McDonald's Japan unveils Giga Big Mac

Why do Japanese people always get the good stuff first? McDonald's Japan has launched a new super-sized version of its Big Mac that contains nearly three times as much meat as the original. Called the Giga Big Mac, the monster sandwich has four beef patties, with a bun in the middle separating each pair. It's so big that the fast food giant says you'll feel "a satisfied sense of accomplishment" for eating the whole thing.

Like the regular Big Mac, the Giga also consists of lettuce, onion, pickles, cheese, and mayo. There's no word yet on when or if the burger will be made available elsewhere, but it will go on sale for a limited-time in the Land of the Rising Sun, beginning April 6.

Irene Saputra's Colorful Stitched Pieces

Embroidery is nowhere near forgotten, and in fact, it's experiencing something of a resurgence as artists around the globe are putting their own unique spins on the craft. Indonesia's Irene Saputra is one of them, and more than 45,000 people on Instagram already follow her. Handmade from colorful threads stitched onto fabric, Irene's embroideries begin as original illustrations. What I really like about her stitched pieces is that some of them are meant to be worn. Look at an array of her handiwork!

This steampunk-themed cafe makes the meme cool again

Now, maybe I'm as tired of steampunk as you guys, but that doesn't mean I'm going to pretend something like this isn't cool. Located in the Romanian city of Cluj, Enigma claims to be "the world's first kinetic steampunk bar." I don't know if that's true, but the place looks pretty dope with all the dynamic art installations. [h/t: Colossal ]
