MrPlow writes in with a submission, via IRC, for SoyCow4408.

Just in time for all those holiday packages stacking up at your door, former NASA engineer Mark Rober released on Sunday a video of his new and improved "Glitter Bomb Trap 2.0" that exacts stinky, sparkle-filled revenge on porch pirates. The new trap features design upgrades and even more fart spray. Macaulay Culkin, whose character in Home Alone inspired the original viral prank, makes an appearance in the new video.

    I just saw this video yesterday evening. Suggested by YouTube.

    Coincidence? Or can The Google figure out this was an upcoming story and that I write dumb comments read stuff on SN?

    I saw it on the Trending page while writing the earlier comment:

    So it could be paid promotion for all we know. CNET will probably pick it up for free for clikz, and then we pick it up from CNET. Like a virus.

        It's like glitter, that annoying microplastic pollution that needs to be wiped from the face of the Earth.

          Glitter usually does get wiped up from the face of the Earth after the party or parade is over.

          Keep your glitter off my lawn!
