Oh me! Oh my! Let’s get down, people! Originally made back in 1979, these Nike Killshot trainers are making a comeback in a really nice color scheme. I love how the maroon is dominant in surrounding the subtle gray and creme tones. They’ll certainly look awesome with a pair of jeans. If you can find a pair (they’re limited reissue), ...

These handmade cases for the iPhone 3G are really something. Clearly a lot of time and craftsmanship went into making each one and lucky for you, they’re up for sale on Etsy. At $85, it’s not a cheap case and don’t even think about keeping it in your pocket – it’s simply too large. This is more of a luxury ...

Ever walk into a nice deli and get an everything bagel? You know, the one with all the seeds, wheat and tasty goodness glued to the outside? It reminds me of this Chinese console called the CVFH-N03-4G. Boring name, I know, but this fucker can play games (read: ROMs) from the NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, Game Boy Advance, Neo-Geo and ...

Getting poked in the eye sucks. Having your eye worn on the finger of some hipster sucks even worse. The Blinking Eye Ring seems like the perfect fashion statement for anyone who wants to seem more intellectual and artsy than they actually are. “The eye stands for like, inner-vision and peace, or something, bro.” Just remember, there’s no ‘eye’ in ...

During the day, you’re all business. Not even the slightest “woot” escapes the depths of your icy cold lungs. But at night, after your shift, you like to unwind a bit. Ya know, get a little freaky-deaky. Maybe drop by a club and drink a little bub? But your business suit makes you look like a square, or even worse, ...

You could go through all of the trouble of learning how to roll your own sushi rolls, spending months mastering the art, or you could take the easy way out, get one of these nifty sushi rollers designed by Osko+Deichmann and be eating in no time. The latter sounds good to me, thank you very much. This contraption kind of ...

The very Frenchly-named Jean-Baptiste Gouraud designed these ingenious Freedombook Facebook business cards. The cards encourage the recipient to “Confirm” (or “Confirmer” if you want to sound pretentious) Gouraud as a business connection, or perhaps as a life partner, if that’s how you roll. The card holds hall of the pertinent information, including phone number and e-mail address. Let’s just hope ...

You know, Stormtroopers have feelings too. Sure, at first glance, they’re all uniform, no substance. But if you get to know a Stormtrooper, you’ll find out they’re just like the rest of us. They have feelings and get hurt too. Of course, if Darth Vader found out, he’d lay them off with no severance pay. Link

This has to be one of the best street pranks ever. Spotted on the streets of Manhattan, some urban prankster had the ingenious idea of altering the “stop” hand of a traditional crosswalk light to resemble a hand flipping the bird instead. Want to cross the street? Fuck off! No really, just go away. Viva las vandalism! This is so ...

Here’s an interesting new geeky sexual fetish to explore. Enter into the world of latex alien costumes. I’m pretty sure that first one is based on some weird Cloverfield-like alien, while the second one is the more traditional Alien series extraterrestrial. Two aliens, one suit. Just deflate some air and you have a whole new latex fantasy to explore. While ...
