Cardboard Toilet Paper Roll Art

Two-ply or three-ply? This is a no brainer for some (yours truly included), but you might be surprised at how some people do not really care what kind of toilet paper they grab from the supermarket shelves. So yeah, I might be anal when it comes to toilet paper (pun intended), but I don’t think much about that piece of cardboard tubing left behind when the roll is all used up. This, however, will make you think twice before you throw that cardboard tube away. (No, this is not about learning origami while in the bathroom.) Read more »

Sexy Geek Pasties

Now some of you guys out there might be wondering exactly what pasties are. Why don’t I let you wonder a little bit more? For those of you who already know (and, no, they are not the kind that you can buy at the bakery for breakfast or a quick snack), then you must be quite excited by now. Lady Tornade sells these little custom-made pasties that any geek girl would find more than useful. Here’s a little teaser: Pacman pasties. And another one: mushroom pasties. Any idea what they are for? I really hope I won’t get into trouble for posting this image, but they illustrate best what pasties Read more »

I got an e-mail from a reader bringing my attention to the SCOTTeVEST – something that I hadn’t heard about back then. I did take a look at the video on YouTube, and found myself slightly amused. Check it out and let me know what you think. I am a skeptical person, so it is not a surprise that I cannot make myself believe that all those gadgets actually fit into the SCOTTeVEST! And, not that I am an expert in analyzing videos, but this one doesn’t seem to ring quite true; so I went to the web site of the product, and guess what I found? This travel vest Read more »

Star Wars Apparel goes even more mainstream with Adidas Originals

When major labels take over a branch of science fiction, the end result can be described as an epiphany of sorts for the uninitiated. Geeks can now roam the earth more freely taking advantage of the fact that their little cult has been carved out and brought into the mainstream. Take Adidas. Out this 2010, Adidas Originals will feature a special Star Wars apparel collection highlighted by the Storm Trooper / Vader footwear for the guys and, well … Princess Leia rubber shoes highly inspired by the slave girl outfit. Manufacturers are fragmented to complete the whole picture. So you have Adidas for the boots, Marc Ecko for the hoodies Read more »

Wear Your Own Personal Soundtrack

I just came from the theatre; watched Watchmen. I am ashamed to say that I have never read the graphic novel but that didn’t stop me from watching the movie. After all, everyone says that they pretty much stuck to the story so it’s about the same. Aside from the awesome cinematics and effects, I have to say that the soundtrack is one of the best points of the movie. And speaking of soundtracks, have you noticed how much drama the music adds to movies? Read more »
