Tjalf Sparnaay is a Netherlands-born, London-based artist whose oil paintings are ridiculously hyper-realistic. When I first saw these images I assumed they were photographs. Sparnaay is an expert at taking everyday, throwaway items such as discarded Cola cans and a bag of chips, removing the items from their environment, and turning them into textured works of art, no shadow, wrinkle or crevice overlooked. Sparnaay calls his style “Mega-Realism.” More about the artist here.
ED: PLEASE WATCH THIS. This video below about Gordan Ramsay eating shark’s fin for the first time and how they are slaughtered may ruin you for the rest of your life for shark’s fin. As living things, they are creatures with feelings and senses like you and I, aware to every inch of blade slicing through them, and every fin lost. It is as good as a comparison to severing a lion’s limbs and dumping it on an open field to bleed and be eaten alive by scavengers. As such majestic creatures I really feel sharks do not deserve such an inglorious death. After watching it, I really hope you’ll puke, and hope even more so you’ll join the campaign to STOP EATING SHARK’S FIN. Remember, when the buying stops, the killing will too.
ED: After hearing a lot of “Hoo Ha” about Chili’s I just just gotta get me some. It was my birthday so I thought it would be a perfect time to try this place out and apparently they’re famous for their ribs and burgers!
Meat = Happiness Birthday = Happiness Chili’s = Meat & Therefore Birthday = Chili’s
Totally makes sense.

ED: Imagine a zero calorie way to enjoy French fries- smear a french fry lip balm version all over your lips and keep the smell right under your nose. That way you can have french fries as and when you like, without actually harming your waistline. Genius! It’s just like a drive-thru for your lips. Impossible you say?
