A model with a slow Internet connection.

(I <3 request)

He looks almost exactly like my little brother. Scary. The eyes, lips, skin color, and face shape is identical, except for the nose.

Triple Malt Chocolate Cake

INGREDIENTS

2 cups malted milk powder

1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour

3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1 teaspoon kosher salt

3/4 teaspoons baking soda

3 large eggs

1 1/3 cups granulated sugar

2/3 cup vegetable oil

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 1/3 cups whole milk

Vanilla Malt Frosting

1 cup malted milk balls, coarsely chopped

INSTRUCTIONS

Heat the oven to 325°F and arrange the rack in the middle. Coat 2 (8-inch) cake pans with oil and flour, and tap out any excess flour. Set aside.

Combine malted milk powder, flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking soda in a large bowl, and whisk to aerate and break up any lumps. Set aside.

Combine eggs, sugar, oil, and vanilla in a separate large bowl, and whisk until combined and smooth. Add 1/3 of the flour mixture, and whisk until just incorporated. Add 1/2 of the milk, and whisk until smooth. Continue with remaining flour mixture and milk, alternating between each and whisking until all ingredients are just incorporated and smooth.

Divide batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean and the cakes start pulling away from the sides of the pans, about 45 to 50 minutes.

Remove cakes from the oven and transfer to a wire rack to cool, about 15 minutes. Run a knife around the perimeter of each, and turn cakes out onto the rack to cool completely.

To frost, place a cake layer on an 8-inch cardboard round, a tart-pan bottom, or a cake plate. Evenly spread about 1/3 of the frosting over the top of the layer. Stack the second layer, and evenly spread another 1/3 of the frosting over the top and sides of the whole cake. (Don’t worry about looks at this point—this is just a basecoat, a.k.a. a crumb layer, and it will be covered up later.) Place in the refrigerator until frosting is set up and slightly hard, about 15 minutes. Remove from the refrigerator and spread remaining frosting over the top and sides of the cake, ensuring it’s as even as possible. Press malt balls into the frosting around the sides of the cake and serve.

God I love malt and chocolate and ice cream and whipped cream - I love all of it!

Talking with Chamillionaire at the Techcrunch party. SERIOUSLY!

He’s one of the most intelligent, unbelievably tech savvy people I’ve ever met. Really, really impressive.

I bet he was really well spoken too, right Julia? I love his look of “who the fuck is this crazy white bitch?”

Is she racist? Her ignorant comments set white people back 20 years.

“Maria von Trapp, 93, daughter of Austrian Baron Georg von Trapp, points to her father on an old family picture after a press conference at the Villa Trapp, Friday, July 25, 2008 in Salzburg, Austria. Maria is in the house for the first time since her family fled the Nazi regime to the United States in late 1938. The original von Trapp family home was reopened as a hotel on Friday to give guests the chance to lay their head to rest where the von Trapp family once lived, get married in the house’s chapel or have a Sound of Music dinner in the family dining room.”

Girls who steadfastly denounce penises as ugly or gross seem to me the type that cannot orgasm during sex. I consider them counterparts to the boys who can’t handle a bit of bush on their partners. All those fools deserve each other. Note my deliberate avoidance of the words women or men.

Thank you. I appreciate this pic.

Don’t care what you think, this is hilarious.

Reminds me vaguely of that SNL skit with Will Ferrell where he plays Harry Carey. “If you were a hotdog in the desert would you eat yourself? I would.”
