Metal Gear Solid Steed: My Little Solid Snake

By Great White Snark | August 31, 2010

I’ve shared plenty of custom My Little Ponies before, but there are so many littering the internets now that Pony-fatigue has set in. So I’m getting pretty selective about which ones I post.

My Little Solid Snake

So, why then, would I post My Little Solid Snake by Fenrienne on deviantART (aside from its obvious artistic merits)?

Two words: PONY BEARD. (With simulated smoking action!)

That’s No Moon(Pie)!: Star Wars Pie

By Great White Snark | August 31, 2010

Cathy at olds ninety-eight made this clever blueberry Star Wars pie in the course of “cooking lessons” for her little boy, Danny:

Danny’s most recent request was to bake some doodleberry pie. Obviously, we didn’t have any doodleberries handy. We went to Costco and bought blueberries instead.

Doodleberry?

Um, first on the docket for Danny’s cooking lessons: the merits of not cooking with poop.

Which Horn Is More Magical?: Unicorn vs. Narwal Tattoo [Geeky Tattoo]

By Great White Snark | August 30, 2010

The internet would tear itself apart trying to figure out who* to root for.

Unicorn vs Narwal Tattoo

Via Ugliest Tattoos, who wishes this guy luck getting laid once he’s out of his early 20s, when “lack-of-forethought” and “random acts of stupidity”  stop being attractive qualities.

* If I’m going to end the sentence with a preposition anyway, then why bother making the rest of the sentence all grammatically-correct with an objective “whom”? Nah, I’d much rather make the sentence more “natural” for the sake of the punchline. And then deflate the punchline with long side-notes about grammar. (MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.)

It’s Alive(ish)!: Star Wars Yoda Cake [Geeky Cake]

By Great White Snark | August 30, 2010

Instructables user tchitwood created this absolutely uncanny likeness of Yoda out of red velvet cake, Rice Krispie treats (for the ears) and fondant.

Oh, and by the by, she accomplished this on her first attempt at making a sculpted cake.

Which totally reminds me of the time I created cold fusion on my first try, using nothing but half-empty aerosol cans of whipped cream and a magnifying glass.

Yeah. I know my humble feat of scientific marvel completely diminishes tchitwood’s efforts and everything, but please… see if you pull yourself from your completely-merited awe of me for just long enough to appreciate her work.

The Traveler Has Come!: Ghostbusters Lego Diorama

By Great White Snark | August 27, 2010

If I had* a Lego Diorama Room in my house, it would look a hell of a lot like this.
