20 MORE Abandoned Buildings & Places
I’m a little obsessed with these buildings & places that have been forgotten about. Maybe I’m just trying to push my inner urban explorer to check out the abandoned psychiatric facility and the crumbling amusement park around my neck of the woods. This set has some really good ones, so go check them out.
An Indian politician is so thrilled to have one the recent election that he has sacrificed over 200 goats and four buffalo. Take that PETA. More info available at Metro.co.uk.
Some seriously Weird Flora
Divine Caroline has posted the 8 weirdest plants on earth. These things look like they belong in video games and the Adam’s family movies.
Some New Deserted Places
Some of them have been shown here before, but most of these are new.
I think my favorite is the “futuristic resort” (left) in Taiwan. They supposedly are haunted by those who died in their creation, making them one of the
few that really lives up to the “ghost town” name.
The one on the right is one of the more famous modern distaster zones -Chernobyl. Those living here had to leave pretty much all their possessions behind after the “accident.”
Than take some comfort in knowing that at least you aren’t a U.S. president. Mental Floss has more about the horrible humiliation presidents have had from their no-good family members. Above -Billy Carter’s beer.
Ironic Much?
Boing Boing has the story of 3 reporters getting shot at an anti-gun conference. ::Insert witty NRA jokes here::
BEST Geek Cake Yet
A hardcore detailed Mario wedding cake. My honey wants one of these for our wedding now. Seriously though, I couldn’t make myself cut that cake…it’s just too cool. Neatorama has more details.
Art For the Sophisticated 4 Year-Old
Really, these pieces of art, no pun intended, are fantastic. They are the most intellectual Lego art works I’ve ever seen in my life -no, that’s not saying much. Legoland has nothing on Nathan Sawaya.
I absolutely love them and wish they weren’t on such a crappy tour schedule around America.
Seriously, your only California stop is Redding? Redding? Lame! Ever hear of Los Angeles or San Francisco? Maybe even San Diego, home of LEGOLAND? Think about it.
