That bike mod is most likely street legal, in the sense it doesn't violate any vehicle ordinances or traffic laws. Whether it'll pass the decency check is the question. I mean, technically she's covered the important bits (nipples, is wearing a thong, etc), but the dude basically threw good taste out the window.

You know, I just know that somewhere in Japan someone is planning on manufacturing a Pikachu AED.

"Alright everyone....CLEAR!!" (Doctor shoves the pikachu on the chest of some dying guy.)
"Sir, your doing it wrong!" a nurse say's.
"What do you mean?" The Doctor said, angry, thinking that he was about to lose a patient.
"Its like this. Pikachu! THUNDERBOLT!!!!" She yelled.
*PikaaaaaaaaCHU!!!!!!!!*
(A huge bolt of electricity comes down and blasts everyone but the nurse, patent who got hit, and Pikachu back about twenty feet.)
The Doctor climbs out of a wall, and sees the Patent up doing the worm on the burning floor, saying completely random things.
"Right. But now he might be brain damaged." He said to the Nurse. "Anyway, that would be (Insert stupid amount of cash.)" He said to the Patient, putting out a little fire on his Doctor's coat.

That one seems straightforward enough to me - he's a photographer with a digital camera and a printer right there, so he can take pictures of tourists and sell the prints.
- CD, Add a laptop and he could digitally retouch them as well. You know how they say the camera adds ten pounds? Well, I've taken them off on more than one occasion...

Well that was a wasted day ... grumblemuttermicrosofthewlettpackardcursegrowl ... I could have done any number of better things with my time. What do you say, Oh Great Cap'Tcha?What would I have been able to use this lost time for, if the world were under your Perfect Rule?
Egads! Ficcing Star Wars! If only I could have done that, it would have been awesome. People would like my story! They'd call me "Bro!" I'd be a Jedi Master of the Internets, if it wasn't for those darn vendors and their bloatware!

An entire series of WTF!?
(Warning, this link goes through Google Translation so the result is wonky at best)
http://translate.google.com/translate?j ... ab0acb115a]SD VF-25 Messiah, almost full variable
I call it "almost" fully transformable because as with many other SD style designs the head has to be removed to do so. Links at the bottom of the page show the disassembled linkages involved.
- CD
ETA: Only one group can save the galaxy now... Tengen Toppa Rogue Squadron!
And if you don't see why that Should Not Be, consider the Jedi Code as compared to the Anti-Spirals and contrasted with users of Spiral Energy... Still more WTF than CTSNB, becasue I'd read it to watch the train wreck.

They get huge cool points for including NECRON-99, but lose them for not including Tom Server, Crow and Gypsy.

Some places, I wouldn't have blinked at this... but this photo was taken in a small town on the Canadian side of the St. Lawrence River.

The jets would be easy to 'shop, but just as easy to arrange and snap if you're the pilot of the fighter. The Department of Safety is a good 'shop if at all - the edges of the vinyl decal are lit up from the sunlight shining on and partially into them from the mirror, which is trickier to get right than it sounds.

To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if it was authentic. I've nearly been swept off the road by more than one idiot texting on their phone. BTW: Recent evidence suggest the Dilbert Principle applies to Texas Government.

In the jet shadow on an airplane photo, given that the sun appears to be in the background of the photo, wouldn't that make the position of the shadow impossible?
