When you’re reading a book, you probably don’t think about what it takes to turn each page.

But what if you could turn each page turn into an event?

That’s what Joseph Herscher has done with The Page Turner, a Rube Goldberg machine that lets you sip coffee while waiting for the page to turn, and let the machine take care of the rest.

Zombie Plush Slippers are guaranteed to be the grossest things you can stick on your feet.

Featuring non-skid soles, embroidered details, and ‘interactive’ elements like eyes that pop out of their sockets and extra long tongues, they’re both comfy, and fun.

Sure, doing tricks on a bicycle is hard.

But doing tricks on a vintage ladies bicycle? Impossible, right?

Apparently not:

Consider me impressed.

Take ping pong, add the ability to tilt and shift the table using buttons or a pre-programmed pattern, and you’ve got Swing Pong, a new game that adds an innovative twist to an old favorite:

The Tool Tank is a multi-tool keychain that features 3 screwdriver bits cleverly disguised within the tracks of a tank.

Each bit magnetically attaches to the turret, which rotates up for use. Just pick your bit, rotate the turret and you’ve got yourself a clever little screwdriver that’s always ready to do ‘battle’ with chores around the house.

Sled is a company out of Boston, Massachusetts and Brooklyn, New York that crafts handmade leather and wood products into classic and distinctive accessories using natural materials.

Their flagship product, the Runner, is a cowhide and birch wood back housing bezel that completely replaces the glass back of the iPhone 4 and 4S.

It works with both Verizon/CDMA and AT&T/GSM, and adds an unmistakable warmth and unique character to your phone.

What you see here is a Ferrari F430 that has been covered in cowhide and then tattooed by French artist Phillipe Pasqua.

It sounds ridiculous, but the end result is rather impressive, so I’m sure this isn’t the last time we see a leather covered supercar prowling the streets.

I had no idea that pogo stick tricks were even possible, but as this video shows, they’re not only possible, they’re actually pretty legit:

Miguel Endara made a drawing of his dad, called “Hero”, out of 3.2 million dots of ink, and documented the process so you can see what it looks like:

Artist Mary Ellen Croteau proves that recycling can be beautiful with her work, titled Close, made entirely of bottle caps.

According to Mary:

Plastic bottle caps – like bags, a plastic product that can’t be/isn’t recycled. I conceived of an “endless column” of these caps, after Constantin Brancussi’s iconic modernist sculpture. One became two, and two became many. While making these columns, I noticed the smaller caps tended to nest inside one another, and the color combinations reminded me of Chuck Close’s painted portraits. So I got sidetracked and started on a large self-portrait made entirely of bottle caps. The piece measures 8 feet by 7 feet. No paint is used, except to delineate a few shadows where white board was showing through. In a few cases, the caps are trimmed in order to fit a tight space.

Before serving your guests a freshly made Cherpumple, you’re going to need a main course worthy of such a delicious desert.

So what goes well with pie-on-pie pandemonium?

How about the tarDunkin’, a turkey brined in Dunkin’ Donuts Coolattas, stuffed with Munchkins and served with coffee gravy and mashed hash browns?

Yup; it doesn’t get much better than that.

What the Turducken is to birds, the Cherpumple is to cakes.

A Cherpumple is an apple pie, a cherry pie and a pumpkin pie each cooked inside of a cake, and then combined into another cake and then covered in frosting.

The example you see here weighed in at more than 20 pounds, and took 200 guests more than 4 hours to finish.

When Girl Scout Cookie time rolls around each year (they sell them from October through March) I’m usually good for at least a few boxes of Thin Mints and Samoas, but do you know what varieties are the most popular?

Wired put together this delicious looking pie chart to compare sales data, and show you how your favorites stack up:

Wonderputt is adventure golf, “but with cows, toads, ski slopes, torpedos and a sprinkle of alien abduction for good measure.”

The result is a surprisingly entertaining game that’s easy to play, but hard to master.

My first trip through the course, I managed to shoot 27 under par, scoring 81,528 points and ranking a Colourful Relaxed Eagle.

See if you can beat that!

If it looks like a pizza, and tastes like a pizza, it must be a� snack food?

What you see here is actually a meta-pizza, made from a variety of pizza flavored snacks, including Pizza Supreme Doritos, Pizzalicious Pringles, Pepperidge Farm Flavor Blasted Xplosive Pizza Goldfish crackers, Pepperoni Pizza Combos, and pizza flavored hummus:

Delicious, I’m sure.
