Prometheus and Bob


P and B is a series of claymation cartoons that was on the Nickelodeon show Kablam! It's about an alien's attempts to education a caveman. Unfortunately, things don't go so well as Prometheus has chosen the dumbest caveman on the planet (watch the first episode). Throughout the series, the alien becomes more and more frustrated at his failing efforts, but eventually, he learns to relax a little and have fun with his big, silly friend. Oh, and there's a monkey, too. The monkey relishes in Prometheus's failure, but after a while, he begins to sympathize with him and it becomes a group effort to try and teach Bob some basic life skills.

And all this from a series of 3 minute animations. Seriously, check it out. This is the very definition of a well designed idea.

Now even your bum can enjoy good design.


Only available in some European nations, designer toilet paper and paper towels have arrived. A far cry from the pastel flowers you'll find on the most decorated Charmin roll, these things sport bright colors and wacky designs far too racy for some American homes. Darning enough to subject your bum to revolutionary tp? Can you read german? If so, order yourself a few packs and let us know how it works out for you: Edet

Making the Workplace More Awesomer



Wouldn't it be lovely to work in a capsule in the woods? The answer is yes, and Selgas Cano is proving it. Found on Arch Daily, this unique work environment is something I'm sure we can all be jealous of. So futuristic, yet so natural, this place boggles the mind. 


My only question? Where's the bathroom?
