If having chubby plumbers jump on your head sounds like a good time, the Goomba-inspired Head Stomp Beanie is the perfect headware for you to rock this winter. Cuz, ya know, it’s not getting any warmer. Or is it? Duhn-duhn-duhn. It’s absolutely frigid out here in Jersey. I hope some of you readers live in a warmer climate. You lucky ...

So what’s even cooler than playing with a scientific calculator? I know, not much. But apparently the magic happens once you gut the calculator’s innards (shame! blasphemy!) and insert, wait for it, a fully-functional Game Boy! Hooray. Rejoice. All is forgiven. FYI, I have no idea what a derivative of a function is. I just thought it sound math-y. Link ...

No doubt about it, Batman: Arkham Asylum was one of the best games of the past decade. Batman’s ninja/detective skills were perfectly bent together to form an awesome action title.

Brought to you by the letter F (for fucking freezing), Christmas Light Hero brings the enjoyment of sitting snugly on a warm couch playing Guitar Hero to the next logical destination, the great outdoors. The entire house is rigged to produce a Guitar Hero-driven light show. Hitting those hammer-off notes is much harder when you’re shivering like an epileptic. Hit ...

Now, this is my kind of Craigslist ad. But honestly, that PPS is ridiculous. How can you expect no nerds? That’s like throwing an anime convention and banning artists, or even more ridiculous, banning costumes. Link [via]

I thought I had reached the epitome of geekdom when I managed to simultaneously play my NES system and build a LEGO creation, but man, I was wrong, as it usually the case.
