Cats have taken over the internet for many years. Malaysian mobile network operator Digi realises that too and joins the bandwagon with a clever YouTube video ad.
I have been using their package for a couple of years now. Their pricing is decent but the coverage at my residential area is pretty bad. I may have to switch to other carriers if they don’t improve soon.
Pepperoni pizza in English sandwich style, by Domino’s Pizza UK. Not sure if it’s real, not in the menu and its teaser tells nothing much. Looks cute dough though.
Update – They removed the clip, I couldn’t find a new one. I just can’t understand this Japanese corporate practise – they often delete videos from their official channels for no good reason. I get that sometimes they have to remove celebrity endorsements that expired but this is not the case.
The original post is about a cool commercial by Japanese beverage company Kirin. It’s a stop motion animation featuring a miniature kitchen in a plastic bottle like in the image below. The video’s message is that Kirin make their drinks with traditional care and also a bit of modern touch.

Video of Matt Stonie vs Joey Chestnut in the 2014 Niko Niko’s World Gyro Eating Championship at Houston Greek Festival on May 18.
Stonie won the competition with a world record of 24 gyros in 10 minutes. Looks like Chestnut finally has a serious challenger after years of dominance (in the Major League Eating). It’s a pity that he and Takeru Kobayashi couldn’t have more official battles because of the later’s refusal to join the MLE.
