This is a video of bubbles being blown and freezing in mid-air. You can actually see the ice crystals starting to form as the bubbles drift around. Mother nature you be trippin’ me out, gurl! After some trial and error, a solution of dish soap, sugar, and water was found to create bubbles that would freeze before hitting the ground. With air temperatures outside around 33 below zero, and winds at nearly hurricane force, the “experiment” was attempted in several different sheltered locations at the Sherman Adams State Park Building where temperatures were a few degrees warmer. One of the locations was warm enough that one could actually see the bubbles crystallizing, while the second location was several degrees colder, and the bubbles froze almost immediately. -33 BELOW ZERO? I’m not gonna lie, that’s waaaay too cold for me. Also, anything below 55. You laugh now but just wait until your balls freeze to your leg. I tore them off like a band-aid — there was a casualty. o-> -< . Hit the jump for the bubble-freezin' in action.

So I’m in Manhattan Beach waiting for some wine and cheese festival to begin (because I’m classy as shit free booze) and thought to myself, “self, you should really go the closest bar and write Geekologie articles until the wine starts flowing. You know, get a head start on the festivities.” BOOM — here I am! Popsicle handguns: they teach kids about gun safety. In 2003, Florian Jenett and Valentin Beinroth placed about 50 handgun replicas in downtown Frankfurt. The guns were made from tinted ice, making them look real at first sight. In 2009 they did a new edition of their Freeze! project but made the guns eatable by using coke, licorice, cherry and food coloring. I can hear the soccer moms screaming in outrage even as I type this. It’s like music to my ears . That said, you really shouldn’t encourage children to put gun-shaped objects in their mouths. Paint chips and LEGO blocks, sure, but guns? Not cool . Also not cool: this beer I’ve been drinking. Shit’s hotter than demon urine. OMG — I picked up somebody’s leftover . I was wondering why there was a napkin in the glass! Hit the jump for three more incredibly sensual shots, including a chick that looks like that chick that pretended to be a dude in that one movie.
