Geek fashions are pretty popular these days, but these high-fashion dresses based on some of the most popular websites around take the concept to a whole new level. Granted, you probably wouldn't want to actually wear any of them the way they are right now, but with a few tweaks, most of them would make great formal wear.
Admit it, while you really like gaming, your real passion is new age music. While you might never get to actually play video games with Yanni himself, this great controller will at least bring you one step closer to living the dream.
Watch out, I'd hate for you guys to slip on the pile of drool I just made while staring at this picture of sweet potatoes covered in marshmallow fluff, cranberries and pecans. It's a Thanksgiving explosion in your mouth that's still suitable as a side order for your turkey burger. Excuse me, I suddenly have some serious munchies.
No, I'm not talking about Peewee's Big Adventure being remade with a penguin in the lead role, although that would be pretty darn awesome. Unfortunately, this is a true tale involving a tiny fairy penguin being stolen from the zoo and chased by both sharks and dogs before being rescued and returned to his home.
On Saturday, three young men reportedly broke into the park and caused all sorts of mishchief, like swimming in the dolphin tank. On their way out, they nabbed the diminutive Dirk, for good measure. Their time with the small bird was apparently short lived, as the group are said to have released Dirk into the nearby Broadwater waterway.
The next day, a couple passing by the area saw Dirk being chased by a shark, which are known to swim around the Broadwater area. To make matters worse, a dog on the shore kept harassing the little bird when he tried to come ashore. The couple alerted SeaWorld officials who quickly responded, bringing the exhausted bird back to his home.
That's a serious adventure for such a small little critter, especially one raised in a zoo and not accustomed to the harsh realities of being a wild creature.
"Come along children, just come on. No, you can make it. Your brothers and sisters were able to get over the curb you just aren't trying hard enough."
"But moooom, it's too high. Can't we just let this stranger help us?"
"Is that what you're going to do whenever you're in a jam, just wait for a human to help you? You know, that's how your Uncle Arnold ended up becoming duck a la orange."
"But moooooooooom, we can't reach."
"Ok, fine, let the human help you, but don't come crying to me when they want to turn you into dinner for something called Christmas."
Since the zombie apocalypse hasn't quite happened yet, artist Andrew Martin of Monster Caesar Studios went ahead and fabricated this lovely zombie head wall mounted trophy to hang on your wall in the meanwhile. Of course, if when the undead start walking the streets you really ought to take it down, not only because it's silly to brag about accomplishments you haven't actually completed, but also because you won't want to offend the new neighbors across the street who are great, other than that habit of constantly moaning "brains" at three in the morning. For now though, it's certainly a nice home accessory.
Just because dinos had pea-sized brains doesn't mean they didn't know the difference between right and wrong. That's why the dinosaur Avengers were so critical to keeping the streets safe, at least, metaphorically speaking.
For those of you who can never get enough fun Flash games to play when no one's looking at you at work, may I recommend Snowball, a fantastic Flash pinball game that captures the true spirit of the game while adding in some fun elements that are impossible for a real pinball machine to incorporate.
They might not be real dresses, but as a geek gal, I sure wish some ambitious fashion designer would make these adorable drawings by illustrator Robin Kaplan into a reality. In the meanwhile, I guess we'll have to appreciate the great drawings of girls wearing dresses inspired by Doctor Who, Star Wars, Pokemon and more for what they are.
I'll be honest, I have no idea what's going on with this little furball, but whatever it is, it's pretty darned cute. Of course, if you know what he's up to, let us know in the comments.
A BLT with Baconaise still too devoid of bacon for you? Why not enjoy your lunch with a side of BLT Lays? For those who can't eat sandwiches because they're gluten free (like me), it's also a great alternative to that delicious deli treat.
A reader of Geekologie sent in this great story of how a terrible Edward tattoo obtained during a bet eventually became an awesome Rufio tattoo in what is arguably the greatest tattoo portrait cover up ever.
"OK, so this guy I used to know recently made a deal with his friend that they would choose each other's tattoos and they would each get theirs while being blindfolded. He took his blindfold off to see this -- Edward, from Twilight! Yikes! So later he had it covered up with RUFIOOOO!"
OH HELL YES. I asked my little lady to turn the pictures into an animated gif, but the angles make it look like there's a colored part in Edward that doesn't appear in Rufio. Like I said, that's just the angle.
I know many of you don't like tattoos to start with, but you have to admit, if you're going to get a tattoo on a bet, this cover up is probably one of the best outcomes you could hope for.
Silly rabbit, you got over the fact that Trix aren't made for you and just moved on to yet another food not made for you. Bunnies and bananas, now that's just plain goofy, and I'm not even going into the fact that you're eating it while being held like a baby drinking a bottle. You poor confused thing.
No, it's not about LOL cats per se. Instead it's about Ben Huh, the genius behind I Can Has Cheezburger, FAIL Blog, Know Your Meme and all those other memetastic sites. The show will be on Bravo and is tentatively called Huh? The show will focus on Huh and his life at work and some of his relationship drama (the two are pretty closely related, given as how his wife is the head editor over at I Can Has Cheezburger.
Sure games like Minecraft and Little Big Planet let you build your own worlds these days, but there's still something to be said about bringing that video game world into our reality and interacting with it like these guys did.
