Spider-Man Arrested

tumblr_kt2mh8ZtC61qz7vibo1_500

The backstory remains unclear, but as they say, a photo speaks 1000 words.

Maybe Toby Maguire has been beating up hookers again. He told me he was going to give that shit up. Damn you, Toby! Why can’t you just snort coke off the hookers asses like every other normal human-being. You have to resort to violence?!

Etre Touchy Gloves Keep You Warm and Connected

iphone-gloves

Not quite completely fingerless, but just enough so that you can access your touch screen phone, the Etre Touchy Gloves keep your hands as warm as possible, covering all of your fingers except the thumb and forefinger. Sure, it might be mustache-free, but that’s the price you have to pay.

With only two fingers missing warmth, you might look a little silly, but the utility of not having to remove your gloves, and not being pushed away from wearing gloves in the first place, is so worth it. The winter chill is harsh, but so is not having any access to my iPhone. At least I can save my other three fingers from frostbite.

Best Buy Leaks Black Friday Ad; Will Pass Out Tickets to Avoid Consumer Stampede

bestbuy

Best Buy’s Black Friday ad has leaked, which means it’s time to do some serious itinerary planning for the big day. See, I like me and my fiancee set up a full contingency plan based on what we want the most for us, then comes gifts for others. Come on, we need to set priorities people! Strategy is the name of the game on Black Friday.

So Best Buy has some moderately cool deals, especially in the video game department, but nothing mind-blowing. Though what might be notable is that Best Buy is not going to allow for anyone to get hurt this year because of their doorbuster deals. Apparently they don’t take “death by stampede” lightly. All doorbuster sales will be handled via tickets, which will be passed out up to two hours before the 5 am door openings. Hit the jump for a full-list of Black Friday Best Buy deals. Doorbusters are followed by an asterisk.

Inigo Montoya iPhone Case Makes You Feel Like Fred Savage

inigo-montoya-iphone-case

Imagine this. Let’s just say your name happens to be, oh, I don’t know, Fred Savage, and your grandfather happens to be a book obsessed Peter Falk impersonator. Say he walks into your bedroom one day when you’re coughing your ass off, I mean hacking up a fuckin’ lung, and he starts rambling about some six-fingered man and a rhyming giant. I know, you’d think to yourself, great, Grandpa has finally lost it and there’s nothing I can do about it. He’s probably going to murder me in my sleep and mom won’t care because she loves her batshit crazy father. Awesome.

But instead of murdering you, maybe Grandpa Pete just wants to gift upon you a miraculous piece of Princess Bride gadgetry. The Inigo Montoya Nametag iPhone case allows you to feel as though you too need to take revenge against the six-fingered man. Damn him and his extra limb of evil. Damn him to hell. But first, let’s make sure our iPhone doesn’t get scuffed up in the impending battle, shall we, hmmm?

The MacBook for Pirates

Soon to be quarantined after the nasty scabies epidemic, this MacBook for Pirates features a special Apple and crossbones logo design courtesy of Etsy user LastFuse (name thief that they be), selling their decal for only $2.50.

If the parrot, hat and eye patch didn’t tip them off, this decal sure will.

LEGO Minifig Wants To Take A Chomp Out Of Your Apple MacBook

minifig-macbook

I sort of feel bad. The LEGO minifig trying to eat my MacBook is clearly starving. Why else would you attempt to eat a perfectly good electronic? On the other hand, I’d much prefer my MacBook not have any further bite marks, barring the original bite mark of the Apple logo.

But no, I’ve had enough of this. My MacBook never did anything to warrant biting. Just go away minifig. You’re adorable and all, but enough’s enough. You can grab your own minifig MacBook decal for $14.

Free Wi-Fi is great and all, but it’s sort of expected these days, especially from big chains. I want to know what else they can offer me.

Did you know that McDonald’s isn’t only offering free Wi-Fi, but they’re also going to provide the new and exclusive Wi-Fri service. More fries in more places! This genius ad spot is sure to turn some hungry heads.

iPhone App Translates Baby’s Cry into English

crytranslator1

What are babies known for? Mainly pooping and screaming. That’s just the nature of the early human life. And who can blame them? The only problem is that the screaming is almost impossible to decipher through the human year. To us, it’s all just screaming. But apparently there are at least five different types of cries and the Cry Translator iPhone app claims it can distinguish between them all.

The Cry Translator helps decode the mysterious yiping of your newborn, dividing the scream’s cause into one of five basic categories: hungry, sleepy, annoyed, stressed, bored. It might be hard to believe, but the app claims it can “reduce overall infant crying.” And for $9.99, that’s a little piece of heaven for new parents.

Finally: Game Boy Inducted Into the Toy Hall of Fame

gameboy

And it’s in good company. Also being inducted to the Strong National Museum of Play’s Toy Hall of Fame this year is the ball. That’s right, the ball.

I always felt the Game Boy never got its true dues. The Game Boy was it. Still is “it” as far as I’m concerned. What other handheld console can you honestly say had more influence on the handheld gaming market than the Game Boy? I rest my case.

So you’ve lost your car… again. How many times have you forgotten where you parked? It happens to the best of us, but everyday? Come on, you should probably go visit a neurologist or something.

If he has trouble squeezing you in, here’s a nice back-up plan. The $.99 iPhone app Car Finder uses augmented reality to help you find your car. Car Finder guides you to your car using easy to follow walking instructions and even marks your spot with a little icon. Now all you have to do is remember to actually set the app before you leave your car.
