There’s a new report out now from Mid-Missouri Internet Crimes Task Force and you need to take this seriously, folks. Turns out, if you have a Nintendo Wii, your child risks being molested. I’m not joking! The game Animal Crossing: City Folk for the Wii is the new AOL chatroom of yesteryear. Don’t take my word for it, take Andy ...

I’ve got to book a trip to Tasmania because if they have jellyfish with fucking bright rainbows shooting out of them, I can’t wait to see what the shit on land looks like. Some jellyfish researcher (really?) named Lisa Gershwin discovered the new species off the coast of Tasmania. The crazy part about this jellyfish is that it doesn’t even ...

This is a chair. It has many features that most chairs carry, including but not limited to a base, wheels and a backing. There’s just one slight difference between this chair and others: it’s made out of fucking soap. Don’t ask me why creator Nancy Wu created this. Maybe she’s dirty all the time and instead of bothering to bathe, ...

We’re not, what you might call, “living large” here at Gearfuse (unless we’re talking about our scarily huge genitals. Really, we’re monsters.) We’re lucky if we can have more than two friends over at once without feeling cramped. But that’s not to say we’re complaining. We have a little nook to call our own for the time being, and that’s ...

We’ve fooled around with a few alcoholic holsters in the past. Frankly, they all felt sort of empty. What’s a holster without a high-powered weapon? Sure, we still had multiple cans of beer to keep us busy, but we need to be shooting something WHILE we drink to really feel like real men. The Beer Blaster allows you to literally ...

You ever drink four cups of coffee at 8am? Yeah? When did you get off the toilet? Shoot your friends with beer One of the most creative iPod accessories yet Safari got its ass haaaaaacked Punch Out! is making a huge comeback A real ghostbuster Sony-Ericsson hops on the 8-megapixel phone bandwagon The world’s first color e-reader is out! Don’t ...

Delicious but not nutritious! If these cupcakes are anything like the Wii, you’ll love them when you first get them and after a few weeks, they’ll sit on your kitchen counter growing stale by the minute. Or should I say miinute? Ha! Get it? I’ll see you in hell. Link

The Arduino continues to power innovation and creation well into 2009. This blender, created by Matti Niinimaki, is rigged to create beats. No smoothies here, folks, just pounding techno full of cheesy sound FX. The Beat Blender prototype reads fruit embedded with RFID tags that are dropped into it. Hitting different blending speeds (Puree, Liquify, Blend, Grind, etc.) will add ...

I’m going to go out on a limb here and take a guess that designer Mama Anders loves to fuck. I mean, why else would she have dozens of blow up dolls with which to make clothing out of? It’s clearly the only logical reasoning here. Nevertheless, I’m sure you already want one of these hoodies. They look fashionable as ...

Have $600 or $700 lying around and demand an iPhone 3G? Fantastic news! AT&T will now gladly sell you an unsubsidized iPhone 3G that requires no contract and doesn’t even need an activation. That means those rich nerds out there who are jailbreaking the device can scoop up a few of these without having to hit the eBay circuit. I ...
