Have you ever played poker against a blind guy? And not a poker blind, I’m talking a dude that literally can’t see. It’s super effective. All you have to do is peer over his shoulder to scope out his hand. You’ll know just when to fold ‘em and when to hold ‘em. Luckily for me I feel no guilt. In fact, I feel no emotion… ever. Well, anger sometimes. But let’s not talk about that. You wouldn’t like me when I’m angry.

These White Playing Cards would be a smart choice for the blind player. The card color is so close to the background color that you have to take a pretty close look just to see what cards you have. Peering over the shoulder probably won’t work with this deck.

Check out this blurry photo. It features a white DualShock 3 controller that some guy apparently purchased at Walmart. This is the first time I’ve heard of a white DS3 for the PS3, let alone seen one. Can any of you guys confirm that Walmart is selling these? That packaging looks a bit off…

If you haven’t heard of the Das Keyboard, it’s a $100+ keyboard for your computer that features no writing on the keys. Thus, you’re supposed to become more efficient at typing, or so they claim. But what if we own a Mac? We don’t want some ugly navy blue keyboard near our precious Apple of California design. That’s why Steve Essell spraypainted his aluminum Apple keyboard completely white, completely obfuscating all the keys.

It does look pretty, but I’m not sure how usable it’d really be. Though I just realized I’ve typed this entire post without looking down at my keyboard. So maybe it’s for the best I shut up now.

It’s 11:30pm on a Friday night and you’ve just been put on bar-tending duty at the Kappa Phi house. A new keg has just been tapped and the girls over to the right are screaming for another pitcher of Natty Ice for the beer pong table. You snap out of it and realize you have a job to do.

The Pitcher. It can hold up to 60 ounces of frothy goodness. You quickly fill it full of beer and the five bright white LEDs on the bottom of The Pitcher immediately light up. The party goes crazy. The girls are screaming. One runs up to you and grabs said Pitcher and pours its contents all over her breasts. “This is the greatest day of my life.” you think to yourself. “Oh yeah, and it only cost me ten bucks. What a fucking awesome deal!” you soon-thereafter realize. Go ahead and take a load off, champ. You deserve it.

What better time to buy a Nintendo DS than on September 29th. Firstly, you’re getting a kick ass handheld gaming system. Second, $5 dollars of your purchase will go to the Susan G. Komen For the Cure foundation and aid in the fight against breast cancer. So, you can play your new found Nintendo DS and feel good doing it, too!

If you’re thinking the design is a little – well, feminine, I think that’s the point. But it’s not a problem! Slap some stickers over it. BAM! Now, you’ve got a custom decorated Nintendo DS and you also donated to charity. You’re a saint. A gaming saint.

When the word “Continental” comes to mind, I tend to think of a shit dive bar in Manhattan where you can get 5 shots of any liquor for $10. Anytime. Yes, it’s amazing and here’s a limited edition iPhone to match. It’s an all black iPhone 3G encrusted with a combination of black and white diamonds. Think that’s rich? Each is hand made and is of course, limited edition. Better have the loot to back up your style, though. Continental’s iPhone 3G is going for about $6500.

Would a piggy bank that can save up to $465.46 dollars encourage you to abandon the console RPG you’re playing in favor of hording your money in this game? Staring at it in astonishment, amazed by the fact that it’s a RPG on a piggy bank. You’ll mindlessly drop coins in it, one at a time, at a slow pace. Before long, you’ll realize that all the gear you bought for your character was for naught; you were playing nothing more than Tamagotchi with a bank account . You’ll want all your money back to go get some White Castle. Then you’ll never touch this machine again.

The Big Lebowski Urban Achiever Set. Featuring the Dude joined by Walter as they get ready for an intense bowling match with The Jesus. Each figure is 8″ tall and the set goes for $40 when they’re available in August.

Also, the Dude comes solo in a $25 dollar variation clad in his famous robe standing on top of the rug and it even includes a replica White Russian.

In the great words of the Big Lebowski: “What makes a man, Mr. Lebowski? Is it being prepared to do the right thing, whatever the cost? Isn’t that what makes a man?” The Dude replies, “Hmmm… Sure, that and a pair of testicles.”

This muscley-looking plastic meat head doesn’t want to kick sand in your face like all of those dudes at the beach. Oh, no. His motive is much more harmless. All he wants to do is light your room with his included Statue of Liberty-esque lamp, and hold onto your iPod or iPhone as it charges. Really, he’s a nice fellow.

Don’t let his rippling white biceps scare you. He’s not here to take advantage of your wife like the paperboy and the poolboy… and the pizza delivery guy… and possibly your brother. Nope. He’s here to lend a helping hand! Standing 12-inches tall, he’s no competition compared to your manly physique. You can buy him yourself for a whopping $200 (ouch!) or you can just, I dunno, get a flashlight and just keep your device on the desk while it charges. (more…)

Many people have tried the ear clip style of headphone. They are really interesting for about a half an hour, until you realize either that they are the reason you ears hurt, or that everyone is staring at those alien looking things in your ears. If the new iLuv i201 headphones can overcome those obstacles, they probably have a good change at making it in the market. Priced at $13, these headphones are great for the iPod user who wants to ditch their horrible stock headphones but does not want to commit to a $100 set of noise canceling, over the head style piece of machinery. They do look rather nice. They aren’t as bony as some other ear clip headphones are, the have some substance. Because they utilize the plug style ear pieces, they do a good job of blocking outside noise that you want to to leave you alone. Another nice little feature? You don’t have to worry about extensions if the cord is too short because it comes with an adjuster built into the cord. The come in either iPod white or black to match for fashionable Christmas gift.
