Now that we know more about Darth (“The Jedi formerly known as ‘Anakin Skywalker'”) Vader’s early years, it only makes sense that the crucial scene in The Empire Strikes Back should be remade this way:

Procrastination
(Found via Reddit.)
Even the relatively low-tech field of baking has adopted computers: a number of bakeries can now “print” photos onto a cake with an ordinary inkjet printer, edible paper and food-grade dyes. If you’re not satisfied with posting pictures of your cat on your blog, you can join the ranks of the edible imagers — there are companies like Icing Images and Icing Magic who carry the necessary supplies and books.
Since edible imaging is done with a computer, it’s only natural that someone would create a web order form where customers could enter the message they’d like to have printed on the cake. Of course, it helps to make sure that you’ve got the web application debugged; otherwise, you’ll get results like the one shown below:

Those of you who are web developers will recognize the Microsoft conditional comments peppered all over the cake.
I suppose that nerds could give each other cakes with error messages printed on them — “444: Birthday entity too old,” and such.
For a little more detail on what happened with this cake, see this article.

I’d like to try this sometime, but I doubt the folks at my local grocery store are going to let me:

One of the top items on Reddit today is a link to a “Best of Craigslist” posting titled Underwear Goes Inside the Pants, a funny rant about some of the problems in modern American society (it’s applicable to us here in Canada too).
This part always cracks me up:
I walked behind this guy the other day. A homeless guy asked him for money.
He looks right at the homeless guy and says “Why don’t you go get a job, you bum?”
People always say that to homeless guys like it is so easy.
This homeless guy was wearing his underwear outside his pants. Outside his pants.
I’m guessing his resume isn’t all up to date. I’m predicting some problems during the interview process.
The person who posted Underwear Goes Inside the Pants to Craigslist didn’t write it. It’s a stand-up comic routine by Greg Giraldo; it was then set to music by “Lazy B” (formerly “Lazyboy”, but a certain manufacturer of reclining chairs took issue with the name), a project started by a former member of Aqua (yes, the Aqua behind that annoying bubble-gum number, Barbie Girl). If you’ve never heard the rant or tune before, here’s the music video. Enjoy!

"Garfield" Meets "Jacob’s Ladder"
Continuing with today’s theme of comics, here’s an interesting collision of ideas: Garfield and the movie Jacob’s Ladder:
By the bye, I found the trailer for Jacob’s Ladder on YouTube:
