuffed 15-inch latex possum with bendable paws and tail for hanging around the office to startle coworkers. Now I don’t know who needs to hear this, but it is not for butts. OR IS IT? Seriously it’s not. Want to get a real rise out your coworkers? Just bring some real possums and raccoons to the office in cat carriers and set them loose. That’s what I did. “But don’t you work from home?” Technically from a car in the driveway now.

Thermochromatic Car Paint Pigment Turns Black To Clear In Heat
This is a video of Fonzie from DipYourCar painting a car with a thermochromatic car pigment that turns from black to clear to reveal the color below when it gets hot (previously: painting a glow-in-the-dark car). Pretty cool, especially watching the color change in slow motion. I’m tempted to get this done to my car but I’m not sure if the pigment will adhere to rust and stickers. “Is that thing even street legal?” Nope, which is exactly why– “You only drive it through yards and on the sidewalk.” *smiling proudly* I have nothing more to teach you.
Keep going for the video, but skip to 5:15 if you just want to see the color changing.
