Tech Nerd Reenacts "Three Little Pigs" with Giant Fart Ring Machine

Posted by Wm.™ Steven Humphrey on Fri, Jul 31, 2009 at 10:55 AM

Get a load of the nerd! Okay, I agree this is moderately—MODERATELY—cool… but c'mon. He either needs to find a girlfriend, or raise some money on the internet to buy one.

No, I'm sorry, that's actually much more than moderately cool. That's super fucking cool. IMHO.

This is the next generation of "non-lethal" crowd-control technology.

And all you got to say is "needs to find a girlfriend?"

Yeah, Wm. (tm) Steven Hump-me, that guy has a bigger cannon and quite possibly might have a sweeter honeybaked ham than you do. You're clearly suffering from a severe case of cannon envy.

That was completely fucking awesome.

Way to promote a stereotype, asshole.
Nerds can have girlfriends. We can even get married! SURPRISE! WE PROCREATE!
Fuck you, dude.

Not to quibble with the adorable nerd, but I don't bellieve it's that hard to knock over a wall of bricks with no mortar. I could totally push that over. Nice nerd device, though.

Very cool how it takes just a circular chunk, shaped like the fart ring, out of the top of the brick "house"...

People who make fun of nerds are morons.

That guy needs to join mythbusters.

I'd go out with him. Although I'd like to see the device work on an actually mortared brick house, not a wall of stacked bricks. Still really neat.

Surprised noone's mentioned this, but I'm pretty sure this is from the British show "Top Gear" and the "Nerd" there Richard Hammond, one of a few presenters who present more than "Fart Guns" such as Drag-Racing Supercars, to blowing up cars with rocket launchers.

Oh, and he's married with children. Sorry, gerds!

* gerd = Gay Nerd

He's totally adorable.
And he has a cool fucking job.

Posted by tuesday harmony on July 31, 2009 at 8:17 PM

Sorry #14, that's not Richard Hammond. Top Gear is a show about cars, not science. Also, that guy is easily a foot taller than Hamster.

The man in the video is Jem Stansfield and it's a clip from Bang Goes the Theory. http://www.bbc.co.uk/bang/the_team/

He is not even a nerd. He's simply bright, intelligent, quick witted, cute- and I bet he has a sweet bod.

Posted by NumberOne on August 2, 2009 at 10:08 AM

I love nerds! He is HOT! And his nerdiness makes him WAY HOTTER!

That's Jem Stansfield - super cool, super cute nerdy boy from Planet Mechanics (among other nerd-friendly BBC shows)... And he builds cool contraptions for a living. I'm completely and totally enamored with him.
