Vibrating panties, Nendo’s chopsticks, ancient brewers and more in our look at the web this week
Japanese archeologists in Egypt uncovered the tomb of Khonso Em Heb last week. Aside from the fact that he lived 3,200 years ago during the pharaonic period, he was actually one of ancient Egypt’s most famous and respected beer-makers.
