Cry for Help: Nerd Recites All Original Star Trek Episode Titles from Memory

Thursday, February 25th, 2010

Yep. This guy set a world record for naming all 79 episodes of the original Star Trek TV series in broadcast order* in 1 minute, 38.9 seconds.

Which, coincidentally, is the world record for the amount of time it has taken one man to guarantee a lifetime of cold, penis-atrophying celibacy.**

Nick and Anna B. of Bel Air, Maryland, don’t screw around when it comes to battling the Snowpocalypse. Nick, an engineer, handmade everything on this fire-breathing dragon, “including his fiery red eyes and his ferocious roaring.”

Hope for Mankind: Most Grateful Kid Ever Gets an Xbox 360

Sunday, December 27th, 2009

I have bemoaned many-a-time the horrific extent to which parents spoil their small children with outrageous gifts and birthday cakes. For one, none of these kids have been alive long enough to have done anything to deserve a $500 cake. (Cure a communicable disease and we’ll talk about a pizza party, kid. Maybe.)
And two, what [...]

Sopor-Terrific: Star Wars Millennium Falcon Bed

Sunday, December 13th, 2009

Kayla Kromer’s custom-made Millennium Falcon bed comes complete with a “smuggler’s” pouch, headlamps, and space in the cockpit for action figures/stuffed animals/warp drive controls. But no space chess in the cargo hold.
