If a night of boozing has inflicted your wang with the unfortunate condition known as “Whiskey Dick”, this lube from Epic Meal Time will probably be of no assistance whatsoever. However, it will afford your now disappointed conquest the ability to sample the cask-aged flavor of southern whiskey off of your flaccid shaft while you drunkenly hope that everything is forgotten by morning.

Prepare to witness the most convoluted way to shake a cocktail.
This cocktail shaking machine is based on a turn-of-the-century machine called an “Imperial Shaker,” and was built as part of The Touring Pop-up Sideshow Saloon event organized by the Peerless Prodigies of P.T. Barnum. Technically, this machine uses a flywheel driven by a hand-crank, which pushes a ‘crank-slider,’ or pivoting piston. At the end of the crank-slider is a carriage where two cocktail shakers live. The elliptical motion produced by the crank-slider lends itself to mixing cocktails, where a simple up/down motion would not stir the ingredients as much.

Star Trek II is currently being filmed in the wilds of Northern California. Filming a movie is hard work, so Chris Pine (Kirk), Simon Pegg (Scotty), Zachary Quinto (Spock), and Benedict Cumberbatch (villain TBA) took a night to go to the local Hooters. We know this because those of that group who have Twitter accounts all tweeted about it, bless them. With pictures, double bless them.
The pics and tweets show the group hanging, drinking, in the car, and eating breakfast the morning after. It makes me happy.
See a few of the tweets after the break.
A new spray called “Wahh Quantum Sensations” promises to get users instantly drunk for mere seconds when sprayed into the mouth, thanks to its 0.075ml alcohol content and aerosol effect.
With a typical drink containing 40 to 60ml of alcohol, the scientists say it would take a thousand sprays to get the equivalent amount of alcohol into your system. Unveiling the spray in Paris yesterday, Starck said: ‘The question is how to do good without doing harm. Wahh is an alternative that offers the idea of intoxication without its adverse effects.’
The product is about to go on sale in Europe for 20 Euros, with each capsule offering 21 “shots”. Additional distribution plans have yet to be announced.

If you travel first class on Virgin Atlantic, you can now use Richard Branson’s head to cool your drinks. The company apparently found the introduction of “Little Richard ice cubes” to be something that will draw people to their airline, and released a statement which said:
The new ice innovation means all passengers will be able to enjoy some chill out time with Mr Branson at the new bar – the longest of any airline – which has been designed to provide additional space and comfort for those keen to socialise while flying…The ice cubes have been created using the exact measurements of Sir Richard’s head and feature an impressive level of detail. The mould for the ice cubes took a team of four skilled designers a painstaking six weeks to create using detailed photographic techniques and laser scanning technology to create the perfect likeness of Sir Richard.
Since I don’t know how to reply to this insanity, I’ll close by stating that the cubes will be served on board one of the first flights of the airline’s new Upper Class Cabin this month.

Sunday nights currently boast two of the best television shows currently airing: Game of Thrones and Mad Men. For taking place in completely different worlds, they have more than a couple of things in common. Neither show is overly respectful towards women, both shows have a fair amount of sex, and both shows have even more drinking.
Vulture wondered which series had the most drinks so far this season. They’ve paid close attention and tallied the number of sips of booze in a video that will make you forget about the drinking games you have scheduled for the next episodes.
Watch the scores go up and up in the video after the break.
