This comfort fooderie offers 11 variants of its namesake (Chocolate, Carrot Cake, Sticky Bun, the party-in-your-mouth Gluten Free...) along with diner fare like 3-cheese mac and a meatloaf sandwich. The spot's open 22hrs on weekends, shutting its doors only between 4-6am, a.k.a. "The Eggo Hours".

Based in LA, and influenced by antiquity, these oversized, multi-dialed (humidity, lunar position...) watches range from a stainless steel race model to the red-faced "Last Emperor", whose Chinese lettering translates to "considering China holds most of America's debt, you should not have bought this watch".

For this Alaskan-themed, boozy race, teams of three costumed dogs (you and your friends) push a sled (shopping cart) to watering holes (bars), all the while avoiding obstacles which will cause your vehicle to flop (Cuba Gooding, Jr).

Just because you're mired in traffic doesn't mean you're not entitled a toasty pressed sandwich, cooked with power from your cigarette lighter. Also makes for a melty, delicious "Thank You Panini" for the paramedics who arrive to treat you for the inevitable In-Dash Fry Daddy burns.

Every time you click the "Pitch" button, you get a different high-concept, brilliant idea, complete with stars and genre. Not all the results are that implausible: Dame Judy Dench actually was in a show about a black alcoholic superhero, but it aired in Britain, and nobody cared.
