Even if you don’t regularly spend your birthday in and out of police boxes, you’ve got to hand it to Stacked Cakes for creating this ultra-realistic Dalek Cake, inspired by Doctor Who’s most reviled arch-nemesis, complete with moving and swiveling parts. Standing 22″ high and weighing nearly 20 kg, this cake could probably feed the entire planet of Skaro. And ...

“Hey, Artoo, you look a little different today.” “Who? Me?” “Yeah… you. Did you get a haircut?” “Uhhh… no, no, I’m on a diet. I’ve lost a few pounds.” “Ahh, that explains it. Wait… could you speak English yesterday?” “Ummm… yes?” “Oh, alright then. Carry on.” If Darth Vader ever wants to send a mole over to infiltrate the geniuses ...

As a native New Jerseyan, I can fully assure you that Jersey is nothing like it is portrayed in the show Jersey Shore. Not all of us go around lifting up our shirts and showing off our abs. Not all of us get drunk everyday of the week and hook up with random strangers. No, no. In fact, many of ...

Hey, here’s a novel idea. It’s a called a ‘book.’ And instead of a screen, you read the words off of pieces of paper which you ‘turn’ to continue the story. It sounds like a novelty item to me. But regardless, this book, “501 Things to Do with a Zombie,” lists a large number of activities you and your zombie ...

You just don’t know how he does it.� Some people just like to keep cool as much as they can. If possible, they prefer to be shivering rather than sweating.

Mixing retro gaming with classic sci-fi action, the Star Wars Space Invaders combo smooshes together everything I love about being a geek. I ...

Gary Oak is never going to respect you. That’s just a fact of life in cartoon world. Typically once you’re an antagonist, you’re always an antagonist. But what’s the next best thing? Having him envy you. Throw on your Pokeball shirt and Gary will be begging you to tell you where you got it. No matter how smart his father ...

Fans of Battlestar Galactica who don’t live in China have really been missing out. Apparently there is a whole different series featuring a “Saw-like” ending, while still maintaining its ability to be a “good-hearted tween comedy.” But frankly, I trust “Jom Monaghis of the Geiroit Free Press” over the San Francisco Chronicle (?) any day. Not to mention that this ...

As an iPhone owner myself, I can say that this is unequivocally untrue. If I were running OKCupid, I’d go back and check if iPhone users are also much more likely to pay for sex then other smartphone users. But regardless of my involuntary abstinance, OKCupid says it is so. They also say that the camera you use for your ...

I was playing Duck Hunt the other day for the first time in around 15 years and it made me realize just how great of game it really was/is. I don’t know if it was just because it played such a big role in my childhood, but the game is just painfully addicting, even without the awesome gun controller (I ...
