The next time you see a vehicle that has a “free car” sign on it with the keys in it, maybe you should think twice before just driving it off. Or at the very least, maybe check the trunk first. This is a valuable lesson that two men in Mississippi learned earlier this week when the “free car” they acquired turned out to have a dead body in the trunk. While the men who found the car have not been named, the victim has been identified as Anthony Mccrillis. The car was found in the city of Byram and driven…

Cooking is hard. Some people may argue against this point but to many of us, that doesn’t change the fact that cooking is indeed hard. If you’re like me, you may have problems with even something simple like toast. What happens if your toast doesn’t come out right and you wish it could be just regular bread again? Until today, your options were limited. Now though, you can bring your bread back to life with a toaster that untoasts your bread. The YouTube channel Joel Creates posted a video last month that really deserves more attention than what it’s getting,…

Few actors can claim to have the extreme highs and lows in their career like Eddie Murphy has. A string of hits in the ’80s like “48 Hours,” and “Beverly Hills Cop” alongside his run on “Saturday Night Live” turned him into one of the biggest stars on the planet. But then there’s “The Adventures of Pluto Nash” and “Meet Dave” and “A Thousand Words.” Things have become substantially better for Murphy in the last few years, and Amazon is trying to capitalize on that with a deal that will land them three films with the actor alongside a first-look…

Back in 2018, Nintendo announced that it was partnering with Illumination to bring a “Super Mario Bros.” animated movie to the big screen. Since then, the project hasn’t received much of a public update, until today, September 23rd, 2021. During Nintendo’s Direct presentation, Mario mastermind Shigeru Miyamoto stopped by to announce the movie’s principle voice cast, alongside when to expect the film to hit theaters. The elephant in the room, so to say, when it comes to the cast, is the hiring of Chris Pratt for the role of Mario. Despite his initial surge in popularity from portraying Star Lord…

Teenage sex comedies have historically featured teenagers doing dumb thinks with their penises. The movie “Porky’s” has an infamous scene where the character of Tommy sticks his member through a peephole in the girl’s locker room. “American Pie” has the equally infamous scene involving insertion into an apple pie. But what if, instead of someone putting their penis into something, they put something into their penis? Well, then you’d get the situation a 15-year old found themselves in when they got a USB cable stuck inside their urethra. We do want to caution all readers, PLEASE DON’T DO THIS, ok?…

Being a fan of pinball in this modern time isn’t easy; we’re a far cry away from the mid to late 80s and early to mid 90s where pinball underwent something of a renaissance. Before “Pin-Bot,” it was a languishing past-time. After the hype of “Medieval Madness,” and the rise of home consoles such as the PlayStation and Nintendo 64, pinball faded back into obscurity. As died the arcade, so too died pinball. But even though big name developers like Williams, Bally, and Gottlieb fell by the wayside, development of tables never officially stopped largely thanks to a company named…

It is unbelievably crushing to know that Norm MacDonald is no longer with us. At only 61 years old and still ferociously funny, he had a lot to give the world with his brilliantly comedic mind. When I say brilliant, I mean it in a way that I don’t think a lot of people give him credit for; Norm was incredibly well-read and intelligent, despite what his sense of humor may have led you to believe. In 2000, Norm basically won the million dollar prize on “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire” until host Regis Philbin talked him out of…

Reuben Klamer, successful inventor and prop designer has sadly reached the end of his life on September 14th, 2021. In his 99 years on this planet, he would develop games and devices which would end up contributing greatly to popular culture. Chief among these things were a toy version of the gun from “The Man From U.N.C.L.E.,” the phaser rifle from the original run of “Star Trek,” and the modernized version of the classic board game, The Game of Life. The original version of The Game of Life dates back to 1860 and was developed by Milton Bradley. I mean…

Have we mentioned how much we love “Frasier” here at Nerdbot? I mean, yes, I already know the answer to that considering I mention it every time I write something about Kelsey Grammer and/or the upcoming “Frasier” revival. Maybe it’s because I’ve watched the series from start to finish over 30 times; or maybe it’s because I host a “Frasier” podcast that reviews every single episode, all of which are available on Paramount+. I’m currently in tail-end of season 7, but I can connect almost anything to the beloved sitcom. Including, no joke, the idea of being able to tell…

It takes a jerk to try and sell someone something they don’t need. It takes a special kind of jerk to take advantage of a person’s lack of knowledge on a subject to sell them something they don’t need. And it takes a downright evil person to know that someone is old and suffering from dementia and still try to sell them for something that’s worth thousands of dollars more than what they actually need to have. But that kind of evil exists in this world, and there’s video footage from the United Kingdom to prove it. Before we get…
