I don’t think there’s a lot of people with these old Mac Classics lying around, but for those who do, here’s a cool way to actually use the thing for something other than taking up space. The iPad Mac Classic mod molds the old with the new, integrating the iPad into the display of the Mac Classic. Link [via]

Don’t mind me, I’m just a harmless little shrub… on wheels… with a stalker inside… taking pictures of you bent over. The Terrestrial Shrub Rover, built by Justin Shull, is a movable shrub with enough room inside for one person and three LCD cameras (or about 300 of these mini-cams). A remote webcam version is still on the workbench. Hit ...

I was a little too old to really go crazy over Pokemon, but I have played a few of the games. Never got into the whole trading card thing either. I was a Magic: The Gathering guy. Pokemon cards were about a generation too late for my interest. But there’s no denying the inherent cuteness (for the most part) and ...

Sorry, it’s not actually hedgehog flavored. And it’s much more likely to make you about as slow as a sloth and as coordinated as, well, a really drunk guy. But hey, it looks pretty cool. Here’s what you’ll need to make your own: Ingredients: 1 part grenadine 2 parts Menthomint Schnapps 4 parts Blue Curacao Directions: Pour in the grenadine ...

Some have stated that they wouldn’t be caught dead wearing this shirt beyond a comic conference or the like, but me? Well let’s just say I’ve been known to rock my Michael Jackson Red Jacket t-shirt out in public with no shame. So really, this could really boost my coolness. The Iron Man 2 Comic Chest T-Shirt, available for around ...

A few months back we posted about a Star Wars novel like no other. Death Troopers, a tale about zombie Stormtroopers on the hunt for Jedi brains. Apparently the concept of a zombified Star Wars universe was so successful that you can know purchase your very own bust celebrating the novel’s central theme. The Zombie Death Trooper Mini Bust, not ...

All Robin ever wanted was a partner who could join him in his quest of fighting crime. But he can see right through Batman’s feeble attempts at love. What does Rachel Dawes have that he doesn’t have? Is it the vagina? That’s easy enough to change. Please Bruce. Let love have it’s way! Did anyone else notice that Batman appears ...

Poor Artoo has really gone through a lot the last few years since we publisher our first post back in 2006. From his image being branded on the sides of mailboxes to being used to peddle trash cans to messy geeks, we can’t say R2-D2 has gotten much of a fair deal as far as his image goes. But this ...

Just thinking about this rug makes me hungry. The Roadkill Rug demonstrates the “struggle between attraction and repulsion,” encouraging owners to cuddle up with the image of a mangled fox, or as I like to call it, the foretelling of a barbecue. There’s just no competing with my grilled fox entrails. Cooked in the traditional fashion, via exhaust fumes, of ...

Just when he had all the furniture back where he wanted it, Ash had to come along and call him out. It’s about time that Pokemon stood up for their rights as living beings and were awarded some privileges. Because clearly this whole battling thing isn’t working out. I mean, come on. Charmander still had half a glass of brandy ...
