If you do any kind of wet chemistry or molecular biology, you probably have some supplies in your lab from Eppendorf International. Well, they have a new robotic pipetting machine. And, what better way to sell robots to scientists than by casting a ridiculous boy band and filming a music video!?!
Here’s the awesome video:

Perhaps it’s a response to BioRad’s PCR music video?
Thanks to mrcomfypants and froggy-dear for the
coolest cat toy ever!
Seriously, shoots foam darts AND projects a red dot? Whiskey
just about crapped his fluff.
Especially when the darts stick to the mirror,
which combines his two favorite past-times of chewing on things that
go “crunch” and looking at himself. And, Hungry Hungry Hippos were also to
be had, which is unpopular among neither the cats nor the humans. And all in
the name of St. Exuberance Day! (which as far as I can tell they
made up) Thanks!
I feel the exuberance! I like holidays.
So the other day I was totally rocking out at the diner with the Nerf Gun, you know, practicing my skills, and this ninja comes by and is all, like, “UR MORE AWESUM THAN ME!” and he exploded his own head by wailing on his electric guitar.
Wifey and I always put off going to the gym, and we always put off doing laundry, until finally on Sunday we say “that’s it, we have to do laundry today or we never will,” and “that’s it, we have to go to the gym today or we never will.” Hence therefore thus, there should be a Gymdromat. A gym with a laundromat attached. This is wifey’s idea, and we’re reminded of how often we would use such a business once a week pretty much. Any wealthy entrepreneurs listening?
I was listening to Hober Radio online while working today, and this Tuvan throat-singer named Kongar-ol Ondar came on. Wow, that’s amazing; they don’t use any kind of instrument to make that noise. They create crazy overtones, somehow, so they sing harmonies to themselves. You just have to listen… below is a video of Ondar playing alongside this other dude, Paul Pena, who in addition to playing slide guitar is doing the really low, growly throat singing. Ondar is the one who sounds like a combination of cicadas and whistles.
The video:
ur a geek if…
When you zone out in-front of your web browser, having forgotten what it was you were going to do, you instinctively type “ls” and hit ENTER.
Incidentally, in Firefox doing that will send you to the Wikipedia page on ls. Which is not nearly as helpful as listing the contents of the current directory.
Sorry, I don’t have the joke presentation style like Jeff Foxworthy.
