Sort of like Yoda and Luke, but spiderier. Because who hasn’t dreamed of enslaving Spider-Man and wearing him on your back. Does this make us a super villain?? At least a little bit? Link [via]

After years of building up their name in the recording industry, AKG released a slew of consumer headphones, ready for us in the States to dabble with. I’ve had the opportunity to play around with both the K 340 and K 450 models, both portable, though in-canal and foldable respectively. After a week or so of listening to these phones ...

Never mess with a chef’s oven when he isn’t looking or you might get yo’ face tenderized, fool. Cooking is serious business. Sometimes you’ve gotta show a punk who’s in charge. Ken Goldman’s Meat Tenderizer Ring has a dual function; weapon and tool of the trade. Link [via]

Summer might be at its tail end, but it’s never too early to prepare for the first heat wave of 2010. For those of us who prefer an element of extreme sports, such as the amazingly artistic Parkour, which we happen to be a leading authority on, in everything that we do, this AquaClimb rock climbing wall adds mountain climbing ...

Speed, speed, speed. Check out these three videos to see the major speed boost firmware version 3.0 provides for the PS3, even for Blu Ray discs. Not to mention, it’s much prettier.

Batteries are also fine for some authentic pissing action. Thanks so much Thanko for another irreplaceable and essential gadget. What would we do without you. Link [via]

I have a confession. A few years ago we sort of lied to you by saying that the old NES Coffee Table was actually a coffee table. In actuality, it was more like a NES Controller trunk, not a proper table at all. Luckily, if you’re really, really into geeky household shit, there is currently a real NES Controller coffee ...

Sure, “Talk Like a Pirate Day” might be exciting, but there’s no free candy for slurring your words like a drunken sea hobo. Halloween is now officially less than two months away, which means its time to start playing around with a few costume ideas. If you’ve been dying to dress up in something super geeky this year, you can ...

Disney has already scooped up Marvel and their massive catalog 5,000 comic book characters. But what if Disney moved onto greener pastures and started scooping up toy companies as well? If Hasbro was picked up by Disney, we might start seeing plenty of more toys like this. The Donald Duck Transformer is both nightmarish (as you contemplate the possible future) ...
