WATCH: Guy Attempts To Drink A Gallon Of Tabasco Sauce

 Now, I love me some Tabasco sauce, but this is ridiculous.
Professional competitive eater "L.A. Beast", who hosts a challenge-based channel on YouTube, attempted to drink a whole gallon of the stuff.
The 10-minute video was uploaded back in 2014 but it's insane enough to re-post at any time in the history of earth. However, you might want to look away around the 8:40 mark.


  Why anybody would want to do that is beyond me. Just thinking about the expulsion of all that hot sauce is enough to make me cry.

‘Man Braids’ Are Here, Do Exactly What They Say On The Tin


It’s official, ‘man braids’ have landed and they are definitely dividing opinions.
Evolving from the ‘man bun’, the style has made its way into male hipster fashion just 15 short years after ‘Legolas’ first appeared in the Lord of the Ringsmovies.
But is it a good thing?

Footballers seem to like it.




Fair play to any man who does spend hours on YouTube painstakingly learning how to put a plait in place, and kudos for the commitment to growing your hair.
However, attempting to claim the braid as a ‘man’ style doesn’t seem all that fair at all, does it?


Google Earth Doesn’t Want You To See These Mysterious Secret Sites


Google Earth has put the world at your fingertips: from the Pyramids of Giza to the Great Wall of China everything and anywhere is just a click away, but even Google has its secrets.
news.com.au have reported a number of sensitive areas which are blacked out or hidden on Google Earth, and conspiracy theorists claim these sites hide sinister secrets.
Here’s a list of the hidden areas.

HAARP, Washington-Oregon border



The mysterious and secretive HAARP (High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program) was located near the Washington-Oregon border.
The US Air Force shut down the research facility – which studied an energetic and active region of the upper atmosphere known as the ionosphere – in 2014, however it remains blacked out on Google maps.
Conspiracy theorists have long believed that HAARP was a program designed to build a device to control the weather, while some have said it’s a UFO test site.
After the Haiti earthquake in 2010 the Venezuelan leader, Huge Chavez, claimed HAARP, or a program like it triggered the earthquake.

The secret city, Russia



Deep in the Siberian Tundra there’s an area that appears blurred out on Google and nobody knows why.
Back 1986, Russia claimed there were dozens of ‘closed cities’ around their country. These mysterious towns have strict travel and residency restrictions and specific permission is needed to visit them.
It’s thought that these towns are probably sensitive military establishments or secret research installations which need much more space or freedom than is available in a conventional military base.
These cities usually have mysterious numbers attached to their names, such as Arzamas-16, which was the home of the atomic engineers who put an end to America’s nuclear monopoly. Some have suggested this blurred piece of tundra may be one of Russia’s ‘secret cities’.
One writer on the website Siberian Light speculates it’s either ‘a radar station or missile interceptor,’ while another theory is that the image of the area has just been copy-pasted from another part of the country.

Portlaoise Prison, Ireland



Portlaoise Prison in Ireland’s County Laois is a high-security prison where the country houses some of its most dangerous criminals.
The prison isn’t blurred on Google Earth, but anyone who takes a look at the prison on the map may notice that the colours of the image don’t match with its surroundings.
This is because the view on Google Earth is of an old prison, believed to be a security precaution to stop people planning an escape from the facility.

 The Faroe Islands, Denmark



The Faroe Islands are a self-governing archipelago, and a part of Denmark. They’re made up of 18 volcanic islands between Iceland and Norway in the North Atlantic Ocean.
Oddly, a large area of the islands is missing, including an old WWII military base on the island of Vágar.
No one is quite sure why parts of the Faroe Islands, home to 50,000 people, are pixelated, but news.com.au claim that it’s nothing exciting like a UFO base and is probably something to do with fishing rights.

Százhalombatta Oil Refinery, Hungary



When Google photographed the Százhalombatta Oil Refinery in Hungary they asked that the image be coloured green and have its building and grounds removed from satellite photos – but no one really knows why.
Even stranger, though, is that the green blocks out a field of grass with nothing on top of it.

Kangtega, Nepal



Kangtega, known also as The Snow Saddle, is a huge mountain peak in the Himalayas, Nepal.
For completely unknown reasons the Saddle is blacked out on Google Earth, although it’s believed by some to be a simple glitch in the system.

Man Confronts Teenagers In Tesco After They Scratch His Car


A video is currently doing the rounds on social media of a man who followed two teenage lads into a Tesco after he spotted them scratching his car.
In the post on Facebook, Luke Joseph wrote: “Laid in bed hears a couple of lads outside… The nosey an paranoid twat I am jumps up has a look outa window, low n behold behold 2 lads outside laughing walking down rd being stupid.”
He continues: “scratched my car again. As im watchin em walk down TO MY SHOCK They scratched the Bentley few doors on.. which I saw with my own eyes..Fact… Shouted at the door n they ran like fuk.”

Luke then goes on to say how he quickly got himself dressed and jumped into his car to try and track the lads down, before managing to follow them into a Tesco.The following scenario ensued…



We wouldn’t suggest this form of action every time, but at least he had his phone available. Only time will tell if his car’s bodywork has been given a rest.
At least he doesn’t own the Bentley…

This Is How To Rid Your Facebook Of ‘Be Like Bill’ Memes


You’ve probably lost count of how many times you’ve seen this prick on your Facebook feed…
Bill has attracted an audience of millions around the world in a matter of weeks, with his passive-aggressive statuses flooding social media and I think we have had enough now.
Originally invented to give people lessons in how to be less annoying online, people posting their own customised versions are somehow managing to be to even more infuriating. Who’d have thought it?

But don’t threat, if you don’t want to be like Bill we have a way to get rid of the smarmy stick figure- once and for all.
Just click on the drop down arrow on the right of the post, select ‘Hide all from’ whichever app they used to create this monstrosity and then you’ll be free.

Amsterdam Is Now Home To The World’s First Dedicated Hotel For Gamers

If you’ve ever visited Amsterdam, you’ll know it’s a magical place. Mostly for the sights and the people of course, and definitely not the vast amounts of readily available weed. Whatever your views on recreational drug use anyway, it’s a great place to visit. Now, thanks to a a new dedicated gamer hotel, it just became even greater.
The Arcade Hotel in Amsterdam has been dubbed the “world’s first hotel for gamers” where guests can hang out, play retro classics as well as modern titles, and do all that other boring hotel stuff like sleep in luxury, eat delicious food, and drink half your weight in gin. If you’ve ever wanted to see if you’d still be any good at Duck Hunt after getting mashed on booze, this is the place to do it.

Located in the De Pijp area, the hotel has 36 rooms, each with a retro gaming console included – no extra charge. As if that wasn’t enough for you, you greedy devils, there’s a selection of comic books from the likes of DC and Dark Horse for you to read while you wait for your turn in one of the communal gaming lounges.
At the grand opening last week, guests were treated to an outdoor FIFAtournament, with street food and gin tasting. Hotel owner Daniel Salmanovich also spoke of plans to expand the number of rooms to 46 to accommodate yet more gaming enthusiasts from around the world.

So The Arcade Hotel looks all set to become a must see destination for anyone with a love of videogames… just remember if you go that there’s plenty of other great stuff to see and do in Amsterdam, as tempting as it would be to hole up and have a SNES marathon all weekend long.

Getting Annoyed By Chewing And Slurping Noises Is A Genuine Psychiatric Disorder


One of the things I'm sure most of us will all agree on is that loud chewing is an absolute travesty that should earn you a one way ticket to the depths of fucking hell.
Hearing someone chomping wildly on a Big Mac or slurping their morning coffee, to the point where they might inhale the cup, can make you feel like your head is about to explode.

Well there's news for all of us who feel this way, you're suffering from a psychiatric disorder called Misophonia.
This translates directly to 'hatred of sound', which to be honest is accurate for most of us. The sound of other people's voices can literally send us into meltdown. However, it doesn't mean that you are just a hater to anything that makes a sound and would rather be deaf, it just means that there are certain noises that'll trigger anger and an uncomfortable scenario.
The best example I can think is when someone drags their nails over a surface and it makes a screeching noise - that is painful to my ears.

The loud chewing of chewing gum is high up on my list. It makes an unbearable noise and if the perpetrator doesn't realise it sends me into an even deeper pit of rage.
Other things are the sound of Katie Hopkins being a grade A bellend - affects me weekly. The sound of Iggy Azalea thinking she's an acceptable addition to the music industry, and the brain farts that Donald Trump makes when in front of a microphone.
