When we claimed that Michael Jackson might just be a cyborg, we weren’t that far off. Apparently, MJ was planning to create his very own robotic doppelganger, even going as far as creating blueprints for the mechanical beast. Detailed 3D scans were made of Jackson’s body before he died with the intention of creating an “eerily-lifelike robotic duplicate.” The late ...

Call them Garden Jawas, garden gnomes or garden dwarves, they’re all garden little people to me. You know how I’m always extremely politically correct. We wouldn’t want any midgets hating on Gearfuse, now would we? Little adorable buggers. As long as it keeps its little hands off my droids, we’re cool.

Monopoly is one of the most widely played board games in the entire world, so it shouldn’t be too much of a surprise that players (or at least UK players as of now) can finally create their own personalized version of the game, featuring custom street names, places, spaces and icons. Hell. you could even create your own recession version ...

Imagine this. Let’s just say your name happens to be, oh, I don’t know, Fred Savage, and your grandfather happens to be a book obsessed Peter Falk impersonator. Say he walks into your bedroom one day when you’re coughing your ass off, I mean hacking up a fuckin’ lung, and he starts rambling about some six-fingered man and a rhyming ...

If I was a chick there would be no competition.� Not only would I wear this dress to my prom, but every single one of my bridesmaids would be decked out in 24,000 LED bulbs.

This might just be Mario and Luigi’s attempt to get their name in the papers only days before the release of the new Super Mario Bros. Wii game, but apparently the two plumbers were spotted assaulting a NYC cab driver. Don’t get too discouraged quite yet, your two favorite plumbers still might have a chance. Number one, the attack was ...

Back in the day you either sat in a cube in front of a computer and secretly looked at porn while your boss was off playing golf with some trophy wife by his side (whom I totally didn’t have sex with, by the way) or you worked with your hands, wrist deep in shit or half-dead from back pain. As ...

What happens in Buckingham Palace, stays in Buckingham Palace. How does the Queen keep a lid on her geeky little secret? All she has to do is remind her guests that, technically, she can still order a beheading. Match point! So, now that we actually know what happens behind those palace gates, I’d love to know the Queen mother’s handle. ...

I shattered a windshield with my bare hands once. True story. Of course by bare hands I mean my Fist Sledgehammer’s hands. But technically they are “my” hands. I mean, I do own them, amirite? Of course I am. Leave me alone. Because double fisting your favorite brew can lead to double fisting the nearest face, know what I’m sayin’, ...

As a professional key… forgeter… person, I know the importance of having a steady spot to lay down your shit. If I didn’t have “a spot” I’d just throw my keys anywhere and everywhere. Hell, I’d probably just throw them across the room for the fuck of it. But the Doorganizer changes all of that, boring prick that it is. ...
