This NES Bed Set Would Motivate Me to Make My Bed Every Morning

Mother is going to be so proud of me. When she comes down in the basement in the afternoon to make sure I’m still alive, she’ll have no need to worry about me making my bed in the morning/afternoon/early evening anymore. If I had a bed like this, I wouldn’t even sleep in it. I’d grab my Shark Attack Sleeping ...

Star Wars Wampa Cake

Complete with a severed arm and cherry preserve “blood and guts” filling, the Wampa Birthday Cake celebrates my favorite amputated snow monster on the entire planet of Hoth. Buttercream frosting and the DIYer’s mom’s patented sour cream pound cake recipe make this Wampa considerably more tasty than the real thing, but not nearly as fun to cuddle with. Alicia Policia ...

Slice Your Apples on the MacBook Cutting Board

Until Steve Jobs decides to integrate cutting board technology into the iPad, I guess we’ll have to settle for this MacBook Cutting Board for all of our food preparation needs. The apple tree wood cutting board is designed to look like a unibody MacBook. Apple pie, fresh apple slices, apple scones, Apple iPods, they all have to start somewhere. You ...

Imagine the lung capacity needed to get games working on this thing! The NES Coffee Table, made by a guy named Matt Borgelt, is a full-on replica of the original Nintendo Entertainment System, complete with a fully-functional extremely over-sized controller.

The Light That Only Turns On If You Blow In Its Ear

I never understood the whole “blowing in the ear” form of flirtation. I’ve both blown into ears and had my ears blown into and from first hand experience, ear blowing is neither exhilarating, nor an effective form of sexual coercion. I’m guessing its just one of those things that old time TV shows and movies used as a euphemism for ...

Portal Bookends

How would you like to be able to travel through such classic literature as Huxley’s Brave New World, Asimov’s Foundation, Palahniuk’s Fight Club and… wait a second… The Gay Science? How’d that get in there? I swear that’s not mine. That sort of thing ain’t my bag, baby. These Portal Bookends were result of one man with access to a ...

Roly-Poly Light is Physically Unable to Bow Down to Your Abuse

Much like the Weebles that wobble, but don’t fall down, the roly-poly light will never stay flat on the ground, no matter how hard you try or how badly you beat it. My other lamps never really put up a fight, which was fun at first and made me feel pretty macho, but got pretty boring relatively quick. Not only ...

Wall Tentacle Adds Port Hole of Fear to Your Home’s Poop Deck

It’s a tragic tale. Dreaming of a life on the sea but too prone to sea sickness to pursue the dream any further than the confines or your mind. While it’s true that for people with a poor equilibrium, sea life is impractical, but there are ways to live the seaman’s life without living on the sea. The Wall Tentacle, ...

A Lamp Shade Made Out of Aviator Sunglasses

I’m a fan of aviator sunglasses. And it’s not because I’m trying to fit in with a particular douche bag clique. I’m beyond that. I just like the way they fit my face. I admire their style. The Celebrity Lamp by Deeply Madly Living is a light source with a twist. The lamp shade is made out of 40 pairs ...

Circadian Sleep Clock Refreshes Your Schedule

Humans, all animals really, run on an internal clock known as a circadian rhythm. Well, maybe I should say that humans SHOULD run on a circadian rhythm. A proper schedule becomes harder and harder to maintain as we work more, sleep less or just sleep at the wrong times. Since our circadian rhythm is governed mostly by the Sun, the ...
