Before Sarah Larson was George Clooney’s arm puppet, she was a real party girl as evidenced by this photo and others. George, you the man. Not only did someone get her to lick something off a magazine, but somehow they talked her into sticking a beverage in her crack, apparently. Nice work all around.

Now DK has his own beverage. It was recently spotted on the shelves at New York’s Nintendo World Store. It’s loaded with ingredients like taurine, caffeine, inositol, guarana extract, panax ginseng extract, and plenty of high fructose corn syrup, so it’s bound to give you a serious jolt while playing Smash Bros. You’ll probably freak out, jump up and smack your little brother in the face with the Wiimote, then run out in the street naked.

Jessica Simpson is feeling a ton better after being hospitalized with a kidney infection. As you can see they couldn’t do anything about her somewhat manly bone structure. She can now go back to assaulting our ears full time.

Look at that goofy look on her mouth. Like a sex doll that had a lip repair.

The eyes on the girl in this creepy flash animation follow your mouse cursor. I can’t get over how real she looks.

Her eyes are all bloodshot too. I wonder if that is intentional. It’s really freakin’ me out man.

Time to get your geek on.

• Forget the honey-do list for one weekend. What could be a better use of that new Makita belt sander than the power tool drag races? “Blown Big-Block Belt Sanders . . .Nitro Burning Funny-Saws. . .Wheel Standin’ Weed Wackers…” More pictures and information here.
• The record to solve a Rubik’s cube is 9.18 seconds. Me? I’ve never even come close to solving that thing. Maybe I need this DIY kit to teach me how to become a speed cuber.
• This DIY Sega arcade cabinet is a geek’s dream. It has a large Sony display on top, a car audio system built in, and it houses not only his PC, but a PS3, and Xbox 360 as well.

Your daughter will be the most popular girl in school with a new fake lower-back tattoo from Toys ‘R Us. All the smart boys will immediately correlate her tattoo with her likely illegal substance abuse and potential for sexual promiscuity.

Mother and daughter will be adorable with matching halfshirts and low-rise jeans to accentuate their new tramp stamps.

Now they need another machine dispensing candy cigarettes and cutesy little 6oz Red Bulls.

Every geek I know has a broken console or two lying around. Every geek I know also thinks he can play guitar. And maybe they can, but I’ll still kick their sorry asses in Smash Bros. Why not build a real working guitar using some of your old consoles, like these guys did? How about a Dreamcast guitar or one made out of a Nintendo Famicom?

Check out some cool images below.

Who doesn’t love wardrobe malfunctions? Add the Pussycat dolls to the equation and you better let me see! First there’s CARMIT with a boob popping out of her skimpy vest. Then ASHLEY’S beaver pops out of her tiny shorts. I’m not sure, but I think this means there wll be six more weeks of winter.

This was way too much skin for Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia’s capital city. Pussycat Dolls promoters Absolute Entertainment were fined 10,000 Ringgits (that’s about $1,436) for allowing the act to perform “sexually suggestive” routines.

X-Files creator Chris Carter, writer Frank Spotnitz and others gathered on Wednesday to talk about the TV series and share some information about the upcoming film.

“While this is not a mythology movie, it’s true to everything that’s come before,” Spotnitz said at the William S. Paley Television Festival. “It’s true to Mulder and Scully, who they are and where they would be this point in their lives and all of the experiences that they’ve had.”

They really didn’t say very much more, but I’m expecting some Muldar and Scully humping, while aliens tape it and put it online. New teaser trailer HERE.

I’m pretty sure Appetite for Destruction was the first tape I owned that had swearing on it. I remember stealing it from my older brother’s tape deck and listening to it in wide-eyed amazement. Guns N’ Roses instantly made the 80’s hair bands I was accustomed to seem completely insignificant and even embarrassingly silly.

Fast forward to my college years and the “Use Your Illusion” releases. I vaguely remember the rumblings of a new GNR album called Chinese Democracy. At that point GNR had pretty much gone the way of the dinosaur thanks to the likes of Nirvana and Pearl Jam. I too had made the grunge transformation from Headbangers Ball to flannel and combat boots.

Well, it’s now 2008 and Chinese Democracy is still in the works and Axl Rose is the lone remaining original member of GNR. Mostly famous for its delays (recording for began in 1994), Chinese Democracy is slated to be the sixth studio album by GNR.

Naturally, this is where Dr Pepper enters the story. On March 26, 2008, Dr Pepper announced via press release it would give everyone a free can of their soft drink to everyone in America with the exception of estranged guitarists Slash and Buckethead, if Chinese Democracy was released in 2008. Axl has responded to their plea here.

This is a brilliant marketing ploy by Dr. Pepper for sure. Don’t be confused though, Dr. Pepper is not supporting the Tibetans. This is a publicity stunt supporting the epic 17-years-in-the-making “Chinese Democracy.”

In support of “Chinese Democracy” I am going to give Appetite for Destruction a listen on my iPod today. I may even grab a Dr Pepper from the break room.
