Super Mario Suits That Never Existed (But Should Have)
I’ve been content long enough. No longer will the propeller and penguin suits hold me over. I’m sorry Nintendo, there’s only so much I can take. CollegeHumor created an amazing assortment of Super Mario suits that never found a spot into the plumber’s wardrobe, but most certainly should have if Nintendo have had the balls to create some of these. You’ll have to hit the jump to see the rest, but I promise, it’s worth it. But hey, where the... Continue reading
Periodic Table of Elements Cake
Ok, we’ve become slightly obsessed with the Periodic Table of Elements, so sue us. I mean, aesthetically, the thing is just gorgeous to begin with. 118 gorgeous boxes of chemical goodness. The design just fits anywhere. It works. It’s beautiful. Hell, it even makes itself right at home on a damned cake. And it looks delicious to boot. Now you know what would be really cool, if each element square tasted like its elements name sake, but was totally non-fatal.... Continue reading
An Apple a Day Calendar Probably Doesn’t Really Keep the Doctor Away
Feeling a bit under the weather are we? Well I don’t think an apple would hurt, per se, unless it was recently dunked in a vat of E. coli or something, but something tells me the old wives tale “an apple a day keeps the doctor away” isn’t exactly 100% accurate. Not saying apples aren’t great for you, because I’m sure they’re packed full of nutrients. Which is why the Apple a Day Calendar isn’t all-together a bad idea. Just... Continue reading

The Classic Atari Joystick is Back in a Big Way
To this day my fingers still ache thanks to the arthritis (well it might as well be arthritis) I self-attribute to the many hours of joystick jamming to the tune of Atari. I remember some pretty intense finger cramping but I also remember some of the most fun hours I’ve ever spent, which is why I don’t run away screaming like a school girl when I hear about RetroThing’s newest cloned creation, the modernized, but essentially same-old Atari joystick. Sure,... Continue reading
A Lesson in Pokemon Anatomy
Meet Bulbasaur. Bulbasaur is a Pokemon. Despite their fictional existence, even these pocket creatures must have some form of anatomy, you’d figure, amirite? To answer your question, yes, Bulbasaur does in fact have internal organs, it’s just that part of them are actually just an assortment of vines and seeds. Hence the name ‘Bulb’asaur. Not too mention thick, strong bones. NO! NO! Don’t even go there. Not that bone! EVERYONE knows that Bulbasaur is hung like a weasel. Head over... Continue reading
Making Out in Public With Instant Personal Space
I’ve never been one to shy away from public displays of affection. My criminal record is proof of that. But there are some of you who shudder at the thought of even lying a big fat kiss on your hooker loved ones with strange eyes glaring at you. Veasyble creates instant personal space, cocooning you and your partner in a ruffly piece of white portability. Veasyble disguises itself as a purse so there’s no way of other people knowing what...

Ghosty Wall Lamp Is A Prized Trophy in the Pac-Man Household
And you thought you were making a statement with those taxidermy deer heads hanging from your hall. Psh. They don’t even light up! These Ghosty Wall Lamps are Pac-Man’s answer to the hunting trophy. Did I just hear a wakka of joy? I think I heard a wakka of joy. Link [via]
iPad Wall Concept Would Make The Library Cool Again
While one iPad might not offer the excitement and innovation that me and the fuhrer were hoping for, an entire wall of iPads could change the way we interface with the very walls that surround us. The iPad Wall concept incorporates multiple iPads into the very fabric of our library’s structure, creating a completely interactive experience you can actually touch. Imagine the possibilities. An interactive learning wall fully capable of multi-touch. Just find a way to hide all of those... Continue reading
Blow Up Couch Doubles as a Flotation Device
Tell me this wouldn’t have come in handy during Hurricane Katrina. Made out of dunnage bags, Malafor’s Blow Sofa is a mobile piece of furniture which lends its self to easy transportation thanks to its ability to flatten into two empty bags. Both inexpensive and easy to replace, the Blow Sofa appears to be just as comfy as an air mattress. Sort of like an oxygen-filled bean bag, without the beans. Not to mention it would double as an excellent... Continue reading
