LARPer Food: Dungeons & Dragons Cake [Geeky Cake]
Wednesday, November 11th, 2009Oh, D&D nerds. You know I love* you the mostest. You’ve given me such joy with your LARPy goodness. Allow me to return the favor. By way of Claudia of Cakerific comes this delightful chocolate with strawberry cake and fondant Dungeons & Dragons cake for Remi’s birthday. What? You don’t know Remi? Sorry. I assumed [...]
Thanks, Japan: Sega Zippo Lighters
Thursday, October 29th, 2009Looks like Japan took a break from winning hot-dog-eating contests, drawing naked anime ladies, and fetishizing Hello Kitty to produce yet another ridiculous novelty: Sega Zippo lighters. ‘Cause why would you make a really small video game console that plays games when it can light cigarettes, instead?

Surprise!: Super Mario Master Chief Tattoo [Geeky Tattoo]
Monday, October 26th, 2009I can only think of two reasons to possibly get a Super Mario Master Chief tattoo like this one. 1) You really, really like video games, but ran out of epidermal real estate for all of your tattooed tributes.

I can only hope the Lords of the Internetubules can someday deliver unto me a confectionery geeky specimen that won’t [...]
Aim Lower: Nintendo Duck Hunt Tattoo [Geeky Tattoo]
Tuesday, October 6th, 2009Technically, you might call this Duck Hunt tattoo a “tramp stamp,” but that’s a bit harsh considering I have no evidence that this young lady is, indeed… a tramp. I can only extrapolate that she hasn’t been blessed with overwhelming powers of forethought or common sense. But a tramp? Who can tell. Personally, I don’t [...]
Geek Loot: Modern Warfare 2 Prestige Edition WITH NIGHT VISION GOGGLES
Wednesday, September 9th, 2009Thus far I’ve resisted the time- and money-suck that is the ownership of a latest-generation video game console. This is in spite of the lure of glorious new game cartridges (they’re still cartridges, right?) like The Beatles: Rock Band. (If I’m coveting a game where you pretend to play in a band of damn long-haired [...]
