Smooth move Cyclops, now the building’s on fire. Because what good is science if we can’t all shoot lasers out of our eyeballs and take staring contests to a whole new level , researchers have successfully spliced jellyfish DNA into human cells, allowing them to produce biological lasers. It’s gonna be like a giant game of Asteroids happening inside you! All it takes to make a laser is something that lights up, plus a structure that can amplify and focus that light into a coherent beam. In the case of these biolasers, human kidney cells have been genetically enhanced to produce the proteins that make jellyfish glow. These glowing cells were stuck between two tiny mirrors barely bigger than the cell itself, and when the cell was energized with blue light through a microscope, it fired out a bright green directional laser beam that was visible to the naked eye, just like a little laser pointer. BOOSH, laser pointer eyes. I have no concept what purpose they’d serve besides looking cool, but isn’t that the most important purpose anyway? It is. *trying to find straw my with tongue without looking* Scientists combine humans with jellyfish to create living lasers [dvice] Thanks to Eli, who’s worried Cyclops might not feel so special anymore.

Not to brag or anything but I’m cleverly packaged too if you know what I mean. I mean my wiener can solve word problems all by itself. Got me through middle-school , just sayin’! The “Miswak,” a teeth cleaning twig used throughout the Muslim world in lieu of modern toothbrush models, gets updated packaging for Western markets courtesy of School of Visual Arts student Leen Sadder. Traditionally, the Miswak’s bark is chewed off to expose the brush-like fibers underneath, but for commercial purposes, Sadder opted to include a lid that doubles as a tip-trimmer. I’d never actually heard of the Miswak before so I did some very brief research and found out it might actually be more effective than a toothbrush. WTF, ORAL B?! A 2003 scientific study comparing the use of miswak with ordinary toothbrushes concluded that the results clearly were in favor of the users who had been using the miswaak, provided they had been given proper instruction in how to brush using it. Granted that’s just one study and I usually pass out on the couch without brushing my teeth anyways, but I actually like mossy teeth. Back me up, Ents! “It’s true, he tries to climb in our mouths when we’re asleep and lick our molars — the kid’s a freak”. Wow, TMI Oak-face. Now shut your woodpecker-hole and and take me to Gondor. Toothbrush Redesign of the Day [thedailywh.at] Thanks to Sue, who flosses with barbed-wire because her dentist told her it’s good for the gums. Are, uh, are you sure that wasn’t just the nitrous talking?

The Stick Toothbrush: Now Cleverly Packaged

This is a video of some lunatic talking about elves and how you can attract them with pineapples and chopsticks and a million other things he came up with in his LSD -riddled mind. Say — did you know elves are the official caretakers of the unicorns ? I’m not even kidding, he says that. Too bad we all know it’s actually the forest nymphs, hack! Captain Crazy also made a video where he shifts his focus to leprechauns, which I took the liberty of embedding after the jump as well. You know, just in case eight minutes of elf-rambling isn’t enough for you. Which let’s be honest, never is. Do Smurfs next you crazy f***! Hit the jump for more crazy than you can shake an elf-attracting chopstick at.
