I’m not entirely sure how Wile E. Coyote could afford everything he bought from the ACME company over the years, but I do know there were plenty of gadgets and contraptions I would have loved picking up myself. I mean who can’t find a use for a Do-It Yourself Tornado Kit, Rocket Powered Roller Skates [...]
Spotted on FarEast Gizmo, a Hello Kitty car charger for cell phones.
If someone had asked me right when I woke up this morning if I expected to see an superb Family Guy/Matrix trailer mashup, I would have said “frickin’ sweet” and may have searched YouTube for it later, but I wouldn’t have done it so quite incredulously
Ha ha — pincers. This reminds me of The Simpsons episode Team Homer where Otto is obsessed with getting that lobster harmonica out of the claw game at the bowling alley. But instead of a bowling alley, this claw game is located in Osaka, Japan’s Namba district, and instead of winning a lobster harmonica, you [...]
The Tokyo Yakult Swallows baseball team played this past weekend in vintage uniforms from their days as the Yakult Atoms. True to their name, the Yakult Atoms uniforms had manga pioneer Osamu Tezuka’s most famous character, Mighty Atom (Tetsuwan Atom/Astro Boy), embroidered on their sleeves. The vintage uniforms were part of the team’s promotional campaign [...]
Given the choice, these days I might rather go for a spin in the Tumbler Batmobile from the latest Batman films, but as I was — and still am — definitely a fan of the Tim Burton version. Sure, he didn’t actually design it, but he definitely helped influenced what has become another iconic iteration [...]
There are countless books that will supposedly teach you how to properly raise your kids, but only one that takes the opposite approach. How To Traumatize Your Children is part of the “Self-Hurt Series” of books and includes chapters that cover everything from narcissistic parenting to being your child’s best friend to the convenience of [...]
This vinyl Alien toy by Medicon Toys has to be the most adorable Xenomorph I’ve ever seen. You know, if you’d asked me if H.R. Giger’s perverse xenosexual alien designs could be transformed into cute bobbleheads and shrunk down to eight inches high while maintaining their phallic, skeletal monstrosity, I’d have told you it couldn’t [...]
Even though the Indiana Jones films were Lucasfilm productions, I don’t remember the original 3 featuring as extensive a marketing or product tie-in push as the Star Wars films did, but it seems they’re going to make up for that with the 4th Indiana Jones film that’s set to hit theaters in less than a [...]
I’m no enemy of cuteness. And I’m no enemy to Hello Kitty. How could anyone hate Hello Kitty? She’s adorable: an anthropomorphic cat with blank, staring eyes and a cute pink bow on her head who has forged a multi-billion dollar empire based upon people’s pathological obsession with saying hello to her. There is nothing [...]
I don’t know about you, but this sign makes me awful hungry for rabbit meat.
Nearly six-inches tall — in-scale for the tiny dwarf a real-life Mario would be before eating an HGH-infused mushroom — this “Super Mario Singing Glow Star” sold at Thinkgeek for $18 will, when pressed, play the invulnerability theme from Super Mario Bros. while glowing on and off.
Watch out co-workers! Dan from Sales is smashing ceiling [...]
Using an interesting blend of real-world video and cartoon-enemy overlays, ToonCrisis is a fun Flash shooter with an original soundtrack of punk-ish/ska songs to keep you motivated.
The objective is simply to kill the monsters by aiming your laser-shooting hand (which is, of course, in the shape of a gun) at them and clicking the left [...]
It’s a pretty nice place, the Earth, and we don’t have another one yet. So, save the trees, plant a whale, and try and recycle your obsolete and/or ugly gadgets if you can. Happy Earth Day!
Bonsai trees are generally a sign of peace and tranquility. Some people spend countless hours taking care of them and making sure they are perfect. So what would happen if a miniature care spun out of control and wrecked into your precious tree? It wouldn’t be very zen, that’s for sure.
If you think it’s amusing [...]
