I haven’t watched Nickelodeon since about the time Ahh! Real Monsters came on the air, but I still get a hint of nostalgia everytime I hear the channel name or see some of their iconic green slime. Hours and hours of watching Doug, Rugrats and Rocko’s Modern Life will do that to you.

Dell and Nickelodeon have partnered to introduce the Inspiron Mini Nickelodeon Edition netbook PC designed for kids. Stocked with an Atom N270 processor, 1GB RAM, up to 160GB hard drive, a 10.1-inch LCD display, WiFi, Bluetooth and a 1.3 Megapixel webcam (the webcam is probably a bad idea), the notebook is designed to look like it has been slimed.

Toys sure have evolved over the years. It went from the basic teddy bear, to Creepy Crawlers (remember those fuckers?), to Mighty Max to the dog that vomits slime. Come August, toy company Mega House, a subsidiary of Bandai, will ship “Biri Biri Kaze Hiki Wanko” or “Shocking Sick Puppy”, a Japanese toy guaranteed to disgust many parents out there.

It plays like the classic game, Operation. Reach into the pooch’s mouth and grab the germs. Touch the slime and your ass gets shocked back into the Stone Age. Collect the most germs, you win. A simple, yet, disgustingly awesome game.
