The Top Ten Cutest Critters of 2011



Cute Overload is the internet Mecca for all things cute, which is why their list of top ten cutest critter photos might just be one of the best  end of the year lists you'll see this month. While many of the pictures were featured on Neatorama over the last year, not all of them have been...yet.

Man Spends $16,000 On An In-Game Sword



Oh, and did I mention that the game hasn't even been released yet?

Developers of the upcoming game Age of Wulan thought that auctioning off exclusive items for their new MMORPG would be a good way to help promote it. Something tells me they weren't expecting someone to throw down an amazing $16,000 on a virtual sword.

Do You Want to Stop The Watchmen Prequel?

Well, you probably won't actually be able to, but if you really are opposed to the Watchmen prequel, you can always take a stand and  sign the petition to get the movie newly proposed comic book stopped before it starts.

While there's always a good chance the movie publication won't get completed, something tells me a petition with less than 300 signatures won't have much to do with it.

These two critters are rescued animals that now reside over at the Hillside Animal Sanctuary. Aren't they adorable together?

Doctor Who Crew Does The Proclaimers


(Video Link)

I don't know about any of you, but to me, David Tennant was the best doctor ever and the cast and crew that worked on the show during his reign were also some of the best the show has ever seen. That's why I simply adore this great video showing everyone who helped work on the show singing The Proclaimers at the close of his last filming session.

Now That's How You Get Extra Tips



Most people who want extra tip money try to write something clever on their jars, but the geniuses over at Depanneur, a grocery store in Brooklyn, know just hot to get the dollars moving: make it a contest between two geek icons. Personally, I'd give my money to Alfred because he needs it more, but that's just me.

A WOW Deathwing Cake



There are plenty of great video game cakes out there, but this one "takes the cake" when it comes to epicness. Just look at how devilishly detailed this World of Warcraft Deathwing looks.

The Cutest New Years Babies Ever



New Year's babies are considered to be good luck, but when you're as adorable as these baby leopard tortoises, you certainly don't need to worry about luck. These little cuties were born at the Zoo Pragu, three on New Year's Eve and three after midnight on New Year's Day. While they're tiny enough to fit all six in one woman's hand right now, they won't be for long...these guys will grow to up to 120 pounds each. At least their keepers will have plenty of photos to remember them in their infancy.

Another Great Geek Girl Bra



Back in August, I showed you guys the Angry Birds bra, but for those gals who prefer old school games to those available through smart phones, you might prefer this fun Pac Man bra instead.

When 80's Cartoon Characters Star In An Urban Outfitters Catalog



Chilean artist Fabian Ciraolo thought it would be fun to show what 80s cartoon characters looked like when dressed up in fancy retro clothes. Is it just me or do the hipsterific outfits and pouty faces of the models make most of the pictures look like pages from an Urban Outfitters catalog set in a cartoon world?

Amazing Hand-Crafted Nazgul Armor



The amazing prop creation team over at Kropserkel created this fantastic set of armor and a variety of others as potential Nazgul armor. You could even commission them to custom make your own set of Lord of the Rings Armor, how cool is that?

Jabba The Snowman



This great picture of Lucas Arts' holiday card from this year made me wish I was on their Christmas card list. This particular card was sent to Bonnie Burton, the editor of The Official Star Wars Blog.
