Here’s a creative idea: take an old, radical skateboard deck and turn it into a usable chair. Aside from recycling and bringing new design to the living room, the Skede chair is available with a deck from Control or without a deck. That means you can add your own or Ryan Ash can add his broken NOFX skate deck. No ...

Those shady motherfuckers at Apple decided to mention a Mac Pro update an hour after I caught the original update on the iMac and Mac Mini. The new Mac Pros cost $300 less than before, feature new Intel “Nehalem” Xeon CPUs (read: hella fuckin’ fast) and better graphics cards standard. Some bullshit about DDR3 RAM and that about sums it ...

Want the muscles of Bruce Wayne without the annoying butler or billions of dollars? Exactly. Throw down $78 and pick up this full-zip hoodie from Lot 29 Urban Wear. Batman’s face is screened onto the hood so your face will even be disguised whilst you rob a bank save a bank being robbed. I’d prefer a little more color on ...

R2DJ, RJD2, R2D2 – whatever your poison, you gotta respect the original droid. This boombox is crafted to look like R2D2, except there’s no midget inside controlling it. Unfortunately, it’s a non-working model, effectively shattering your dreams of a Death Star breakdance competition. Link

Steve Jobs is off on some island banging chicks and sipping margaritas. Meanwhile, COO Tim Cook announced lackluster updates for iMacs and Mac Minis today. The 24-inch iMac has new NVIDIA graphics, twice the memory and twice the storage and still only costs $1499. The Mac Mini also got an upgrade, scoring 5 USB ports, Firewire 800 and a variety ...

Whether child or adult, no one can deny the excitement of a good NERF fight. Instead of driving over to the local Toys R Us and dropping $40 on a Ballzooka, why not build your own precision air rifle that will take out brats from 300 feet away? To make your own, you’ll need PVC pipe, a bike pump and ...

I’m not quite sure what the Type Cube is supposed to be but from what I can gather, you can design your own fonts using cubes with painted shapes on them. Use black squares and quarter-leaves to spell out classic words like “BONER” and “TOOL.” Actually, Type Cubes look like a fun way to teach children about letters, design and ...

I’m curious. Do you own a Macbook? Does the plastic casing of it fall apart at random like the piece of shit it is? Mine does. If it gets any worse, I’m going to do what this guy did and throw it in a fucking thing that holds paper and mount it to the back of my monitor. It’s not ...

With Blu-ray players being so expensive nowadays, either creator Rog8811 went dumpster diving for parts or just has enough money to smash open a Playstation 3. Whatever the reason, he managed to cram a working blue-laser diode inside a Zippo lighter. The best part? It actually works. Windproof? No problem bro, ’cause this fucker is made of light. If you ...
