    Default 10 things normal people don't do with Lego

    1.Have Lego with your Jack and Coke


    These are an extremely funky way to add fun to a party. However, if you haven’t got any friends you can add them to your glass of whiskey and revel in your retro funk.
    To make these all you need is some old LEGO bricks and a slab of modeling clay. Insert each LEGO piece into the clay and remove - bake, fill with water and freeze.
    or a slightly easier way is to use the LEGO® Ice Brick Tray!!
    2.Make you own LEGO Church and literally play God.

    It’s Monday morning and you’re already missing church and just can’t wait for Sunday? Then create your own one just like this guy.
    As an atheist even I find the amount of detail impressive but I do wonder if the creator has a little bit of a God complex?
    3.Use the LEGO Minifigs to get yourself remembered.

    Do you find yourself at a business conference only to feel that you card is swamped by everyone else’s?
    Well the guys at LEGO have come up with this neat little idea. They have had little Minifigs made of themselves to hand out at conferences. It’s very clever and very cool, just check out this video:

    4.Recreate your favorite biblical scene.

    There is a huge underworld in the LEGO community in recreating famous paintings;the one above is just one example.
    Dig a little deeper and you will find such classics as the Mona Lisa and Scream.
    5. Sort yourself out with some LEGO bling.

    Be the envy of all your friends with this sexy little number, comprised of the decapitated heads from assorted Minifigs.
    If you search for it there is a whole world of LEGO jewelery to be unearthed. Don’t believe me, then hit Google.
    6. Give your MP3 player a LEGO look

    There are a few of these kicking about at the minute but they are primarily aimed at children.
    I don’t see why only kids can have all the fun, these devices look really cool.
    What more can I say but, I WANT ONE!!
    7. Use it to recreate computer history.

    There was a time before modern computers when all computations were painstakingly done by hand.
    Then some clever chap came up with the difference engine during the war to beat the Nazis. Basically it’s a big calculator.
    Some equally clever chap has remade it from LEGO. Hats off to him.
    8. Lego Toilet Flush.

    Do you live with skanks ( One who is disgustingly foul or filthy and often considered sexually promiscuous.)
    Well here is the answer, it’s a LEGO toilet flush so you will never have to dirty your hands again. NICE!!!
    9.Make a weird world in which you are the supreme ruler.

    Look at this, it’s weird.
    I don’t know what it is.
    It really is weird…

    10. Pimp your ride with LEGO DUPLO*.

    Been watching MTV’s Pimp my ride, did you get jealous at some of the cars. Well here’s your chance to get you own back. Do what this guy has done and cover your car in LEGO DUPLO blocks.
    Yes, it’s not paint, they are actually LEGO DUPLO bricks, brilliant!! -

    Except the difference engine was designed by Charles Babbage - Alan Turing worked on breaking the enigma code, and has Turing Machines named after him.
