As a professional blogger, I have about as much physical activity as your vacuum cleaner (not very much). I get to lounge around in my pajamas all day and read cool shit on the internet. Basically I’m everything you wish you could be. Sorry, it had to be said. Now BOW to me! But blogging doesn’t come without its hazards. ...

Star Wars and Star Trek have been locked in an intrinsically geeky battle since the beginning of modern geeky times. I’ve always been way more of a Star Wars guy, as I’m sure you can clearly tell from just taking a fleeting glace at this very blog, but as a master of the science fiction arts, I have to admire ...

There appears to be a budding Dr. Mengele in the house, though this time Gummi Bears are the victims of the heinous experimentation. The lengths at which some people are willing to go in the name of science is sickening. All these poor, innocent Gummi Bears were looking for was to be sent quietly through your digestive system. And this ...

Geek porn. That is exactly what this is. A cleverly devised ploy to sell as many t-shirts as possible to the geeky masses. As much as you might try to not buy in to total geek bait, it’s hard to deny the allure of Star Wars and zombies melded together on, what else, a tee. As if the founding fathers ...

There’s just no getting around it. Emoticons have become part of the the international vernacular. Emoticons span the language barrier and allow for coy communication across any culture. It’s amazing that we don’t find little winky faces in ancient cave paintings. The Emoticon Stamp from Kaoiro allows you to mix and match your favorite punctuation marks to create up to ...

TMNT action figures were my toy of choice when I still whipped out my figures for a daily rumble. I’m trying to give it up, really. I haven’t even touched my toys since yesterday. What you are witnessing above is supposedly the new look of the upcoming live-action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film. I’m not quite sure how I feel ...

Ben Heck is at it again with is newest creation, the Ps3 Slim Laptop, his second attempt at creating the perfect mobile PS3 Slim. This time around Heck decks the laptop out with blue accents, a 17? widescreen 720p HDMI display, a built-in cable storage department and built-in stereo speakers & headphone jack. Heck also added more air holes then ...

We’ve dealt with shower curtains featuring knife-wielding maniacs and an awkwardly staring Robert Pattinson, so for us to label a particular shower curtain as the creepiest one of its kind, that’s quite a feat. This curtain in particular features the silhouette of a mysterious shadow man, creating the illusion that someone awaits your arrival in the shower. Grab your own ...

For all those men out there who think their life is worthless just because your eyes might be abnormally far apart. Just grow a mustache and maybe one day you too can become the coolest light switch in the world. Of course, the mustache isn’t mandatory, but not having one is sort of like buying a race car only to ...

Vitruvius Pollio, the man who inspired Leonardo da Vinci’s work on his iconic Vitruvian Man, once described the human body as being “the principal source of proportion among the Classical orders of architecture.” Maybe that’s true when you’re dealing with a perfectly proportioned male specimen, such as myself, but Inspector Gadget’s form is more akin to that of a fun ...
