What about this article is POPSCI-ish?

worst...project...EVER!!!

How did this warrant being posted on Popsci? This project seems more at home with Martha Stewart, not here.

Oooo, Popsci Pinterest! Usually I just think people are big whiners when they're like "why is this on POPSCI!!?! BLLAARHGHGHG" but in this case, I agree with you guys. I don't know how this could have possibly been confused as "scientific" in any way.
