If Classic Movies Featured Smartphones…
Imagine a world where Citizen Kane, Casablanca, The Usual Suspects and Back to the Future featured smartphones. Watching classic cinema would be a hell of a different experience. Maybe the lack of smartphones is the reason they’re so classic in the first place? So sure, maybe Ingrid Bergman and Humphrey Bogart get a few more hours together, and yeah, Chuck Berry gets the credit he deserves before he even writes “Johnny B. Goode.” But is that all so bad? If... Continue reading
Transformers: The Boring Version
Megatron, such a naughty transformer. I wonder if Michael Bay would be up to the challenge of creating a literal Transformers movie. Come on, man, there’s definitly an opportunity for some major sparks and explosions, perhaps even some light electrocution. This version of Transformers might not be quite as exciting as the real deal, but it sure as hell is funnier. Plus, it’s Shia LeBeouf-free. Bonus! Link [via]
Pac-Man Couples Outfit: The Cherry is About Two-Feet Too High
With a strong desire to show up at Video Games Live in Vancouver with a fresh idea, Zenboy decided to go custom, creating an outfit for him and his wife that would be remembered and envied. Their Pac-Man Couples Outfit not only flaunts his wife’s assets, but forces its way into the psyche of every gamer attending the event. Here’s a tip to Zenboy: don’t you ever lose this girl. If she’s willing to do this, she’s willing to do... Continue reading
Guy Uses Custom Programmed Super Mario Game to Propose
Geek hero Adam Lynch decided to put a gamer spin on the traditional act of marriage proposal by creating his own custom programmed version of Super Mario World, titled Super Dez World, in honor of his fiancee Desiree. Saturday September 11th…he tells me he’s been playing around with programming video games. I think this is an awesome idea; he has been so busy at work that I have been trying to motivate him to do something that makes him happy.... Continue reading
Traditional Greeting Hoodie: Live Long and Prosper
The cold season is well on its way. It’s about that time of the year where all of us geeky infidels take to the web to go hoodie shopping. The Traditional Greeting hoodie by Threadless is the perfect fall outer garment for both the socialite and geek buried deep down in each and every one of us. When zipped up all the way the hand appears to be waving hello, but zip the hoodie down halfway and you’ve got an... Continue reading
Silly Bandz Rubber Band Bracelets for Geeks
I have to admit I was sort of worried when I discovered my teenage brother had been collecting butterfly-shaped rubber band bracelets. I had no idea that these Silly Bandz were actually a “thing.” Sort of like Tamagotchi and pogs were a “thing.” I have no idea what the fascination with animal shapes is. I guess it ‘s because animals are easily recognizable to everyone. I guess you need to be a part of that generation to “get it.” These... Continue reading
The Good, The Bad and the Dark Side: R2-D2 Stormtrooper Helmet
“Hey, Artoo, you look a little different today.” “Who? Me?” “Yeah… you. Did you get a haircut?” “Uhhh… no, no, I’m on a diet. I’ve lost a few pounds.” “Ahh, that explains it. Wait… could you speak English yesterday?” “Ummm… yes?” “Oh, alright then. Carry on.” If Darth Vader ever wants to send a mole over to infiltrate the geniuses over in the Rebellion, I think he just found his solution. An R2-D2 disguise for a Stormtrooper so good, even...

Super Mario Filing Cabinets
If you were shoved into the professional world kicking and shoving, it’s our opinion that you should at least be able to decorate your office how you see fit. These filing cabinets, inspired by Super Mario Bros. 2, fit right into our personal style. The geek nation might be more apt to stick to business conventions if we just had a little freedom to express our rebellious side. Who else you think is going to sort through that inbox? Stick...

Star Wars Yoga
I guess if you’re not gifted with a feel for The Force like I am, you have to rely on other methods of balancing your spiritual and physical prowess. It’s totally understandable. Not everybody can be a student of the Jedi ways. But it’s still important to keep on your toes. You just never know when your planet might be infiltrated by Imperial forces. Star Wars Yoga is a perfectly acceptable alternative for those less attuned in the ways of... Continue reading
Duct Tape Tie
Duct tape, long considered to be a tool of the gods, is useful for more than just fixing anything in need of being fixed. Duct tape fashion is not necessarily a new thing. I remember seeing girls in high school who thought they were particularly unique and artsy walking around with duct tape purses. I’m not a particularly crafty man myself. In fact, I’m more or less artistically challenged. So when I see something being sold that is traditionally only... Continue reading
