Default FOD's THREAD OF AWESOME

saw this on another forum, a single thread thats updated with information about stuff thats truly awesome



and no im not talkin about stuff like a cat riding a bicycle or anything dumb like that



stuff that literally makes you stop and say hey thats great



please no religious or political talk here just simple "wow"



now awesome can be when someone does something stupidly awesome like this:



http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/0...ref=weird-news



or when someone does something thats selflessly awesome like this:





THE OATMEAL IS HELPING BUILD A GODDAMN TESLA MUSEUM



yes, a internet comic pooled together to help fund the building of a tesla museum (at this point they just have enough money to prevent the land that tesla's original lab from being bought, chopped up, and sold)

Found this embedded in the monkey story:

A TRUE MANS MAN







Also, what if everyone on the planet decided to jump all at the same time?

The thread of awesome would be more awesome if the title would have been left with a spelling mistake. lol.



This is awesome, I've seen 5 derbies in the past month alone and was at this one with my wife and 3 year old son (who now wears his helmet everywhere he goes and crashes his fisher price trike into everything in sight while making "vroom vroom" noises).
