Cracked Round-Up: Special Weekend Edition!

Technically, every Cracked Round-Up is a 'weekend edition', but we'll distinguish this one by charging twice as much and offering it in an exciting new color; paisley.

NATURE

6 Modern Technologies Animals Invented Millions of Years Ago. It kind of sucks that all Mother Nature gave us were these stupid giant brains and opposable thumbs.

Notable Comment:Wasman sings a song of woe, "Suicide bombing ants sounded like a threat to freedom, so i went out side and punched an anthill shouting 'usa usa' over and over. then i came back in, saw that the suicide bombing ants are in malasia, and then i felt really bad cause i had started another pointless world for America. i can still hear the screams..."

BULLSHIT

7 High Tech Products And Their Cheap Ass Ingredients Everything is a rip-off.

Notable Comment: "I have been rubbing wax on my head for over 40 years, and she (my wife) loves it. She says it feels much better than a head without wax. I am so glad I was never Waxcircised when I was young." Honestly, RapRap, we have no idea what this means, but you can rest assured we're suitably terrified of you now.

CINEMA!

5 Things Movie Trailers Need to Stop Doing. We can make fun of them all we want, but at the end of the day these Hollywood executives get paid for their terrible decisions with more money than we'll ever see. Unless that film script we sent in gets picked up. Then it's good-bye Internet, hello 'CRACKED: The Motion Picture' (Starring Keanu Reeves).

Notable Comment: "plus, hollywood keeps f*****g around and putting mark wahlberg in movies. that needs to stop." BobbyD84 needs to start circulating a petition. We'll sign.

KABOOOOM

DEATHCLAW!

The 6 Most Badass Murder Weapons in the Animal Kingdom Whenever you start to feel like our species might be losing the evolutionary arms race, just Google 'chainsaw' plus 'Bruce Campbell', and you'll be reassured of the superiority of mankind.

Notable Comment: "Mantis shrimp are also the second fastest animal known to man, and they can see more colors than any other organism. They truly are a fascinating species that should be annihilated before they kill us all." Mothermagna realizes that sometimes genocide is the only way to be sure.

Death Ray Cabaret

The 'Say Vampire' Scene from 'Twilight': The Extended Cut. Better than the Movie.
