Epic Win: Underoos

Nov. 13, 2009

Once Upon A Win

Submitted by K Mack, underwear model

Here’s a novel idea: underwear that makes you feel like a superhero in bed. That came out wrong.

Wikipedia has a list of all the styles, ranging from DC and Marvel comic book heroes to Star Wars to Ms. Pacman.

Epic Win: Twin Pop Popsicles

Nov. 13, 2009

twin-pop-popsicles

Submitted and Written by Sarah K, who likes to share

Not much to be said, but these were central to every one of my childhood summers. Sometimes my neighbour would keep a whole one to herself, rather than breaking it in half and sharing, and I thought she was horrible for that. ;)

Anybody see the episode of Mad Men where Peggy comes up with an ad campaign for popsicles?

Epic Win: Bop It

Nov. 12, 2009

Once Upon A Win

Submitted by M Henson, twist it

A long time ago, I sent Hasbro my idea for a variation of Bop It. It was called **** It. It was similar to Bop It, only instead of bopping, you would have to do things like **** it, **** it, **** ******* it with your ****, and ********* **** ** ******* ********* apple sauce ***** ****** ** *****ing ***** it. I still haven’t heard back.

Epic Win: Maurice Sendak

Nov. 11, 2009

Once Upon A Win

Submitted by Johnny’s Girl, not to be confused with Jessie’s girl

Maurice Sendak, best known for the classic children’s book Where the Wild Things Are, said, as a child, he was inspired to become a writer and illustrator by Disney’s Fantasia. (Fantasia only inspired me to do drugs.) Though he’s most famous for Wild Things Are, Maurice Sendak was also the illustrator for the Little Bear series.

Have you guys seen the new Where the Wild Things Are film yet? It’s fantastic. When asked if the movie is too scary for kids, Sendak told parents that they could “go to hell.” Win.

Epic Win: Calculator Watches

Nov. 11, 2009

Submitted by Bobby H, who did not actually say any of the things below

Tony D: Hey Bobby H, did you just get a new watch?

Bobby H: I did. It’s a calculator watch.

Tony D: What’s that?

Bobby H: It’s a watch that’s also a calculator.

Tony D: A calculator and a watch in one? That’s awesome.

Bobby H: That’s right. It is awesome. Just give me a couple of numbers and I can add them together.

Tony D: Okay, 238 plus 459.

Bobby H: Alright, let… me… just… punch that… in—

Tony D: 697. Just figured it out in my head.

Bobby H: Oh. Well, I just — oh, there it is. 697. Anyway, give me some more numbers to add.

Tony D: 912 plus 56 plus 108.

Bobby H: Oh, three numbers. Okay. Well, let’s see…

Tony D: 1076. Damn. I’m pretty good at math.

Bobby H: Yeah, yeah. Whatever.

Tony D: What time is it?

Bobby H: What?

Tony D: What TIME is it?

Bobby H: Oh, I don’t know. This doesn’t tell time.

Tony D: Oh… are sure?

Bobby H: No. I just don’t know how to get to the clock feature.

Tony D: So it’s really a calculator that’s hard to use.

Bobby H: Basically.
