Screenshots Released for the New Mortal Kombat

I’m not even going to give this newest extension of the Mortal Kombat series the label of sequel. I’m looking at this as a reinvention. The new Mortal Kombat name is being designed as an ode to everything that was great about the original series. Featuring recreations of the original arenas we came to know so well, as well as a reunion of our favorite characters. These newly received screenshots make me want to dig up my Sega Genesis and...

The Suitcase Picnic Table for Impromptu Outdoor Get-Togethers

‘Tis the season for impromptu picnics and outdoor activities. The problem I have is that most of the times I throw the idea out there for a picnic, I get a lot of disgruntled people saying they’d rather be inside with a comfortable place to sit then be sitting on the dirty ground with bugs crawling all over them. OK, look pussies. Since your precious buttocks can’t accept the fact that nature is part of a great picnic, I’ve got... Continue reading

Star Wars Cupcakes Are From an Oven Far, Far Away

Including all of your favorite Star Wars characters (except Han. Carbonite wasn’t deemed edible enough. But really, whoops!), these Star Wars Cupcakes by Flickr user Iclllc are even worthy of entering the confines of my sacred stomach. For free. Feel honored, I charge tapeworms $1500 a month for that honor. Or my doctor does. I just get to maintain this skinny figure. Everybody wins! With just a hint a dash a whole fricken crapload of Star Wars minifig inspiration, these... Continue reading

Pistol Bluetooth Headset: I Swear, I’ll Do It… I’ll Answer the Phone!

No, it’s not a suicide attempt. No, it’s not a cry for help either. It’s a phone call. Why the hell would I want to off myself? Just look at this headset. Would someone who owns such an awesome headset really want to kill themselves? It just doesn’t make sense. Mike Haeg designed this Pistol-shaped Bluetooth Headset to perform pretty much exactly like a real gun, except without all of those painful bullets. Put the barrel in your ear and...

Listen to Howard Stern on the iPhone

For whatever reason, the official Sirius XM iPhone app doesn’t include Howard Stern’s satellite radio stations. For many subscribers who pay almost exclusively for Howard, this has been quite the annoyance. The free iPhone app Music Dock delivers all of the Sirius XM content, including Howard, Opie & Anthony and Oprah, to your iPhone. All you need is your Sirius or XM Premium log-in information. I’ve tested out the app and it works completely as advertised. Actually, there are a... Continue reading

Halo For the Atari 2600

Halo 2600 goes far beyond any other retro gaming mock-up we’ve ever seen. For one, its actually playable in cartridge form on an actual Atari 2600. Secondly, and even cooler, you can play the game online with a little help from emulation. Developed by Ed Fries, the once vice president of Microsoft’s game publishing division who assisted in the signing of Bungie Software to a first-party development deal with Microsoft, Halo 2600 was both a return to form and a...

iPhone 4 Cases That Actually Look Like Real Food

Strapya has done it again. And by it, I of course mean they designed a phone accessory that looks almost exactly like real food (I’m pretty sure if you look up “it” in the dictionary, that’s the proper definition). Not a crafted felt case, but a goodness to honest realistic food case. Available in eggs with bacon, bento, tonkatsu and yakisoba varities (don’t feel bad, I don’t know what the last two are either), these iPhone 4 cases would almost... Continue reading

Facebook Hack Prank Fills Me With Turkish Delight

A pack of brilliant Turkish pranksters decided to use Facebook’s use of crowd-sourced linguistics for their own benefit. A group of clever hackers congregated on the Inci Sözlük message board and launched a full-scale attack on the Turkish branch of Facebook’s language translation interface, which relies on crowd-sourcing to improve the lingustics of the non-English Facebook translated pages. Hilarity ensued. The word “Like” for example was substituted for another word that rhymes with Luck but begins with an F. The... Continue reading
