The entire Jackass crew should make clones of their junk with Clone a Willy kits, and hijinks can run wild. We can have contests where people have to feel everyone's junk, then identify their "clone". Or even try to guess the clone prior to feeling. Or we can just smack people with them. And at the end of the prank, we can auction the dildos for charity, or to pay for more beer. PS, I got 20 bucks saying Wee-Man isn't the smallest
From Jalopnik: The LOLrioKart is outfitted with..."a hundred pounds of Ni-Cad batteries in the lower tray, a crude steering rack up front, pneumatic tires all around and some power-electronics to control a 15 HP Etek pancake motor hooked to a sweet custom differential at the rear all good for a top speed of 35 MPH."

Nap for too long and you often wake up feeling even worse than before, and it could be hours before you finally feel fully awake. Australian researchers conducted a study that back up this idea. They found that not only is a very short nap perfectly fine for recharging your brain, but that longer sleep sessions can cause a period of impaired alert...
