This, ladies and gentlemen, is a human body in horizontal slices. My — and thousands of others' — initial reaction to this animated GIF is to think/comment about the apparent presence of male genitalia. Also, do the buttocks remind anyone else of a delicious rump of ham? This just goes to show that the internet is full of mature adults. ;-) Via Reddit....

There will be no PicDump today because…well, have you ever had one of those days when you feel like your kids will be the death of you?
I’ve been having one of those WEEKS.
The physical evidence includes a bruised left knee which is so swollen it hurts to bend (from lunging to prevent an injury which led to injuring myself from slipping on a toy left on the floor) and a fat, bleeding lip (Aerin threw the remote control at my face this morning).
But the emotional trauma of dealing with seemingly-endless tantrums, quelling fight after fight, and painstakingly preparing meals which will be rejected with, “Umma, I want cereal!” can be much more exhausting, no?

So apparently, getting a mini-me made of yourself is a thing in Japan. A company in Akihabara called Clone Factory urges women to preserve that special moment in life (e.g., your wedding day) with your own special Jibun-san [自分さん], which roughly translates to "Me." The dolls are modeled after not only your face, but also your makeup, hair, and dress! The dolls, which cost around ¥138,000 each ($1,350 in USD as of this writing), are created by first obtaining a 3D scan of yourself with the help of a few strategically-placed digital cameras. Blogger Danny Choo was able to get a first-hand experience: A computer then creates a rendering of your face, and a 3D printer carves out the head.
