This is a video of Rube Goldberg machinist Joseph of Joseph’s Machines building and testing a real life version of Wallace & Gromit’s breakfast machine from the 1993 movie The Wrong Trousers. Wrong Trousers? Not a problem for me, I haven’t worn anything but sweatpants and athletic shorts for years.

This is a vintage safety style video created by Youtuber Hoog highlighting ways you can protect yourself from the eventual armies of killer robotic dogs that will be prowling the streets. Granted, there wasn’t anything presented that I didn’t already know, but I don’t subscribe to Robot Apocalypse Digest just
Guaranteed to be this summer’s must-have snack table accessory, pickle fountains are party drink fountains filled with pickles and pickle juice.
