The Forecasting Unbrella

This umbrella is supposed to predict the weather for you in some innovative way. Sometimes I really don’t know how marketing works. It must be something like that:
“Let’s make an umbrella that can predict the weather. I mean it’s just natural to ask your umbrella if it’s going to rain or not. For example, I always want to ask my underwear if it’s time to wash them. Let’s make that product too and call it the wash-me-already panties.”

How fast can you stack cups?

I didn’t know this was an actual sport, but it turns out cup stacking is a pretty famous thing. Check out Emily Fox’s record video. Just to show you how serious this thing is, you can also look at Speed Stacks for the latest news on cup stacking.

Searching even further into Google’s soon-to-be-official video marketplace, Google Video, I found that cup stacking is not the only cup game around. There’s also cup flipping, although not an official sport like stacking, flipping is more of a social game.
