Odori-don is a sushi dish with a dead octopus that dances when soy sauce is poured on it.
Thing is, you’re all ‘ho ho ho they were funny in the olden times before this type of thing looked kinda creepy and weird.’
But introducing….
THE DADDLE!
It’s made by a company called Cashel and either someone working there needs to find an outlet for their desires or else they just have a mega-awesome sense of humour and a hands-off-the-wheel supervisor cos seriously, click the link and check out the picture on the homepage.
Anyway, the Daddle is about thirty bucks on amazon. I’m buying six and building an army.

“I know I’ve been really getting stuck into shitty homemade pizza lately but seriously, what the fuck is this? what is the green topping? I have absolutely no idea. Are they really big chives? Is this actually a homemade pizza or some kind of pie? Did someone run over a turtle, cover it in cheese and put it in the oven? Why should I have to ask so many questions about a pizza?”

The cryoscope is (well, you know already, if you watched the video) a small box that uses the magic of the internet to let you feel the temperature forecast for the next day.

Dirty Soup has teamed up with Rattling Stuff and Colour TV to produce the first in a series of music sessions for GQ.com and the GQ iPad app edition.
This first session features American singer-songwriter John Grant, and was filmed at Gibson Guitar Studios in London.
Conceived as the musical equivalent of the ‘chef’s table’, John spoke to GQ about the writing process behind his acclaimed debut album ‘Queen Of Denmark’, and the emotional heartache behind ‘Vietnam’, the new and exclusive track he performed for the session.
GQ Sessions are directed by Cassidy Burcher, produced by Genevieve Stevens, with Raife, Ringan Ledwidge and Jay Pond-Jones as executive producers.
You can watch the full session by downloading the GQ UK iPad app.

Night Witches
For those not in the know, night witches were russian lady bombers who bombed the shit out of German lines in WW2. Thing is though, they had the oldest, noisiest, crappest planes in the entire world. The engines used to conk out halfway through their missions, so they had to climb out on the wings mid flight to restart the props. the planes were also so noisy that to stop germans from hearing them combing and starting up their anti aircraft guns, they’d climb up to a certain height, coast down to german positions, drop their bombs, restart their engines in midair, and get the fuck out of dodge.
Their leader flew over 200 missions and was never captured.
