Sort of like Yoda and Luke, but spiderier.

Because who hasn’t dreamed of enslaving Spider-Man and wearing him on your back. Does this make us a super villain?  At least a little bit?

How easy would have cheating been if we had all of the amenities that kids have these days? Forget about how easy it is just to text or call your classmates using your cellphone. Kids don’t even have to risk that much.

The Walkie Talkie Pens allows users to communicate like a spy, right through their pens. The design isn’t the most inconspicuous design of all time, but if you have an oblivious teacher, I don’t see there being a problem. (Note: If you’re like me, you originally read the product name as “Walkie Talkie Penis.” I so caught you.)

Looking for some much needed flash to accompany you in academia? The ultra-realistic Lined Paper Pencil Case is designed to look like a fresh piece of standard lined paper.

The only hazard I could find with this case is that it could easily be confused with a stray scrap of paper and chucked into the trash. Just keep an eye on what you’re writing on or your homework might wind up on your case.

Japanese students lucky enough to snatch a free iPhone 3G from their school shouldn’t get too excited just yet. Your universities mean serious business. The iPhone might just be a smart ploy to get your asses in school.

A Japanese university has started to employ a special school attendance app which keeps track of whether you show your face in class or not. So not only are the iPhones to be used for studying purposes, but you can bet your academic arse that officials will be checking GPS records as well. So, you know what you do? Switch off with your friend, once every other day, give your friend your phone to bring to class. Let them deal with it.

If only my father was half as cool as this guy. Pretty much every single day this father creates a new piece of art on his kids lunch bags. He uses his lunch break to craft these awesome drawings. Sometimes they are known characters, but most of the time the art is inspired by obscure cartoons or YouTube videos. He than takes a photo of the art and posts it on his Lunch Bag Art Tumblr blog.

Lucky friggen’ kids. Even in my 20s I wouldn’t mind having someone draw me some awesome lunch bag art, especially if they all had such awesome subjects as “Robot Dinosaurs That Shoot Beams When They Roar.” You just have to make sure no one tries to steal your food. After the jump you’ll find a few more of his more recent works.

Remember when you were young? Days filled with school, pencils and dog anuses? Ahh, the good old days. I remember it like it were yesterday. Wait a second, that’s because it was yesterday! Thanks to these Dog Pencil Sharpeners. With the help of a mighty pet rectum, our pencils are never dull.

The funny this is, we don’t even use pencils! It’s totally for sexual pleasure entertainment value and that old feeling of nostalgia. There’s nothing quite like reliving the days of anally penetrating our pets with sharp writing utensils. Especially when it only costs $14.99. And for you kitty fans, there’s a cat flavor as well. Check it after the jump. (more…)

This guitar strap fills me with geek envy. Renee of The Domestic Scientist made this cross-stitched guitar strap for her husband themed after the Atari classic Space Invaders. She is well versed in the art of geekery and even bakes her own 20 sided die cookies. That’s pretty geeky.

Next, she’ll be modding her husband’s guitar. We’re hoping she sticks to the Space Invaders theme she’s got going on. If not, well, there’s always Asteroids.

iPhone developer Steven Troughton-Smith updated his iPhone port of Doom to not only take advantage of the iPhone’s TV-out features but also utilize its touchscreen as an interface for the game. Why he decided to display the game on an old monochrome Apple II monitor is beyond me. We get it, Steven: you love Apple.

For now, there are no plans for adding TV-out to the public Doom build for the iPhone, although Steven says that he’s open to investigating the possibility. We just wanted to show you in order to get your hopes up and maybe encourage you to drop Steven a line persuading him to do what we all know is right.

I’ve been flaking at work, school and life ever since the release of Fallout 3. I snagged the collectors edition of the game and haven’t stopped playing since. One thing I can say about the game this early on is it’s tough scrounging for ammo, especially after you’ve wasted all of it on a giant fire ant’s skull. Now in regards to leveling and building up your character, it is much easier than Fallout 1 and 2. In the previous games, you were lucky if you came out with a well-rounded character that could do a little of everything. Well, either lucky or just weak. In Fallout 3, with the adjustments to the way tagged skills work and the many skill-related perks in the game, a character can easily be half-decent at every skill in the game.

Of course, most players like to focus on one skill and become a master of it. I’m just surprised how well a “jack-of-all-trades” character works in this game. If I were to make a similar character in Fallout 1, I wouldn’t get past the first radscorpion cave. Check back for screens of the goodies that come in the collectors edition, later today.

What do antique telephones and dragons have to do with one another? Fuck if I know, but this controller’s design is sporting both. In light of the holiday season, Microsoft has released red and green versions of it’s wireless 360 controller that come packed with a charge kit for $65 bucks, while Walmart is exclusively selling this hideous design bundled with a wired headset for $50.

If you’re a girl, in art school or both then maybe this controller design would appeal to you. As for myself, well, I’d rather fuck a monkey with the Ebola virus than be caught playing games with this thing in my hands.
