The history of fake throw up!

Learn all about the history of fake vomit and how it's made.  Hooray for fake vomit!

Nirvana playing Twister with the Smashing Pumpkins!

Check out this video of Nirvana playing Twister with the Smashing Pumpkins.  For some reason, Kris Novoselic insists on playing the game in his underwear and covered in Crisco.  Poor Kurt doesn't seem to know the rules.
