Roomba Saves Kids From Poisonous Snake

November 29th, 2009

Roomba Saves Kids From Poisonous SnakeThe Roomba normally just trucks along doing it’s thing, picking up dirt and dust, plotting the killing of humanity and generally minding it’s own business. But now they have started to kill. Not humans. Not yet.

You have to start small after all. And this Roomba has started by killing a small poisonous snake. The carcass was found mangled and wrapped around one of the robot’s rotating brushes, saving the kids of the home. But those kids don’t know that the Roomba was only practicing for bigger kills.

Beware the Roomba.

Awesome Space Invaders T-Shirt

November 8th, 2009

Awesome Space Invaders T-ShirtSo this is what the Space Invaders really look like. I knew it. We always saw them as flat 8-bit graphics. Turns out they’re just like us, flying around in ships and blowing stuff up.

No wonder we never won against them. We were shooting at their damn shadows. I have a new found respect for them now. And now that we know their true form they should be easy to kill. You can get this shirt for only $18.

Paperboy In Real Life

September 27th, 2009


It’s been awhile since I played Atari’s classic arcade game Paperboy. This is Paperboy in real life. Well, real life, mixed with video game graphics. I don’t want to spoil it for you, but a bunch of paper throwing skills are on display as well as non-catching the paper skills and the video is way longer than it needs to be.

Editing people. You can shave 2 whole minutes off this thing with a shotgun aimed at that bicycling bastard. Anyway check out the video.

Mario-Inspired Eveningwear

September 20th, 2009

Mario-Insired EveningwearThis is a line of Mario-inspired eveningwear. It’s all sparkly and is best worn when attending a ball in the Mushroom kingdom. These come from crafster user montyfull. Further proof that geeks are inheriting the Earth… And attending events in video-game wear.

What I really want to see is an evening dress with a 1-up mushroom on each buttcheek, so I have an excuse to cop a feel. I was just trying to get an extra life, I swear.

anatoWii: The Anatomy of the Wii

September 13th, 2009

anatoWii: The Anatomy of the WiiThe Anatomy of a Console by Angela Moramarco. I’m a little surprised. I expected the Wii to have more meat on it’s bones. It sure has enough ribs. Looks stringy. I don’t think I would buy this at my local butcher.

The Wiimote is where the meat is, but the console pic shows that the main console is full of brains. The two communicate of course, allowing you to play Mario and such. I just never realized that you would need a doctor to fix the Wii.

Made by Juicy Jay’s, the papers will give you a “sizzlin’ bacon taste and aroma”. You’ll be so baked, you won’t know if you’re smoking or frying dead pig. Hey, at least it’s not bad for your arteries.

Imperial Walker Bunk Bed

July 24th, 2009

The guy who built this bunk bed is the best dad ever. He built his son an AT-AT themed bunk bed. The only thing my dad ever built me was a crappy ikea entertainment center, that had so many nails in it, it looked like a porcupine with a thousand hard-ons.

I mean look at this thing. It’s actually an AT-AT with a head and everything. Look at the ladder going up to the top. You can get IN it. Awesome.
