Years ago, a pedophile posted photos online with his face swirled, but police were able to unswirl it:

I have no idea who the guy in this photo is.

A large coke from McDonald's has 290 calories of sugar.

Maybe this will unintentionally help a bit with America's obesity problem.

I would like to be able to take compiled machine code and generate human-readable source code.

Imagine being able to fully understand and even modify all closed-source, commercial software.

I spent 30+ years thinking that a pony was a baby horse rather than a smaller type of horse. You know how cats have kittens and dogs have puppies? Well I thought horses had ponies.

Even all the times that Lisa Simpson wanted a pony, I just thought it was similar to how a kid might want a puppy.

Papa John's CEO John Schnatter said he plans on passing the costs of health care reform to his business onto his workers.

Yes, it's profitable. They lose money on each sale, but make up for it in volume.

The show Top Gear did a bunch of these. For example:

My guess is it's either from that show or something similar.
