Now, take that thickness and divide it in hal ...

Why People Still Prefer Visual Infographics Over Text [Infographic]
Just yesterday I wrote an article about how cats and bacon still rule the Internet.

The Reasons Why Kittens And Bacon Still Go Viral Online [Infographic]
I realized how popular kittens and bacon were online back in 2009. They weren't only popular on social media, but on the Internet overall.

The Mercedes Engine That Was Completely Rebuilt From Odd Materials
I've always liked the Mercedes brand, but I've never seen anything like this before. If you are into car engines, this one will be unlike any engine you've ever seen before.

Scientist From NASA Makes The Aurora Borealis In A Big Glass Jar
I thought it was interesting to learn the origin of the words 'Aurora Borealis' today. The Roman goddess of dawn is named Aurora, and the Greek name for the north wind is Boreas.

Cuddling is great, but it is damn sure uncomfortable sometimes. I'm not going to lie, I would enjoy cuddling a lot more if I didn't feel like I had to pretzel my body just to make it work.
