Let’s keep the scratchin’ going to the early morn. Yeahhhh, boooooy. Made using an old, retired Fischer turntable and a rockin’ Doobie Brothers vinyl album, the Turntable Clock WAS available on Etsy, but has since sold out. I’m guessing there was only one available in the first place, but who knows, more might pop up if you’re lucky, Link [via]

I’m not quite sure of what city this awesome Darth Vader/Misfits Skull wheatpaste graffiti was found, though we do know it was on Lake Street in some city, somewhere. Although the two are unrelated, it sort of works out great. Children of the late 70s are going to be really happy with this one. Link [via]

Seems like a pretty even fight, right? Thanks reader Zach for submitting this awesome image. We salute you!

Spotted at, of all places, the Oregon State Fair, this LEGO Yoda model just about made me shit bricks. Let it be known that my fecal bricks rarely take the form of Star Wars characters. My crap prefers Futurama for some reason. You haven’t lived until you’ve crapped out an accurate model of Professor Farnsworth. Surprisingly, Yoda only took second ...

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.

I love handling dog feces just as much as the next guy, but it’s the smell I can’t stand. Using my hands, the smell gets a little to close to my nostrils for comfort. The Shoe Shovel eliminates any hand-to-dog-feces contact, leaving you, if all works out, relatively scentless. I know, I know, there’s nothing quite as fulfilling as holding ...
