Fork phone – cutlery for your iPhone
Someone at a more popular blog than this one (erm, which doesn’t narrow it down much at all! ;)) suggested this might be the cutest cutlery based iPhone holder you’re every likely to see. I think they might be right! The best part is that it’s dead cheap (well, it’s currently dead cheap) and you […]
Building not found
The 404 error escaped the internet many years ago. We’ve seen it crop up during football matches, on giant TV screens and I’ve seen it on automated ads in the London Tube. What about this, though? This building has gone. I wonder if a 301 redirect would be wise. (Via Unplugged)
Bulbasaur used Leech Seed
A Pokemon file sharing gag! It had to happen. Wasn’t Bubasaur one of the better but underused Pokemon? Why didn’t the cute critter not just hang back while attacking with its Bulbasaur tentacles? That’s what I would have done! (Via Fuck Yeah, puns!)
iScream = iPod cream?
I think we need a new word for visual puns. Vuns? Vispuns? Pins? I wonder which lasts longer; an iPhone’s battery or an ice lolly out in the heat? Oh noes! I’m running this risk of evoking the rather of the Apple fanbois! (Via Hush now).
Sleep like the dead – blood pillows
Sometimes you want to take a swift nap. Just 40 winks. It’s not much to ask – but people still insist on disturbing you! It’s not on. It’s not on at all! Fortunately, there is a solution. Sleep like the dead. All you need is a pool of blood for a pillow and no one […]
Have we forgotten that March 4th is GM’s Day?
March the 4th is GM’s Day. No, really. It is! Here’s a post that dates back to 2002 discussing it on Enworld. It used to be the fashion to mark GM’s day with discounts. A chance to buy stuff for your GM. This post was written on March the 2nd and scheduled to go live […]
Lego meets Pink Floyd – The WALL
Sometimes 1+1=3. For example, take lego – which is ace – and take Pink Floyd – who are ace – and put them together. The result is a lego version of the famous album cover. Lego hat tip to Let’s Brick as the people who actually did the hard work!
Sony buys Media Molecule – LittleBigPlanet and security
Sony have bought Media Molecule. Media Molecule are the dev house behind PlayStation’s run away online success LittleBigPlanet. You only need to look at how heavily LittleBigPlanet features – still – in PlayStation’s advertising to see how important a game this is for them. Over at the PlayStation EU blog we get the official lowdown […]
We Are The X-Men teaser
We Are The Watchmen – sorry, I mean – We Are The X-Men. It’s the blood on the logo that does it. I really did read this text as “We Are the Watchmen” when I first glanced at this in Google Reader. No. It’s X-Men. So what’s going on? My bet is an Avenger’s style […]
