Geek of the Day - Baby Keystrokes
>> Saturday, February 28, 2009
These twins are cute. We're told their names are "Control C" and "Control V". You can call 'em CC and CV for short.
Guess What? Men DO See Women As Objects
Turns out, men really DO see women as objects.
According to a recent study, when men are shown pictures of chicks in bikinis, the part of the brain that handles "tools and actions" is activated -- NOT the part of the brain that recognizes other humans.
Now, before you start making lots of "tools and actions" jokes, let's do a quick quiz and see how you fare.
Which one is the object...?
And which one is a bunch of hot bikini chicks...?

Old Mr. Yuk PSA - Psychadelic and Scary
>> Tuesday, February 24, 2009
This blast from our past PSA is both scary and weird. "Sick sick sick!" "Sick sick sick!" Okay, we get it! Please make it stop!
If you'll pardon us, we have to curl into the fetal position and shiver with fear now...

"Maddness" - Very Strange Mardi Gras Online Ad
We found this odd advertisement for something called Mardi Gras "Maddness" (also spelled "Madnes" and "Madness" throughout the ad). It features a lifeless female cutout floating around in space, mouthing something that we can't hear.
Is it surrealist art? Or perhaps really bad Final Cut Pro?
Perhaps she's saying, "Save me! I'm stuck in a cheap advertising campaign! And I need spelling help!"

Brad Paisley Song: Cooler Online
Maybe we're out of the loop -- or maybe it's 'cause we rarely listen to country music -- but we missed this awesome Brad Paisley song when it came out.
It has inspired us to invest in some more country albums. Any suggestions...?

Ring Ring: The Best (and Worst) Cell Phone Holsters
>> Saturday, February 21, 2009
From cheap plastic to expensive leather, everyone has a different style when it comes to hauling around your cell phone. We've assembled some of the BEST and WORST cell phone holsters on the market. Check your belt -- you might have one on right now.
BEST for SCUBA Divers. (Especially sexy ones.)
WORST for your wallet... this ugly thing's by Nicole Miller, so you know it's expensive.
BEST holster for Grease fans... the Pink Lady.
WORST hands-free device... Ever.
BEST holster for all you Plushies out there... you dirty, dirty plushies.
WORST for protection... it looks like it's designed to scratch your screen!
BEST for taxi and limo drivers... we like to call it the "strap-on."
WORST for fashion... they look like crap on your feet, so why would Crocs make your cell phone look any better?
BEST for 007 wannabes. (Like us.)
WORST for cowboys... what happens if you get challenged to a draw? Will you text them to death?

Ignite - A New Geek Web Series
>> Friday, February 20, 2009
Who knew so much thought went into Cup o' Noodles?
Ignite is a new geeky show that features short presentations on a wide array of geek culture topics. The first ep, par example, is about how that classic late-night meal, Cup o' Noodles, came to be. And if that's not one for the history books, we don't know what is...
The 10 Most Frightening Photographs of Carrot Top
Okay, this has nothing to do with tech or computers. But we couldn't resist compiling our favorite shots of comedian Carrot Top looking -- well -- truly unique.
Consider this a cautionary tale. Major plastic surgery, intense weight training and clownish hair styles should be mixed with extreme prudence. And now, the parade of horrors...

Stereo System + Boobies = Beautiful Music
>> Wednesday, February 18, 2009
We love this new mp3 player/speaker design by Bob Turek. This simple, nasty setup combines block-rocking beats with the beauty of the female figure.
A terrific gift for Fathers Day.
(Big thanks to Carson for the link)
Nate Silver Uses Computers to Predict the Oscars
>> Tuesday, February 17, 2009
Our favorite mathematical/political whiz-kid, Nate Silver, used some fancy-pants logarithms to calculate this year's Oscar winners.
Some shockers here -- especially Best Supporting Actress going to Taraji P. Henson, the nice lady who snotted all over herself in Doubt.

Field Trippy: 7 Bizarre Museums You Don't Want to Miss
As kids, we loathed the boring, stuffy museums we were forced to visit. So we've compiled a must-see list that's way more interesting than anything you'd see on a school trip. The most bizarre museums in America...
Willow Creek-China Flat Museum a.k.a. Bigfoot Museum (Willow Creek, CA)
Don't believe in Sasquatch? You will once you see this museum's collection of really big footprints. They're plaster casts... what more proof do you people need?!
Mutter Museum a.k.a. House of Freaky Medical Sh-t (Philadelphia, PA)
Boasting a huge stockpile of human medical anomalies -- like Joseph Hyrtl's collection of skulls, 2,000 objects extracted from people's throats, and the cancerous growth removed from President Grover Cleveland - we suggest you skip lunch before your visit.
Museum of Menstruation and Women's Health a.k.a. The Period Museum (Virtual)
We don't really know how to describe this one. It's an online compendium of vagina-related stuff, curated by some weirdo. Highlights include:
If you've ever been curious about ladies' "little friends," this is the museum for you.
Pong Museum (Virtual)
An online tribute to the world's first video game. Site includes a rare 1969 clip of two guys playing an early version of Pong. If you love watching other people play video games... well, then there's something wrong with you.
The Hobo Museum (Britt, IA)
Featuring information about "hobos, rail-riders, and tramps," as well as some tips on how to become a hobo, like this gem:"The easiest way I know of to avoid Railroad Police is don't drink alcoholic beverages while waiting to catch out."
Makes ya want to eat beans from a can, doesn't it?
The SPAM® Museum aka Pseudo-Food Museum (Austin, MN)
Yes, there is a whole museum dedicated to SPAM® -- the delicious canned "food" that seems really funny until you actually taste it, and then it's not funny, it's just gross. The museum has meaty collections of packaging, ads, posters, recipes and our favorite... a Micro-SPAM-abrasion facial treatment. (Yes, they put SPAM® on your face.)
The Barf Bag Collection (Virtual)
A hurl-tastic collection of those little paper puke bags from airplanes. The guy who runs the site has over 1250 sick sacks from around the world (including this friendly one from Emirates Air). And there's even a section where you can share your own barf bag stories! The only story we could come up with was the time we watched Two Girls One Cup.
Onion: Sony Releases Stupid Piece Of Sh-t That Doesn't F--king Work
>> Monday, February 16, 2009
Good lord, The Onion is awesome. And NSFW.
And so true. We just got a Sony mp3 player that doesn't do half the sh-t we thought it would.
By the way, why can't all news anchors curse as much as this guy? It would make the nightly news SOOO much better.

Tech Flashback: Zany Inventions from the 1920s
These people aren't exactly the Bill Gates or Ralph H. Baer of their era. But we'll give them credit for trying.
For instance, a ladder to the second floor of a double-decker bus? Maybe not "genius," but sorta useful... kinda.

Permanent Dork: The 11 Geekiest Tattoos Of All Time
We're geeky... but we have limits. For example, we would never express our love for the TV series Fringe by etching Dr. Bishop's face into our shoulder. Some people, however, take their dweeb-ness to a whole different level. Behold, the 11 geekiest tattoos of all time...
11. Flying spaghetti monster. If you don't know what it is... it just looks ugly.
10. Power button. Hmm, we thought that was lower on the body...
9. For everyone who flunked chemistry... it's salt! Woohoo!
8. Ahh, yes, the binary arm-band. Totally "01100011011011110110111101101100," dude.
7. This way, whenever he looks at his watch, he'll be reminded of the video game console he owned in 1986. Which is really all you need in life, isn't it?
6. Nothing says "love" like an emoticon stabbed into your dermis.
6. Let's hope it doesn't play that annoying Space Invaders music all the time.
5. Now that's what we call ARM-rithmatic! Hahahahahahahaha -- shoot us.
4. We're told he also has Ewoks on his ass cheeks.
3. Oh no! Orochimaru's gonna get you! How will you use Chidori on Itachi!?... What? No Naruto fans out there?
2. Tramp stamp + programming language = the perfect woman.
1. DOS tattoo... when you absolutely want the world to know that you've just given up.
