NYC Subways Install LCD Screens to Track Train Locations

While I’m not a New Yorker, I live in close enough proximity to the city that this is pretty exciting. New York City has installed an LCD screen at the Bedford Ave L station subway stop, testing a system that could one day allow patrons to see exactly where their train is. Updating every 15 seconds, the screen accompanies boards installed earlier this year which tell subway riders when the next train will be at the station. If this little... Continue reading

Because It’s Friday: Abraham Lincoln Made of Cheddar and Other Cheese Sculptures

We like to get down on Friday’s with the best of them. And what better way to get down then to celebrate the greatness of cheese sculpting? I know I’m excited! These sculptures make my feeble attempts at sculpting a cheese penis out of my measly string cheese look like pure amateur play. Cheddar happens to be my favorite, and I’ve never been one to hesitate eating a U.S. president when I have the chance. As it turns out, cheese... Continue reading

Google Playing Around With the Idea of Button-less Search

We’ve yet to see this live ourselves, but people across Twitter and the blogosphere are commenting about a button-less Google search home page which has been popping up sporadically across the web, notably for Windows users using Firefox. Apparently, instead of the usual “Google Search” and “I’m Feeling Lucky” buttons, there simply reads a message: “Press enter to search.” According to some of these users, the buttons fade-in when you mouse over the area. Anyone experiencing this live? Link

Remote-Controlled Tissue Box Brings The Kleenex to the Nose, Not the Other Way Around

Admiral Ackbar Gets Obamatized a la Shepard Fairey

Today on TeeFury, Admiral Ackbar gets the iconic Shepard Fairey “Hope” Obama print treatment. Instead of the word “hope,” the word “trap” has been used, as a reference to Ackbar’s famous “It’s a trap!” line from the Return of the Jedi. Link

LEGO Transformers Characters

I’ve always wanted to own my own set of Transformers, but who has the room to fit an entire set of massive robots in their home, let alone a tiny apartment like mine. But hey, I can have something even cooler. My Transformers transform into individual LEGO bricks. All you have to do is bash them around a little and POW, transforming magic. And all in a limited amount of space.

Arctic Mobile Unit Sustains Life in Extreme Climates

I’ve sort of always wanted to honeymoon in the Arctic. Sure, there’s nothing to do outdoors, but that’s sort of the point, if you get my drift. *rawr* Designed to withstand an Arctic winter, the Arctic Mobile Unit provides life support for up to three people for 15 days. Perfect for a hump-tastic fortnight-long  procreation marathon. Gotta keep each other warm somehow, amirite? Link [via]

NES Games Gone Bad

Things have really changed since the days of NES game releases. Ok, maybe things haven’t changed that much. These wheatpaste game covers are the result of AltrdBst’s handy work. Taking us back to the good ole’ days when racism was acceptable and assassination was expected.

Mother-Son Family Guy Halloween Costumes

Halloween doesn’t have to be all about getting the shit scared out of you. Craftster user SonicsInk posted this awesome Mother-Son Family Guy costume, perfect for a comedy-filled Halloween. And remember, there is always the potential for some scariness. Stewie has been trying to kill his mother for years now. Victory will be his! I love the little details, such as the Brian doll humping Lois’s leg. Link [via]
