NoodleHair Guard Is Bwah-Ha-Ha-Tastic

If you enjoy looking like some sort of flower, the kind you might see during a mild hallucination or a Dr. Seuss cartoon, then I have just the thing for you. Alright, so I don’t actually have the item in my possession, but I’m sure that a few mouseclicks from this post would lead to an actual product page, though it might be in Japanese.

What this product does, besides make you look silly, is it keeps your hair out of your noodles. Why they only market this at noodle eaters is beyond me- maybe they have a grudge.

I’d like to throw in the highly cliched ‘only in japan’ statement, but I’ll spare you by beating around the bush and saying that while they eat tons of pasta, this obviously didn’t come out of Italy.

Deadly Dining

“The Eternity” is a coffin shaped restaurant that serves up morbid-sounding dishes. Created by undertakers, and measuring in at 20 meters in length, six meters wide and six meters tall, it is possibly the world’s largest coffin.

Now, this whole coffin themed restaurant really isn’t something that I can get into. It’s also definitely not something that I would travel to see. I could imagine some goth kids really getting into it, but this isn’t for me.

On the pre-death side of the restaurant spectrum, the Heart Attack Grill is a place that I have actually been:

My wife went with me- she’s such a good sport.

There are more videos of the Heart Attack Grill under the “opportunities” tab, and the coffin restaurant was found DOA at Pinay Wife Speaks. Just for good measure, here’s the Heart Attack Grill Wiki.


Lab Grown Meat

PBS asks the general public if they would eat lab-produced meat. A majority said that they would not. I agree wholeheartedly- lab-produced meat is one futuristic technology that I can live without. I wonder if they’ll start by sneaking it in to frozen dinners?

Found in the frozen food aisle at High-T3ch.
