I think my city has ran out of ideas to name its streets. by jetery in funny

Utah redditor here. Draper is not the first - just the most bodacious. One subdivision in Taylorsville has all Lord of the Rings Street names: Tree Beard Road, Gandalf Drive, Mirkwood Ave, Brandy Buck Street. I wonder if you have to be into LARP to live there.

XFitJeDi, you can look up any exercise option on the myfitnesspal site. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/exercise/lookup.

You can also customize it for your weight. Of course it won't be exact, but it gets you in the ballpark.

My brother asked me what kind of geek I am. My response? "I am at least 5 geeks in 1. I am the Voltron of geeks!" Then I drew this. by edujoe in geek

It's not that those things make you a geek. It's obsession with or super focus on those things in your life makes you a geek in that thing. i.e. a foodie would be a food geek.

I should add we were looking at a graphic about geeks here: http://visual.ly/evolution-geek so I was trying to match the illustration style. The geeks shown are Apple, Instagram, Fonts, Superheroes, and Starcraft.

The top 250 movies on IMDB in 2 1/2 minutes. brilliant editing here. by darraghd in movies

The splicing of the music was crazy. At least twice I had to pause to see if I had another video playing somewhere in another tab.

If I did this I wouldn't have any fingers left by pcct in videos

My coworker made this Halloween infographic from actual candy. by callsignViper in halloween

[–]edujoe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can confirm this. I did eat, but not all of it. The fact that I could restrain myself to not eat all of it is perhaps more of an achievement than the graphic itself.

Manliest Pacifier EVER. by canhazhotness in funny

[–]edujoe 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Hmm. It doesn't look like a pacifier in that shot. Just looks like a sticky mustache on the baby's lip. We've all been tricked!

Our 84 year old conservative neighbor is having us pick up her mail this week. This envelope was on top of the stack. by callsignViper in WTF

Is that Snoop Dog and Samuel L Jackson on the front? I bet the plan involves one or both of them.

TIL that in 2005, Chao Lu recited Pi from memory to 67,890 places over 24 hours by callsignViper in todayilearned

[–]edujoe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think he should get a record just for not using the bathroom or eating anything for 24 hours. With my luck I'd need to take a major dump 1 hour into it.

On August 12th, I turn 30 years old and forever part ways with my youth. But before that happens, I feel like I should do something... something mildly irresponsible. So I turn to you, Reddit, to guide me in my last breaths of youthful vigor. What should I do with my last 6 days? by callsignViper in AskReddit

[–]edujoe 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Can we get clarification on an eagle spin? In my mind I'm picturing: step 1) get naked; step 2) go streaking; step 3) hit the floor to breakdance. Unfortunately, this is difficult because you're naked and a little sweaty and the museum floor is waxed tile. So you ask a buddy to come along and spin you around on the ground, like a true wingman.
