Admiral Ackbar toilet: It’s a crap!

April 24, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This, er, work of art? Is it art? It’s something. This rather clever toilet is designed by Brenden Phillips and is on display over at Deviant Art. I suspect Barista Ackbar’s “It’s a frap” will be more popular!

A guide to battle imps

April 24, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The battle imps were GameWyrd’s first viral hit. They launched with a small competition and a news article on GamingReport. The concept was really basic. Your name was used to generate random characteristics for a randomly selected battle imp. You then “battled” your imp against others by entering their name into the system. Guide / […]

Muppet cupcakes = Wedding grub +2

It takes a certain sense of style to have a wedding that deserves a special mention. Alternatively you could work muppets into your big day in some way. In fact, for maximum greatness you could combine tasty, tasty cupcakes with muppets. The result? An enhanced wedding with muppet cupcakes. For photos of the wedding in […]

The third trailer for The Last Airbender looks impressive

April 24, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I think this trailer really begins to show what a visual treat The Last Airbender is going to be. Unlike many, I’m still a fan of M. Night Shyamalan too and although I think the casting debates/decisions are interesting I don’t think they condemn the movie in anyway. The first video is the latest trailer. […]

Dr Who: the Musical

April 24, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Some Whovians go down in the records of fame. It doesn’t happen very often. Di0br is one such Whovian. Di0br is responsible for the rather amazing “Tenth Doctor: The Musical”. This is a 7 minute collection of fantastically compiled clippings from the David Tennant era combined skillfully with music (sometimes NSFW tunes). Check. It. Out.

DM’s library wheel shames DM’s screens

April 23, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Some DMs like to keep reference material handy on the back of their DM screen. There is nothing wrong with that. Well. Nothing except space limitations. There’s only so much space on the back of a DM’s screen. If your goal wasn’t so much about rolling die in secret and was all about fitting as […]

Who wouldn’t want a talking Tardis cookie jar? (Ululating jammie dodger Tardis?)

April 23, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The very idea of a Tardis cookie jar is a good one. Whoever thought about making it a talking cookie jar was a brave man (or a brave woman indeed). How will the Doctor Who fans react? It’s for sale at Think Geek and I think they deserve an extra speshal pat on the back […]

Rather spooky / pretty new pictures of the sun

April 23, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Thanks to the awesome dudes and dudettes at New Scientist we’ve got YouTube access to some pretty breathtaking new pictures of the sun. Close up pictures. Pictures that show the swirl of super heated gas, flares and features. IO9 would call this “sun porn”.
