33-year old Canadian Woody “Wood” Sticksandbranches is making himself a Lamborghini. The vehicle is built on top of a $60 Pontiac Fiero chassis and promises to be one hell of a good looking ride. Nice work Loggy, I can’t wait to see the finished product. Maybe you could take me for a spin sometime. But no funny business — I don’t care if you do drive a Lamborghini look-alike. Just kidding, I’m cool with a little hand action.

Art graduate Lauren Porter knitted herself a Ferrari for her honors degree at Bath Spa University. Ananova reports:

The classic red bodywork consists of 250 squares of garter stitch made by Lauren and 20 family members and friends. The windows are V-shaped stocking stitch, while the details are crochet and the badge is embroidered. It’s all supported by a steel frame which Lauren, 22, of Greatham, Hants, welded herself.

I don’t know what Bath Spa University is, but if they take a knitted Ferrari as a final project then they’re okay in my book.

NOTE: If you want to be taken seriously as a university, nothing says “we’re credible” like naming yourselves Bath Spa University.

The Hamburger bed (which is actually a cheeseburger) is a round bed that looks like a hamburger and has a Facebook fan page. I was going to become a fan, but decided I’d probably end up stalking that delicious bitch and that would bad. So, instead, I’m going to make my own taco bed.

UPDATE: So I had this weird dream about being a giant last night and, f***, I think I ate my pillows.

Erwin Wurm is the artist responsible for making this series of ‘fat cars’. Similarly, Ronald McDonald, Wendy and The Burger King are the artists responsible for making my series of ‘fat ex-girlfriends’.
