This is a glass floor supported entirely by the combined effort of 180,000 little plastic people . It was constructed by South Korean artist Do Ho Suh and at first I thought all the figurines were women and the floor represented the glass ceiling , but then I realized I got high with the bartender on my lunch break and I’m reading way too far into things. Oh shit, oh shit — this popup says I just won an iPad! Hit the jump for several more shots from various zooms.

This is a rendering of Link and some of his various swords/weapons (more after the jump) created by LEGO/Zelda lover Michael Inglis. Michael has actually been 3-D printing his own Zelda accessories for awhile, but hopes LEGO and Nintendo might rub butts in the future and produce some real, licensed playsets. OMG, yes! Then — THEN — they could make a LEGO Zelda video game but instead of being 3-D like the rest of them will be an HD reboot of the original AAAAAH BONER BONER BONER. Hit the jump for some more accessories, a stop-motion LEGO/Zelda movie Michael made a couple years ago, as well as the link to the “petition” which LEGO will review if it collects 10,000 likes.

LEGO, realizing they dun goofed targeting their entire product line to boys , is releasing a line of playsets in 2012 targeted specifically to little ladies. It’s called ‘Friends’, which is a terrible name but I can look past that because I just saw a guy pushing an ice cream cart like a block further. *running out the door* Mickey face and an orange push-pop! Lego Friends features five female minifig characters who are — you guessed it — friends. Their occupations include designer, musician, veterinarian and inventor, and there are playsets for both home and work. Hey, anything’s better than playing with Barbie, amirite? WRONG. I know a lot of people want to give Barbie a bad rap for her unrealistic proportions and shit, but come on, I had some beefy looking G.I. Joe’s growing up and I’m fat as f*** right now. Never once have I starved myself or worked out in a gym. That’s all true. Besides, there are plenty of other things worse for a girl to be playing with. Namely: matches or a parent’s handgun. Food for thought. “You’re retarded.” They said only borderline! Hit the jump for a sampling of the future sets.

Because LEGO and Christmas go together like stirring peas & corn into instant mashed potatoes (aka shitter’s pie), a 33-ft LEGO Christmas tree was erected in London’s St Pancras (the patron saint of internal organs) station. And this is it. It’s tall and plastic. Me? I’m short and fleshy . Kidding, I’m tall and as handsome as a penis wearing a bow-tie. “And tuxedo?” Okay now you’re just being ridiculous. Hit the jump for a ton more pictures, at least one of which features an annoyed looking girl on a cell phone. It’s like a really shitty Where’s Waldo!

Make-believe anatomist Jason Freeny is back with another lesson, this time in the form of a LEGO minifig . You ever wonder what was inside those little guys? SPOILER: guts, just like inside you and me! Kidding, I’m solid penises and a coal-black heart. You know how the Grinch’s heart was three sizes too small? Well mine’s the size of a rabbit turd and happiness makes me vomit. Hit the jump for a couple shots of the process and a link to Jason’s Facebook with even more.

This is a $165 Solid Grey backpack . It’s made out of single piece of rigid polyprene (plastic) and would look even better painted like a ninja turtle shell . But what wouldn’t? *eying coffee table* Okay, that one I might have f***ed up. These unique bags feature a folding hardshell design, EPDM foam lining and straps for keeping your tablet or laptop safe and secure, two interior compartments for keeping small items handy, a built-in document clip — so your papers don’t end up smashed at the bottom of the bag — and a flexible fit, which means your back will like it just as much as your eyes do. Yeah, I dunno how my spine is gonna feel about that hard back. What do you think, spine? “Scoliosis.” Ha — what about it? “You remember in middle school when you and all the other boys had to take your shirts off in the locker room so the gym teacher could make sure I wasn’t bent?” Yes… “And you remember how all the other boys started laughing?” Yes… “It was because of your tits.” WHAT?!?! You said it was because somebody farted! This…wow — you just set my therapy back like a decade. Hit the jump for several more shots including one with an ass gone horribly, horrible wrong.

This is a little Angry Birds level recreated entirely out of LEGO by Flickr user SavaTheAggie. “Angry Birds is stupid!” Is it? Then why have I 3-starred every level ever created AND found all the golden eggs? “I don’t know, because you spend a lot on the john with your iPhone?” My legs feel like pins & needles! Hit the jump for a couple closeups.

Your barrel’s saggin’, bro. God, if I had a nickel for every time somebody told me my barrel was droopy I’d be pounding an Egg McMuffin right now. This is Nick Jensen and his 1:1 scale replica Halo: Reach LEGO sniper rifle . I…wouldn’t want to be on the receiving end of it (butt or otherwise). Based on the Halo: Reach incarnation of the weapon, it’s 63 inches long, weighs over ten pounds and features a removable magazine, moving safety and sliding bolt (it doesn’t actually fire, though). It also took over four months to complete. Good lookin’, Nick. I’ve seen a lot of LEGO guns in my day, and let me tell you: don’t ever bring one to a knife fight. It may seem like a good idea if you’ve been drinking, but you WILL get cut, and you WILL bleed. You ever had a blood transfusion before? They filled me with Kool-Aid. Hit the jump for a couple more shots but follow the link for higher-res versions.

This is a classification of bread clips because doctors contributing to the British Medical Journal want to create a “gastrointestinally safer” version by pointing out all the dangers the ones currently in use. Alternatively, LEARN HOW TO MAKE A F***ING SANDWICH WITHOUT EATING THE GOT-DAMN BREAD CLIP. Hit the jump for a close-up of the anatomy of a bread clip and a phylogenetic tree (yes, seriously).

This is a Coke billboard in the Philippines touting the company’s greenliness. How earth-friendly is Coke besides the billboard? I have no clue. Probably not very. Whenever I have to guess about something like this I always err on the side of “companies really don’t give a shit and will only do enough to give the appearance that they do.” Hey, I could be wrong though (except there’s no way because a Mountain Dew rep actually told me that). The 60 x 60 foot living billboard in Manila is made of thousands of Fukien tea plants surrounding the iconic curvy shape of a silver Coke bottle. The project with the CO2-eating plants was created in conjunction with Coca-Cola Philippines’ Live Positively sustainability program. Pots made from recycled bottles contain the 3,600 trees, which live off a mixture of organic fertilizers. Though they are currently in the first stages of growth, the plants are expected to grow quickly, completely taking over the billboard surface, absorbing a total of 46,800 pounds of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Who knows, maybe I’m just being cynical. Well — what’s your opinion? “It’d be cooler if that was ganja growing out of it.” OMG — so we could shoot flaming arrows at it and get high?! I WAS THINKING THE EXACT SAME THING! Coca-Cola Plant Billboard Absorbs Air Pollution [huffingtonpost] Thanks to Pat, who agrees the best technology is green technology. Wait like earth-friendly, or alien?
