When NASA gets really bored, it starts doing pointless comparisons of the first successful landing on the moon. Only the brightest minds at NASA will be jotting down coordinates and tracing all of Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin’s movements. It turns out that the two original mooninites only hopped around in an area smaller than a soccer field. So NASA: ...

The Pixelation forum came up with a neat contest for it’s users. They poked at the question, “what would modern games look like on an original Gameboy?” They ask their users to re-create screenshots of their favorite modern games in pixelated Gameboy-form. You’ll find games like Guitar Hero, BioShock, ICO, Okami, Sam & Max, Flashback (not so modern but very ...

Nothing brings together friends like a pack of smokes. Face off with your Parliaments as the trashy dude from across the train tracks whips out his Newports in a brilliant match of Tic Tac Toe.

It’s called MYBrain and interestingly enough, it is Alexander Lervik’s brain. OK, it’s not his actual brain but it’s as close as it ever will be while propped on a stand, having light ...

I’ve got a bone to pick with you fuckers at Fingertongs. Why aren’t you running a more aggressive advertising campaign? I could have really used a pair during the Summer of 2006 when I burnt my left hand grabbing a hamburger off the grill. Sure, I was seven beers deep but how is that my fault? I needed your gloves ...

I love the mean, snarl-toothed looks these gargoyles have. Whether you hate Obama or McCain, your political adversaries will be sure to get hot-headed when they see one sitting on your desk. At $25 each or $40 for both, these make a great gift for anyone remotely interested into politics or Satan. I still have one question, though: Where’s Bush? ...

So what if George Broussard of 3D Realms said: “It’s going really well. There are several hours of fairly polished game to play. We’re actively testing parts of the game and getting feedback from play testers and things are coming together.”
