The 15 Most Insane 'Epic Meal Time' Episodes of All Time

0
0


If you've never seen Epic Meal Time before, get ready to be disappointed with every other meal you eat for the rest of your life. The highly popular online cooking show prides itself on creating meals with so many calories, that it would kill most medium-size animals, while using the most fantastic ingredients in the most unusual ways. Here's a look at 15 of their most insane videos to date. I wouldn't suggest watching while you're hungry.

15. Epic Christmas Carol
Why You Should Watch: It's a giant snowman filled with booze, bacon, Rice Krispies and chocolate chips. Also, the story of Harley encountering three ghosts in the form of "A Christmas Carol" is pretty great.


14. Ultimate Pizza Sandwich
# of Calories: 45,133
Why You Should Watch It: They took a bunch of pizzas and pizza pouches then crammed them into a giant pocket. If that wasn't enough, they made another exact same pocket, put all the filling in between the two, and made an amazing pizza sandwich.


13. Dishwasher Lasagna
# of Calories: 18,144
Why You Should Watch It: This one really took cooking to another level, as the gang cooked food in a dishwasher, made a breakfast sandwich on an iron and used a coffee pot to make macaroni and cheese.

12. Meatzza
# of Calories: 65,312
Why You Should Watch It: Pizza with a crust made of sausage and a ground beef base covered in layers of cheese, bacon, pepperoni and meat sauce? I'll take one, please.


11. Hella Tella Chili
# of Calories: 104,870
Why You Should Watch It: You have never witnessed a cinnamon bun like this in your life. I don't even want to try to describe everything that goes into this because you need to see it for yourself. Just know there's a lot of Nutella.


10. 50-lb. Grilled Cheese Sandwich
# of Calories: 68,128
Why You Should Watch It: This isn't your average 50-pound grilled cheese sandwich. It's stuffed with 40 double cheeseburgers from McDonald's as well as pounds of bacon. You know, the same way your grandma used to make them.

9. Breakfast of Booze
# of Calories: 18,531
Why You Should Watch It: They took all of the normal breakfast foods and drenched them in Jack Daniels sauce after each was wrapped in bacon. If breakfast was like this every morning, I would be up daily at 6 a.m.


8. Epic Eggroll
Why You Should Watch It: You won't have to worry about being hungry in an hour after this Chinese dish. The guys took basically every dish from a Chinese restaurant, wrapped in a giant egg roll, and deep fried it. Just wait until you see the fortune cookie at the end.


7. 84 Egg Sandwich
# of Calories: 48,138
Why You Should Watch It: The meal is amazing, but my favorite part of the episode is watching Harley try to convince the lady at the McDonald's drive-thru that he seriously wants 90 McMuffins.

6. 100-lb. Chocolate Bar
# of Calories: 167,087
Why You Should Watch It: If you're diabetic, I'm fairly certain watching this will kill you. The amount of chocolate bars combined together into one magical treat is the thing dentists dream of the most.


5. Turbaconepi-Centipede
# of Calories: 802,420
Why You Should Watch It: That is not a typo. The "Epic Meal Time" version of "The Human Centipede" packs in an astounding 802,420 calories. Just to put that into perspective, a 5'10 175-lb. male in his mid-20s should take in around 2900 calories per day.


4. Fast Food Sushi
# of Calories: 11,816
Why You Should Watch It: They took all of your favorite fast food items and sauces, combined with a bunch of bacon and made it into the most untraditional type of sushi you've ever witnessed.

3. Candy Pizza
Why You Should Watch It: "Epic Meal Time" is known for whipping up large amounts of candied bacon, but this may be the best use of it yet. There's also a ridiculous amount of deep-fried candy bars, which will satisfy the inner fat kid in all of us.


2. Chili Four Loko
# of Calories: 46,255
Why You Should Watch It: Ah, the good old days. Back when the Four Loko flowed like rivers of deadly water. The guys made a ridiculous chili which was served in a trough made of, you guessed it, bacon.


1. Fast Food Lasagna
# of Calories: 71,488
Why You Should Watch It: This may be the pinnacle of "Epic Meal Time." They took 45 burgers from multiple fast food restaurants and made them into a giant lasagna. If you'd like to make one of your own, "Epic Meal Time" now has a show called "Handle It" where they show you how to re-create their meals, including the Fast Food Lasagna.

Super Bowl Players With Pixie Haircuts

While this week has been dominated by the Super Bowl, the last few weeks have been dominated by movie awards season. Many different films have taken home awards, but only one haircut has swept the red carpet: the pixie haircut. Thanks to Jennifer Lawrence, Anne Hathaway, Michelle Williams and a host of other young Hollywood starlets, the pixie cut is the only way to wear your hair right now. Which is why we thought it'd be interesting to look at what all of the key players in the Super Bowl would look like with pixie cuts.

The Funniest GIFs of the Week


Porn Star Christy Mack's Lego Contest With Blow Job Reward Has Been Canceled

And scumbag lawyers are to blame.

Adult film actress Christy Mack dropped a sexy bomb on Twitter last week, announcing via tweet: "Whoever builds me the best Lego creation to put in my house gets a blow job."
christy mack, christy mack twitter
Needless to say, this challenge excited many of Christy's fans, and within hours she was receiving countless photos of Lego creations from guys hoping to win the coveted reward. The fellas at Barstool Sports even made a Lego delivery to the award-winning porn star in hopes of winning the contest early, but to no avail.

However, like all things that seem too good to be true, it was - but Ms. Mack is not to blame. Despite her commitment to the contest, the lawyers at Lego have made her put an end to it, protesting her adult-themed promotion of their beloved product. Christy thought they had other reasons for forcing her to call off the Lego blow job challenge, though, tweeting "The BJ competition is off due to lawyers not liking my Twitter content. I think it's because they didn't win the competition."

So for all you porn fans turned Lego enthusiasts, sorry about the disappointment. You can take solace in the fact that Christy Mack still left the door slightly open, though, tweeting out, "But I guess if people want to build something out of colorful, snap-together, painful to step on, 18+ 'toys' who am I to stop them? Lol." See, there is always hope.

Anna Kendrick's Spoof Super Bowl Ad About Being a Beer Commercial Babe is the Best

Anna Kendrick continues to warm our hearts and tickle our funny bones. Right on the heels of her encounter with Katy Perry at the Grammys comes this delightful Newcastle Brown Ale ad featuring Kendrick as their pseudo-spokeswoman, discussing her experience with the ale brand and the disappointment that came when they canceled her Super Bowl commercial gig. She may not be "beer commercial babe" hot, but she is definitely "hilarious YouTube video babe" hot.

Gamblin' With Gary: Super Bowl XLVIII Edition

I started this column about halfway through the college and NFL football seasons with a simple goal: help make you millions of dollars. It came about because I realized that I had a keen eye for sports betting, a true gift that I just had to share with the public. And after my very first bet came through, an UNDER in a Troy University football game, I was well on my way to achieving that goal.

If you joined me in the weeks that followed, you undoubtedly made boatloads of cash, as I finished with a 21-11-1 record (despite going 0 for 2 in NFL playoffs picks). And now, with "The Big Game" upon us, it is timrenee fleming, renee fleming operae once again to show you the way to gambling glory. These bets are 100 PERCENT GUARANTEED TO MAKE US ALL RICH, and I am willing to share them with you to prove it. I'm putting my money where my mouth is. Feel free to join me.

CAN'T LOSE BET #1

How long it will take Renee Fleming to sing the National Anthem - OVER 2 minutes 25 seconds

Every year I bet on this prop, and every year it is the most exciting 2-3 minutes of the entire Super Bowl experience. When Christina Aguilera rushed through it and flubbed the words in 2011, it was still nearly two minutes long. When Beyonce sang it in 2004 with orchestra accompaniment, it was around 2:09. Well, guess what? Renee Fleming is a professional opera singer who holds notes longer than Bleeding Gums Murphy. And since the bet includes the time it takes her to complete the final "Brave," which could be a minute long on its own, it would be wise to bet big on the over.

CAN'T LOSE BET #2Seattle Seahawks v Denver Broncos, nfl coin toss

Coin Toss - TAILS

This one is easy: tails never fails. OK, that's a lie; it has actually failed the last five Super Bowls and 6 of the last 7. I love betting against trends, though, and this is the best one to buck. Tails is due.

CAN'T LOSE BET #3

Will any member of the Red Hot Chili Peppers be shirtless during their performance? YES

Wishful thinking might be coming into play here (those dudes are hunks), but I actually have a solid reason for placing this bet. On the Kevin & Bean radio show, Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith was recently interviewed and asked about the band's wardrobe. He made a few jokes about it being cold, but basically scoffed at the idea that the band would be wearing anything out of the ordinary. And ordinary for Anthony Kiedis and the boys is sans clothing. I don't expect them to go socks over cocks like the old days on Fox, but they have to be at least a little rock 'n' roll, and shirtless is the way to go.


CAN'T LOSE BET #4

Total receptions for Percy Harvin - UNDER 4

Yes, Percy HarvSaints Seahawks Football, percy harvin injuredin is a game-changer. The problem is he can't change games very often because he is constantly hurt. He returned from a hip injury in the playoffs only to get knocked out with a concussion in the divisional round against the Saints. He is reportedly ready to go for Sunday, though, and practiced in full on Wednesday. However, the Seahawks won without him against the 49ers, and you have to expect him to have a low snap count in the Super Bowl. My prediction is that he is used primarily as a decoy to give Marshawn more room to run and take some coverage away from Seattle's other receivers. Percy might make a big play if the Broncos fall asleep, but don't expect much more than that.

CAN'T LOSE BET #5

Seattle (+3) vs. Denver - Seattle +3
AFC Championship - New England Patriots v Denver Broncos, petyon manning
The spread has mostly been at Seattle +2.5 or +2 all week, but if you go to Bovada right now and pay a little extra juice (-120), you can grab the Seahawks as a field goal underdog. This is money in the bank. I can list all the advantages that Seattle has over Denver in this game (including the fact that they actually opened as favorites over the Broncos before a bunch of fools jumped on Denver's bandwagon), but you have probably heard them all already. All you need to really know is this: Denver has decided to wear their orange jerseys. The last time they did that in the Super Bowl, they lost 55-10 to the 49ers. This remains the most lopsided loss in Super Bowl history. They also wore orange in the Super Bowl two years before that and lost to the Redskins 42-10. When the Broncos actually won their Super Bowls against the Packers and Falcons, they wore blue and white respectively. So why would they tempt fate and don the ugly orange again? Some claim it's because it will give them a slight visibility advantage in case there is snow, but I think it's just because they're stupid. I fully believe the Seahawks are going to win this game, but feel free to take the points just in case.

BONUS CAN'T LOSE BET

Super Bowl XLVIII MVP - Marshawn Lynch (15/4 odds)

That's right, boss. When the Seahawks win the Super Bowl, it will be because their stud running back was "just 'bout that action" and went Beast Mode all over the Broncos defense. Lynch has rushed for over 100 yards in four of six career postseason games (including the last two), and Denver is about to be the next victim. At a little more than 3 to 1 odds, you'd be a fool to not drop at least one paycheck on Marshawn for MVP, and make it rain Skittles at your Super Bowl party when you cash in.

The Worst and Weirdest Superhero Origins


How to Torment Your Friends in iMessage

Furious male student looking at his phone

The best thing about iMessage is that it eliminates the concern that one of your messages didn't go through, as you immediately get a delivery notification. You also don't have to sit there staring at your phone wondering if it was read and when the person on the other end is going to respond. Thanks to a handy little animation, you are aware of when someone is typing a message back to you.

That's where this great prank comes in.

A twitter user named Matthew Panzarino tweeted a link to a few simple steps that will absolutely drive your friends crazy. Basically, someone created an animated gif that looks exactly like the incoming text graphic in iMessage:



All you have to do is download the image onto your phone and send it to anyone with an iPhone. You can do it mid conversation or just as a text out of nowhere. They'll get an alert, but it will look like you're still typing. If your friends are anything like me, they'll stare at the image for a good 5-10 minutes before realizing something isn't right.

I tried it on a few of my friends recently and one of them spent the next hour on Apple forums trying to figure out what was wrong with her phone. I felt a little bad for that one, so if you want to let them in on the prank before it gets to that point, I don't blame you.

You can download the image here. If you pull this off on your friends and they start freaking out, please take a screenshot of it and share it with us.
