I’m not much of a thrill seeker in real life, but when it comes to my dreams, I’m a regular Evel Knievel. Jumping from planes, swallowing knives, holding hands with Lindsay Lohan. Just about any life-risking activity you can imagine. But in reality, I can barely ride a roller coaster without having a panic attack. So, I’m thinking that maybe ...

Taking inspiration from my two favorite geek icons of all time, Flickr user mrksaari created these real-life Super Mario zombie cosplay costumes. Princess Peach looks like she’s holding her own just fine, so I’m pretty sure the Mario clan has a new objective. And I’ll give you a hint. It starts with “b” and ends with “rains.” While mushrooms were ...

So you’ve had your eye on a certain special female airport security guard for quite a while now, but every attempt at making conversation has ended in utter defeat. Yeah, right, she has “work to do.” We’ve heard that one before. But she’ll have no choice but to fondle us now. Suitcase Stickers add a healthy hint of that bad ...

Troika’s POV Ping Pong Bats offer something previously only available to connoisseurs of ping pong themed comic books (is there such a thing?). Visual sound effects. Not quite sound at all really, but more a descriptive word which not only adds a touch of zing to the game but helps the hearing impaired understand that there are potentially elements of ...

My brother and I love playing that Volkswagen punching game when we’re cruising down the road. Well, more like my brother punches me and I grimace. I’m truly terrible at it. So it’s more like a one-sided slugfest then a true game. Black one! Red one! Inside out one! Wait… huh?! AlmapBBDO’s newest advertisement for the Volkswagen Fox turns the ...
