Legend of Zelda NES Case Mod w/bonus Video




Made by Ryan Fitzpatrick (aka “Platinumfungi,”)

Legend of Zelda Cufflinks - Wait.. Listen!


There was a time where i would do anything to have these. I would sell a child, deal drugs, or have sex with old ladies. Really old ladies. Okay maybe i would not sell a child...

Buy them here. Be quick, time is of the essence!

World's Record NES Controller


The massive controller measures approximately 12ft (w) x 5 ft (d) 3 in x 1ft 8 in (h), and weighs in at a whopping 265 pounds. It was built by Ben Allen, along with Stephen van ‘t Hof and Michel Verhulst.
The controller cost over $6,000 (USD) to construct, and yes – it does play games. The thing is so big that it takes at least two people to play a game with it, as the armspan required to use the D-Pad at the same time as the A/B buttons is too wide for even the likes of Yao Ming. Hence, my comment about Co-Op mode in the title above.

Woman Makes R2-D2 Sweater, Old people interested in Star Wars come winter time


Created by Etsy user "EricaKnit", this incredible custom R2-D2 sweater is "made from merino wool for each interested buyer (or whatever type of wool they please) [and] looks particularly appropriate for wintertime cosplay."

The only way to rock out with an R2-D2 sweater is to not wear any pants at all. You have to act like a gentleman after all.

Sexy Robot Saturday : Now available on the Sabbath

Attention! Attention!

Sexy Robot Saturday has now been relocated to Sundays. And will be known from this day forth as Sexy Robot Sabbath.

Our scientist have determined through hours of research and development concluding in the statistics now showing Sunday is the best and most requested day for a new Sexy Robot to stimulate the working class just enough to get them through the following workweek.

Unfortunately, our scientist also discovered that the working class is also interested saving time. So, for their sake, and with the help of our lawyers, we have decided to combined two of the three parts for today.

We give you - The Sexy & The Sabbath!!

The robot part is still in the
development stage.

Death Star VS Borg

(I think the cube would win, seems to me that it can travel fast, which the death star cannot do.)

Sexy Robot Saturday

I know, where has this been? Right? Seriously, aren't we there yet technologically? Twenty-first century and all, with the "Welcome to the World of Tomorrow". But I digress, and here by claim this day and all like it as 'Sexy Robot Saturday'! This comes at a price. I challenge anyone to find a sexier, more warped, robotic female then I have. Cause really, what's better then a hot ass sexy robot babe on a Saturday afternoon?...with an off switch, did I mention that part?

Operation "Dead Drop" Anonymous File Sharing Espionage


A person by the name of Aram Bartholl has put large size USB drives into walls, curbs, and solid objects all around the NYC area, 5 in total. You can take your USB device of choice, plug it into the wall and share files anonymously.. and it's all offline so completely untraceable.

Spies, government officials, and all around James Bond types have used this in the past using Dead Drop Spikes, a kind of metal spear you drive into the ground or wall with a metal cap that contains money, identification or pertinent information of a secret nature. This USB project is a play on that.

I call this the next big thing. I can imagine a website detailing thousands of "Dead Drops" in your local town or city where people can exchange untraceable information. Police could in theory find these USB drops and remove them or even take the information for themselves, but the implement remains.. no one would ever know the information you put on there was yours. This my friends, is genius. Watch for this to blow up soon.

Time Traveller in Charlie Chaplin's "The Circus" 1928



Rewind time to 1928, and the set of the movie "The Circus", starring Charlie Chaplin. Mind you, cell phones, walkie-talkies, hand held radios without antenna's.. all not invented yet. So why would and extra from the movie be walking around with a cell phone in their hand, talking away, in 1928? I call it a chronological anomaly of epic porportions.

Typically I poke fun at things like this, but I have no other explaination. If you Google this nonsense, it's huge, people from all over are screening the footage. A team of people are trying to find out who the person is from logs of extras paid at the movie set, with no avail. Everything about this stinks of Deloreans and time travel. Personally, I'm almost certain it's an eleaborate hoax from whoever put the special features on the DVD, some special effects person with nothing better to do. If anyone has an original reel that can prove that this was filmed this way, then I may be a believer.

This proves that there are obvious, overlooked Anachronisms in old motion pictures if you look hard enough, and I think there are alot more to come. Video Proof below.

Modder Makes Samus' Arm Cannon



I thought Samus was a girl, but seeing how this is a pretty rad mod, i'll let this one slip by without comment.
.
...
.....
Okay I can't not say anything. If my son asks me when he is old enough if he can be Samus I'll smile at him and say yes, but then i will ask him several questions including: "Are you a fag?" - "Did your mother put you up to this?" - "Does this have anything to do with uncle Morgan?"

If he passes all these questions I'll let it go, take my Homosil for extra tolerance, and drink Miller High Life Light untill the feeling passes.

Google Summons Mecha-Jesus

I like the website, Fark. I think it's the intelligent person's CNN, so I keep up to date with it, read it, and commit the finer parts to memory. This would be one of those things. Google has decided as part of their 20th Anniversary celebrations that they were going to to digitally process all 30,000+ pages of the Dead Sea Scrolls. As a rule, when I see anything "Google" that is not directly involved with their search engine, I say "Fuck it, who cares." Google apparently wants the monopoly on religion as well, which is just fine with me.

Google needs to touch every pussy, dick and asshole in the universe before they feel loved.. and I know exactly how they feel. I envy those employees at Google when they get to look at things most people have not: Books of the Bible that were found in those caves, long forgotten texts, and the earliest known version of the Hebrew Bible. I'd like to think they overlooked something.. something so important... One thing that the Google researches found in the earthen pots, forgotten for ages.. swept away by the winds of time:

Mecha Jesus.

So I'm pretty excited about the first copy of these digitized fragmented documents, needless to say. Hopefully if i catch Google early enough so I can summon my very own Mecha Jesus first. From what I've read it's pretty easy to do and Mecha Jesus knows how to cook Hot Pockets so the shit does not spill out the ends when they are not sealed real good. (Morgan says I cooked it too long, which is bullshit)

Included with your instructions on Google's homepage to summon your own Mecha Jesus, there is a new owners manual that explains how to control him. It's all in Hebrew, but luckily Google has that translator thing which works for that. Hebrew is God's language, and the Hebrew people are the chosen, so naturally Mecha Jesus only eats Matzoh and brown baby food made from ground up foreskins like in Robocop.

One drawback: He despises foreskin, and knows if you have it, so if you have foreskin I don't think Mecha Jesus summoning is for you until the next version comes out, which is being released by Steve Jobs. The rumored name for the second version is "Copeland Snowlions". That one will be considered green, and only use solar power and just a little tiny bit of the aforementioned Foreskin Yogurt.

Major Asselin VS The Angry Video Game Nerd


Long before the Angry Video Game nerd did his Powerglove article, i had been making fun of it, writing articles about NES games, making short films and so on. Yeah, I'm a little bitter about it.

Here is the original post.
.
Here is the angry video game (nes nerd at the time) nerd's movie about it.
.
At the time, my video game man cave could have rivaled his own, since then he has made his so glorious i could never think of catching up. That, and i sold the whole collection last year when i downsized. Pictures are on snakepeople.net of the old collection if your interested.
.
Scroll down to 2002, around September, and you will see Chrys ranting about the glove again. Orginally we made a movie of Matt Clifton trying to beat random NES and getting frustrated because the thing could not work. The video has since been lost, but I'd say around then we made the movie and just never did anything clever with it. If i posted it, i can't find it.
.
We started with Castlevania, in which simon does nothing but duck. I integrated some of the videos we made of that into the Castlevania page i made for snakepeople.net, sometime in 2002. Located here. Didnt mean to bore ya guys, just thought it was interesting. Love live the Nerd.

World's Greatest Laptop


I became obsessed with laptops after i realized i could never fix them. I had been given an IBM Toughbook by a buisnessman client i had when i ran a small Computer fix-it-up buisness.. this was back when it was still cheaper for me to fix it, then pay the Best Buy Garuntee. I told him i would fix it, but would need time because i had never seen or worked on an IBM Toughbook, and it seemed welded together. He did not pay me up front, which was customary, and for whatever reason, i never saw him again.

I found a friend who knew more than i did about such thingds that worked at a competetor, so he helped me out in exchange for some driver disks and such. I got the beast running again and instantly fell in love. Nothing could hurt this monster. I was not afraid to toss it in the back seat with a bunch of tools, or throw it on the kitchen table roughly. You could spill a beer in the keyboard and it would not blink an eye. This being my first PC Laptop i thought all PC laptops were like this, and was throughly impressed.

Over a year later Joe Buisnessman came back to my Duplex apartment and asked for his computer back. I told him its been a year or more, and that it would cost him $500 for the repair. He paid with cash, and took the best thing i have ever owned out of my life.. well besides my car.
Forget huge screens and AlienWare bull shit, that Toughbook was blazing fast, bulletproff and water proof. When you hit the CD eject button, the CD rom flipped up from under the keyboard. WHAT. They are made by Panasonic now, which is fine and they look pretty much the same. They come in touchscreen, tablet, and fucking awesome. Below is a video of some guys pouring water and driving cars over one, and show it still works. For those who wonder what i have now, click here. (mine is the 16.4in screen, black on black)



And now for some other laptops i think are nice, but they dont have the Fabled Mistress Port, so they are just OKAY.

My Son's Bedroom (yes, really)












I made all the graphics with Proposter, and bought the wall border from Ebay. Everything else is thanks to my closet, which supplied all the rest. Not shown: Stuffed animals, 1 up mushrooms, VHS Mario movies and TV show stuff, and so on and so on.
