In 2012, everything is artisanal, and everyone’s a foodie. The latest epicurious celebrity crossover? Skrillex, the dubstep DJ/hipster icon—the Rapunzel of the spinning set.

How did he get on the list? Cooking with Skrillex, a new Tumblr that must surely rank high on the list of pointless yet amusing and endlessly scrolling blogs.

Very high.

While most of the images are straight-up photoshop goofs, there is the occasional pointed commentary. Skrillex is a polarizing figure, in the booth or in the kitchen, and not everyone contributing can be said to be a fan.

The man doesn’t look as if he’s consumed anything that doesn’t come from a package, foil bindle, or capsule in the last decade, but the energetic photoshops of him flipping pizza, brandishing a ketchup bottle in front of an adoring throng, wokking with Yan, or staffing a Burger King give a different impression.

Then again, there’s this one.

If you think you have what it takes to take on Skrillex in the kitchen or on the Tumblr dashboard, submit your entries here for a chance to win a $20 gift card.
