TAG RESULTS FOR: real life

Are you down with TMNT? Yeah, you know me. 23-year-old geekette Brittney Schneck transformed her 1994 Dodge Caravan into a real-life Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles van, which I expect she’ll be using to retrieve lots and lots of pizza take-out. Schneck hand-painted and stenciled the exterior colors and fabricated the ray gun, spoiler and other add-ons from scratch, but the transformation wasn’t merely cosmetic. My future wife (whether she knows it or not) also added a new radiator, brakes, axles... Continue reading

What would you do if every time you walked through your backyard there was a chance that a WILD ABRA could APPEAR? I doubt you’d proposition it like this guy. But then again… Flickr user flickering_nostalgia brings Pokemon to life with with interesting photography of Pokemon toys cleverly positioned in the rough. Snapping photos of Pokemon doing what they do best. Poke-a-ing!

So, I’m just going to assume that the Disney Lion King’s Timon and Pumbaa were based off of this real life pair. Life is better that way. Well, you know what they say: “Hakuna Matata.” Ahhh, come on Pumbaa, not in front of the kids. Link

Work it, ladies! Like a pwny, like a pwny! Nothing makes me sweat more then setting up a real life version of one of my favorite retro games, Tetris. Nothing else makes my short-shorts run-up my butt cheeks quite as much. Here’s how this real life analog version of Tetris works. With two people playing, one on either side of the apparatus, the pair works on creating Tetris-like patterns, just like in the real game. So you really can be... Continue reading

Meg Griffin’s doppelganger has been discovered, and she apparently resides in some random bank, or post office, or some sort of venue featuring tiny safes. But who care’s about the safes! It’s Meg from Family Guy in the flesh! And there certainly is quite a bit of flesh. Should I be embarrassed that I’d still hit it? Nahhhh. No shame in my game. Ohhh, you know I’m kidding. I’d wine and dine her and then take her for a stroll on the... Continue reading

Imagine if we could actually see the cursors being used by everyone checking out Google Maps. The world would be flooded with flags and cursors. Just completely flooded. 4chan would make sure of that. But since we can’t see every single cursor, we’ll have to settle for just a single spectacle. The Computer Mouse Cursor Bench, officaly called the Urban Cursor project, provides a taste of what could have been, if Google had decided to use a different cursor method... Continue reading

How in the hell did he score a hot piece of ass like Olive Oil? Rick Baker composed this artistic rendition of what Popeye would look like IRL. *shudder* Scary. Link

I grew up with the Peanuts, even if they were way before my time. My dad had all of his old Charlie Brown comic strip books and I read through all of them hundreds of times. So, I was sort of well acquainted with Charlie Brown as a kid. Tim O’Brien’s untooned Charlie Brown shows what the wishy-washiest bald kid in the world would look like if he were a living, breathing person. The result, although terrifying, is ultimately just...

They should have used a real ape. And a real princess. And a real superhero plumber (not you Joe). Video after the jump.

Designer Marc Owens came up with a machine that prints out little sheets of paper with a date-stamp and time-stamp. Write in your own message, slap it on a street sign and boom: instant tweet. It’s like Twitter for people without friends. Something like that. Link
