Wednesday, July 14th, 2010Sure, I could see how some folks would pony up for a Comic-Con-exclusive $40 plush Hellboy. But for one with the face of a cartoon Jack Skellington and the feet of a baby koala? You toy-collecting geeks will have to explain this one to me.

Oh, Sexism, You Old Scamp: Gamer Geek Wedding Cake Topper
Tuesday, July 13th, 2010Even half-assed gamer geeks will be able to spot what’s wrong with the scene on top of this wedding cake after a second or two.

But if it turns out the only legacy her “career” leaves behind takes the form of really-cleverly-edited “Tik Tok” music videos based on geeky properties like Back to the Future (and Star Trek), then humanity might just restore [...]
Sucks to Be You, Zombies: Rocket-Propelled Chainsaw Launcher Schematic
Tuesday, July 13th, 2010The rocket-propelled chainsaw launcher. Which seems like a terribly logical way to avoid second-hand smoke if you’re ever hunting a zombie Audrey Hepburn. (Please, oh, please let there be an angry nerd who comments on this post to explain why this could never work.) Via technabob, knows why this could never work. And it starts with [...]
