Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Long story short, she is someone who makes up outlandish stories of cancer, pregnancy and abusive boys in order to scam money off people. She also uses outrageous pick up lines ("I'd like to give you a handjob with my mouth") in order to seduce people. She's like a walking talking check cashing fraud machine. She's wanted on 6 counts of fraud in Salt Lake City for over $60,000.

What fascinates me is how many people she has conned and how she plays the asian girl thing to the hilt.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Sugar Stacks

Would you eat a stack of 16 sugar cubes?

A label can tell you there are 39 grams of sugar in your soda, but what does that much sugar look like?

SERVER IS SLOW!!!!
Please be patient our server is being bombarded by you all.

We've used regular sugar cubes (4 grams of sugar each) to show how the sugars in your favorite foods literally stack up, gram for gram.

Compare foods, find out where sugar is hiding, and see how much of the sweet stuff you're really eating.

You can see a video here where she apologizes for her mistakes, but still points out that Vice magazine still owes her a paycheck.

Certain things should not be steampunked....

Steampunk vibrator

[Ani Niow] built this steam powered vibrator. It has a milled stainless steel shell with a brass motor structure. The motor is a Tesla turbine made from a stack of Dremel diamond cutoff wheels. This drives an off-center weight to create the vibration. She tested it using a pressure cooker as the steam source. It worked, but became so hot it had to be held using welding gloves. It works just as well with compressed air though.

It looks cool, although a bit too scary to put near one's privates.
