DeviantArt user Aimeekitty created this awesome Nerf Maverick Steampunk Gun, which adds a taste of sci-fi awesomeness to the classic Nerf gun design. Thwarting invaders in your backyard never looked this cool. Now only if we can get this thing to shoot bronze bullets. Link [via]

If I eat enough beans, I can usually pass gas to the tune of nearly any classical piece. My sphincter is just that talented. These Jammin’ Johns Musical Toilet Bowl Seats seemingly encourage the composition of gas-tastic pieces of balladry.

Innovation meets beauty with the creation of the Lamborghini Ankonian Concept. Not your grandpapi’s Lambo, this bad boy appears to be created using reptilian metallic scales. Built like some sort of dinosaur/shielded Batmobile hybrid, the Arkonian is pretty much an orgasm in car form.

I have a dream. A modest dream when compared to that of Martin Luther King Jr., but a dream nevertheless. I have a dream that one day I’ll be able to live in a home that is fully-designed in the Steampunk fashion. From floor to ceiling, this home would be decked out in Victorian/Sci-fi goodness. And don’t think I would ...

This LEGO sculpture depicts the very definition of a flamer. Made using every fiery LEGO piece he could get his hands on, David Pickett created Helios, the flaming LEGO monster. I can hear the cheesy action hero taglines now. “If you play with fire, you’re gonna get burrrrned, son.” Look, there might be other, easier ways to create your own ...

But this bizarre Mouse Assisted Interplay system allows two socializing love birds to walk around wearing a mobile mouse nest, allowing your mouse to interact with your partner’s mouse, supposedly spurring ...

She might be a pile of junk, but she’s got it where it counts. One thing no one complained about aboard the Millennium Falcon was the comfort. With all of that seating space, it’s no wonder that the comfort level was the one thing Skywalker couldn’t bitch about. Experience the ship’s comfort yourself with this awesome Millennium Falcon-inspired bed. Complete ...

And they really thought they could avoid weighing themselves by hiding their own scale. Nice try, fatty. There’s no way to avoid your morbid obesity now. There’s no blaming it on your big bones. The scale doesn’t lie. Either does the fact that you can’t fit through my door without shimmying ever so delicately. The Doormat Scale won’t let your ...

There’s something about vintage-styled book covers that really grabs your attention. Especially when the vintage style meets modern technology. What if modern web services happened to be books from the 60s? Don’t ask me how, just pretend that by some stretch of the imagination, these web services were inspired by vintage books. The resulting book covers would have likely looked ...

Hey man, don’t come crying to us when your new Garden Noam starts correcting your linguistic skills or berates your guests with tirades about U.S. foreign policy. We totally warned you and we might just let an “I told you so” fly. Garden Noams are the new Garden Jawas are the new Garden Gnomes. Link [via]
