Who wants a giant Cheeseburger Bed?
(8 foot diameter)
This bed (erroneously called a “Hamburger Bed” but still awesome) is on sale via eBay (the source of the picture). You can read a little about the bed here. As creator of the BurgerMap, I’m considering bidding on this, however, I want to first make sure it won’t [...]
CNN reports that Night Owls (people who prefer to be active at night to the morning) can be kind of out of it in the morning but actually get stronger at night, while Early Birds (morning people) have relatively constant abilities over the course of the day. I made a graph, as I am wont [...]

First new episodes are scheduled to air in 2010. This is awesome [...]
This week’s badass award goes to an angry mob in Kensington, a rough and economically distressed neighborhood in Philadelphia, PA.

For those of you who live near a Wawa, rejoice! It’s HoagieFest 2009! For those of you who don’t live near a Wawa, consider moving.
I can’t think of anything that fits the spirit of Life in Awesomeopolis better than HoagieFest. It takes something already awesome, Wawa, and layers on top of it some pure unadulterated [...]
You know what’s awesome? Eating. What’s more awesome than that? Eating really delicious food. And what’s even more awesome than that? Eating an astronomical amount of really delicious food. Is it any wonder, then, that Takeru Kobayashi and Joey Chestnut have become household names?
