Talk about a cool kid's room set up. One amazing parent made this cool Narnia-themed playroom for her 9 year-old daughter where the only entrance is through the wardrobe. I want one for myself; what a great place to write Neatorama articles!

The premiere of Mad Men was last night, but for those of you who can't get enough of Don Draper, Aaron Saucier offers a great series of jewelry based on the show. For the ladies, there are necklaces, for the gents, the cufflinks and tie clips are quite classy.

Artist Victor Hugo is a big fan of Iron Man and Pixar, which is why it made perfect sense for him to create this delightful mash up of the two. Now wouldn't that be a fun, whimsical movie?

Otters are known for their amazing powers of deduction...no wait, that's Sherlock. It's hard to tell because they look so darn similar.

First, Zeon told us about the homeless people serving as wifi hotspots, now there are reports that FedEx hired people to serve as power chargers. Sure it's convenient for festival attendees, but to me, it sounds like another piece of evidence that the machines are trying to take over humans.

Resident Evil Revelations looks kinda tame compared to the last games...but maybe I'm just desensitized to zombie cat violence by now.

I would love to see this crossover and the best part is that it seems like something Adventure Time would even consider taking on at some point.

I don't know where this taco proposal actually comes from, but you have to wonder if she actually was into the idea or was turned off by the idea of a romantic gesture based on something available at Taco Bell.

This was the first year that the WonderCon (Comic-Con's little sister) was held in Anaheim instead of San Francisco, unfortunately, that didn't mean that the weather was any better. In fact, it was pouring the better part of the weekend. While the poor weather and smaller size of the convention meant there were far fewer cosplayers than at Comic-Con, the diversity and quality of the costumes was definitely impressive. Here are a few of the best costumes as photographed by Zeon and myself. There are always a lot of Batman costumes at any convention, but with The Dark Knight Rises coming out this summer, there were even more than usual -including this sexy group of cosplayers. There was also a matching Harley Quinn, but I didn't get a good picture of her. Sorry boys. Cat Women and Riddlers were particularly popular at the convention. Harley Quinn was also a pretty popular costume, which is interesting since they still haven't put her character into a movie yet. Nolan, maybe you should take note of that fact. Cross-play was also a pretty big trend and this adorable Robin and Green Arrow did a great job at adapting their costumes accordingly.
I don't know about you ladies, but I could sure use a great purse like this Boba Fett one by Catherine Penfold-Waxman. Don't like Star Wars? Well, she's got a few great Doctor Who designs as well.

That's one heck of a way to advertise your local orchestra. The creations were created by art director Bjoern Ewers to show the true beauty of the instruments lies on the inside.

Hipster Branding is one artist's re-envisioning of some of the world's most famous logos. While a few of the designs aren't bad, some of them are just plain obnoxious.

Divorces are a messy business, which is why it never hurts to work to divorce-proof your marriage. Going by the statistics, there are a number of simple things you can do to help reduce your risk of having your marriage ending. Unsurprisingly, not smoking can help, but strangely, so can being an optometrist and having sons instead of daughters.
