A Burrito Vending Machine Exists

We know how you feel… You want a burrito, you want it right damn now, and you’re a bit too stoned to interact with other humans. The Burritobox feels your pain, and has provided what appears to be the very first burrito vending machine.

Simply stumble over to West Hollywood where the only machine is currently located — enter a few prompts on the handy touch screen and, in about a minute, you’ll have an all-natural, hormone and antibiotic-free burrito. Munchies thwarted. Humans spoken to… Zero.

A 45-Page Water Menu Exists at LA Restaurant

You know that stuff that comes out of your faucet for free? Well, there’s now a restaurant that would like you to drive to their location, gaze upon a 45-page menu of nothing but water, and then non-ironically order a $16-bottle from a “water sommelier.”

The restaurant that you probably hate now is called, Ray’s and Stark Bar, and it’s unsurprisingly in L.A. However, the menu is kind enough to offer tasting notes, and uses a lot of fancy adverbs to describe each clear tasteless liquid.

Feeling thirsty yet? Scroll through the water menu below…

Rainn Wilson Received His LA Kings Hockey Tickets Encased in Jell-O

Along with the rest of Hollywood, Rainn Wilson — aka Dwight Schrute of The Office — recently jumped aboard the LA Kings bandwagon. The LA Kings, after receiving a Tweet from Wilson regarding tickets, responded awesomely, and sent them encased in a block of Jell-O.

The entire correspondence can be found below. And if the significance of Rainn’s tickets encased on Jell-O is lost on you — the reference is also included.

A 24-Hour Cupcake ATM Exists

Just when we thought that the cupcake craze was out, something like the 24-hour Cupcake ATM comes along and pulls us back in.

Brought to us by Sprinkles — who some credit/blame for starting this imperishable food trend in the first place — the Cupcake ATM has been installed in front of their Beverly Hills location. Converted and painted pink, the former cash machine dispenses cupcakes and several other items from the store, 24/7. But what, no drive-up? This is LA.

The official word from Sprinkles:

This automatic cupcake machine dispenses freshly baked cupcakes, cupcake mixes, apparel and even cupcakes for Fido! In the heart of Beverly Hills nestled between Sprinkles Cupcakes and the brand new Sprinkles Ice Cream, 24 Hour Sprinkles will be continuously restocked day and night with a variety of freshly baked cupcake flavors.

UPDATE: Gothamist is reporting that Cupcake ATMs will soon be available in New York City.

UPDATE II: Now with video evidence.
