Thursday, October 22nd, 2009For years I’ve made offerings–i.e., small children sent to the heavens via weather balloon–to the Interweb Gods in hopes of a pixel-based delivery of a Star Wars cake in the form of an eviscerated tauntaun. Years. Finally, by way of reader Tamara N., I received this tauntaun groom’s cake created by Cake Nouveau for the [...]
My Eyes Hate Me: Hello Kitty Boba Fett Tattoo [Geeky Tattoo]
Wednesday, October 21st, 2009So, for this Hello Kitty Boba Fett tattoo–courtesy(?) of Hello Kitty Hell–everyone can blame Lori, who said on the GWS fan page yesterday: Boba Fett makes everything awesome. I’d even dig a Boba Hello Kitty. How do your words taste now that you’re eating them, Lori? Hmm? Yeah. Take your medicine. The burning sensation just [...]
Geek Nirvana!: Metal Gear Solid Cake [Geeky Cake of the Week]
Tuesday, October 20th, 2009I think Teri is trying to force me into retirement.

I can only hope the Lords of the Internetubules can someday deliver unto me a confectionery geeky specimen that won’t [...]
Indigestion, Sir?: Kuato Costume from Total Recall [Cosplay]
Monday, October 19th, 2009So, no… this otherwise-fantastic costume of Kuato from Total Recall doesn’t feature any animatronic motion. But if you hold his little pink hands, you can see your future. So there’s that. Photo credit: Jon Dragonette. Source If this Kuato costume that showed up at Alex Pardee‘s art show has stupefied you with its artfully-crafted grotesqueness, [...]
Questionable: ALF Tattoo [Geeky Tattoo]
Sunday, October 18th, 2009Quite a tattoo. Let’s all agree: no one should like ALF this much. Although, apparently, the Germans do. Not just “I’m going to permanently tattoo ALF’s face into my leg” like him, but “let’s release an ALF movie into theaters” like him. Yikes, Germany. Via Ugliest Tattoos (naturally). Find the Alien Facehugger Plush on ThinkGeek [...]
Twitter Link Roundup – Week Ending October 17, 2009
Sunday, October 18th, 2009Hm. This sampling of links from the past week definitely smells faintly of “trippy.” (I.e., burnt pineapples and incense.) You should get all strung out on my Twitter profile and/or the GWS Facebook Page. Imperial AT-AT rodeo. (Speaking of blaming Japan’s insanity.) http://bit.ly/34qoE Wowza. Where the Wild Things Are carved pumpkin. (via @slashfilm) http://bit.ly/xl4mO Star [...]
