Parallel Studio, a Paris-based motion design team have created this very amusing but very unsatisfying animated short film that shows various annoying, frustrating, and disappointing situations that happen in everyday life. From the vending machine that doesn’t quite vend to a basketball that bounces around, but doesn’t fall down, the hoop.

In fiction, both novels, films, comics, and other forms humans have for a long time imagined alien beings from other worlds and other planets, but often their emotions and physiologies closely mirror our own.

Even though humans probably won’t be going to Mars for at least another 15 to 20 years or more, it seems everybody is obsessed with what conditions on the planet will be like. This latest video comes from Vox who take a look at ways a trip to the hostile red planet might end you.

Most people use longboards to race downhill at speeds that are extremely dangerous yet exhilirating, but this woman uses it for something else entirely. She uses it to perform an impressive dance routine which can’t be easy at all, bouncing around and keeping her balance while riding along on four wheels.
As the noted cosmologist Carl Sagan said there are more stars in the universe than there are grains of sand on all of the Earth’s beaches. But equally, there are more molecules of H20 in only 10 drops of water than there are stars in the universe. But how can we imagine such concepts and vast volumes when they’re so huge?
Saving Private Ryan basically becomes Inglorious Basterds in this trailer edit by Mashable which boots Steven Spielberg out from the director’s chair and replaces him with Quentin Tarantino. So if you were ever kept awake at night pondering what the classic war movie might be like had it been directed by Hollywood’s enfant terrible, this will show you.
