Good stuff... but NOW what we really need is cheese in the shape of Lego bricks. Just glue some pegs to Velveeta blocks and there you have it... a Lego you can safely step on!

Why is this piece called a "cheese slope"? "Slope" I get; but "cheese"?

Sounds like someone who's never used a nordic-style cheese slicer.

Not the pop up book though

That one kind of stresses me out because one of the people is on fire

Everything else is good

While I can appreciate the artistry and creativity, the Lego purist in me is bothered that these aren't connected as Lego parts should be.

They do look nifty, though.

Except you now have to smuggle and dispose of 22 lbs of it and Cheese Party is off the table.

From the title, I thought this was going to be about cheese wheels in Skyrim, which are the preferred object for monkeying around with the game's physics engine, since they bounce and roll... and, well, because cheese is funny.

2500 Cheese wheels rolling off a mountain.

Cheese explosion / Cheese cannon.

(The lactose-intolerant have other objets du chaos, too)

You might be onto something. How about a LEGO minifig made of butter? (photo for scale)

That pop-up book is currently occupying 75% of my brain's processing right now. Holy crap.
