So RIM has officially announced the Blackberry App World. Stupid name, yes, but it should be considered a serious competitor to Apple’s App Store. Similar to the App Store, App World will have some free apps for you to download. But as far as paid apps go, the minimum price a developer can set an app at is $2.99. To ...

Your scent is about to go where no man’s scent has gone before. How did Captain Kirk manage to scrounge up all of that hot galactic poonani? Other than the fact that he was a fucking space captain (I mean, come on, hello? Chick magnet city!), the Shat-man had a little secret up his sleeve. A trio of fragrances were ...

Congratulations asshole. You can solve a Rubik’s Cube in negative .802934 seconds. Now go choke or something. And by “or something” we of course mean you should move onto something a little more challenging so we can point and laugh at your frustration. The insanely and overly difficult Petaminx, created by Andrew Cormier, was designed using 975 individual parts and ...

Love the outdoors? Run and hike often? Excellent. Pick up those $150 running shoes and get ready to invest another $60 in them. You’ll be getting a set of Microspikes; designed and produced by Kahtoola. Think snow chains for your shoes. As you hike and jog over icy surfaces, you’ll be laughing with total confidence. Those other hikers? Amateurs. You’re ...

I love the graphic: “Data flow.” Cute, you know, ’cause it’s a fucking tampon. Get it in 1GB, 8GB or 16GB. If it fucks up, you can probably recover the data but you’ll never recover your pride. Link [via]

Wow. That was, like, really quick Mr. Bezos. Nice work. Amazon decided to make an incredibly smart business decision and today released an iPhone Kindle app that allows you to download books on the go and read them on your iPhone. It’s a much cheaper way to enjoy the Kindle’s unique features on the device you prefer. Oh, and the ...

Want the muscles of Bruce Wayne without the annoying butler or billions of dollars? Exactly. Throw down $78 and pick up this full-zip hoodie from Lot 29 Urban Wear. Batman’s face is screened onto the hood so your face will even be disguised whilst you rob a bank save a bank being robbed. I’d prefer a little more color on ...

R2DJ, RJD2, R2D2 – whatever your poison, you gotta respect the original droid. This boombox is crafted to look like R2D2, except there’s no midget inside controlling it. Unfortunately, it’s a non-working model, effectively shattering your dreams of a Death Star breakdance competition. Link

Whether child or adult, no one can deny the excitement of a good NERF fight. Instead of driving over to the local Toys R Us and dropping $40 on a Ballzooka, why not build your own precision air rifle that will take out brats from 300 feet away? To make your own, you’ll need PVC pipe, a bike pump and ...

With Blu-ray players being so expensive nowadays, either creator Rog8811 went dumpster diving for parts or just has enough money to smash open a Playstation 3. Whatever the reason, he managed to cram a working blue-laser diode inside a Zippo lighter. The best part? It actually works. Windproof? No problem bro, ’cause this fucker is made of light. If you ...
