Food Buzz Sorry, horses, we no longer think you're awesome, thanks to this terrifying video.
Tech Buzz Ever wanted to have a fully customizable pet spider walking around your computer screen? Me neither. But now, you can, with Virtual Spider! By adjusting spider attributes like spider color, spider speed, leg size and body scale, Virtual Spider really makes your arachnophobic dreams come true.
Quite literally the scariest video we’ve ever seen on YouTube (especially if you fear snakes). We’ll stick with kittens and puppies, thanks.
Creepy and fascinating, the goop takes on a life of its own over a vibrating subwoofer. It’s not alien biological material — just a simple mixture of water and cornstarch and bass.
Although it only falls at #7 on Cracked’s list of the Creepiest Real-Life Robots, we’re pretty convinced it does the job just fine. Professor Hiroshi Ishiguro of Osaka University hasn’t just built Geminoid to appear as his own doppelganger, but more so as a “slightly retarded younger brother.” And that does …absolutely nothing to put as at ease.
A designer takes a look at the robot beneath all those cuddly stuffed animals. This is both scary and confirms my long-standing suspicion of all talking/moving stuffed animals. Don’t trust the robots!

Movie Buzz A live action movie based on the Japanese manga (graphic novel) hits selected American theaters to the joy of all goth-y introverts within an 60-mile radius of any art house theater. Allegedly having served as the inspiration for real-life murders, Death Note looks about as inviting as watching Hello Kitty get euthanized.
Science Buzz Scientists in New Zealand have finally thawed and examined a giant frozen squid caught in the Antarctic early last year. There were no reports today of a giant squid on the loose in Wellington, so all must have gone according to plan.
Culture Buzz Posing as a 10-year-old boy, pop culture historian Bill Geerhart wrote letters to iconic politicians and murderers, and they all wrote back including Charles Manson and Dick Cheney. It’s like Dear Mr. Henshaw for the cold-blooded set.
Business Buzz Hotels abandoned before completion have an eerie presence. From Disney World to the sands of the Sinai, luxury hotels have become modern ruins when financing dries up. Here’s some spooky video footage and photo evidence of the abandoned skeletons.
