He's baaaackkkk. The proprietor of Jones' Big Ass Truck Rental and Storage has entered the food market with Jones' Good Ass BBQ & Foot Massage joint, which he announced with yet another amazing commercial. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPkMUU9tUqk&fmt=18]
I've said it before but I'm going to say it again: THANK YOU INTERNET.

An amusing spreadsheet shaped grill by Roma Voroneshski of Art. Lebedev Studio. NO BACON.
Like a real life Flight of the Conchords episode, this comedy duo of Rhett McLaughlin and Link Neal (even their names are sort of similar to the HBO show characters) musically order their food at a couple fast food drive thrus. The ending of the Taco Bell one, which they swear isn't scripted, is particularly awesome. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uwY3sjqYX0&fmt=18]

No. No. No. These bacon themed decks are the opposite of extreme. This belongs in the realm of quaint lazy brunches with your mother-in-law.
Someone needs to stop this bacon madness. When will the vegetarians and vegans of the world unite and end this meme? And what is that funny feeling in the pit of my stomach that can only be quelled by the consumption of salty and crispy pork goodness???

All you need is a kung fu grip of course. Someone try this and let me know how it goes. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-f_SWEie8o&fmt=18]

A 72 cake caravan at Jean Georges. How quaintly pre-recession. [Via] [vimeo=http://vimeo.com/4032046]
Oppositely, visit Cake Wrecks, a blog devoted to compiling professional cakes gone "horribly, hilariously wrong."
[Thanks Kaizar!]
The Chicago Tribune has a bright photo gallery depicting how yellow marshmallow peeps are made. I'm more of a Cadbury guy though.

New York Magazine's listing of 7 bars at which with some bar hopping among them, you will be able to solidly drink $1 beers from 11 am to 11 pm.
11 a.m.–5 p.m.: Singas Famous Pizza 176 Second Ave., at 11th St.; 212-253-7300 Good morning! In addition to dollar beers, this East Village pizza chain offers up individual square pizzas instead of the usual slices, meaning you can adequately prime your stomach for what's to come. Bud Light, Bud Heavy, and Coors are all $1; for high rollers, pitchers are $5.
Yayyyy beer.

Start your Friday morning right with this video featuring Minister Cleo Clariet and his then fiancé Katherine Lane singing a song about breakfast with "no mo' bacon, no mo' sausage" and even "no mo' Capt'n Crunch!" His fiance though looks like she's spacing out imagining eating all that food. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYqM9-Fj0Pg&fmt=18]
Apparently Clariet passed away in 2004, but thanks to the Internet and YouTube he'll forever live on with his song bemoaning a breakfast with no mo' food. I hope wherever he is he can eat all the breakfast to his spirit's content.

One German company's horribly misguided attempt to cash in on Obamamania. On the other hand, their discontinued Guantanamo line of TV dinners ("So good you'll want to be placed in solitary isolation with sensory deprivation!") were surprisingly delicious.

Seasonal restaurant Park Avenue (approximately every three months the menu and decor changes to match the four seasons) is offering free dinners and tequila shots from after 9:30 pm through March 20.
What's the catch? To celebrate the restaurant's appearance on Gossip Girls, this offer is open to anyone dressed like...a school girl. I think this falls in the lowbrow and brilliant section in New York Magazine's Approval Matrix.
Here's a solid place for your Sunday Funday: Every Sunday get unlimited beer if you order a burger ($16) at Paris Commune located on 99 Bank St. The restaurant website lists other weekday promotions.
