A half-squid, half-octopus creature was found in Hawaii and biologists say it might be a new species of animal. War, who termed the specimen "octosquid" for the way it looked, said it was about a foot long, with white suction cups, eight tentacles and an octopus head with a squidlike mantle. Meh. Give me an octopus, a squid, and a stapler, and I'll give... | More →

Not much info on this car crash except that it happened near China Town in Thailand. And not much info on me except that I'm devastatingly good looking. Source | More →

Can afford an iPhone? Just get your mom to knit you one out of yarn. This is officially the coolest mom in the world. Unless you count mine. She wears sunglasses and a leather jacket. Just like the Fonz! | More →

The Emergency Stool is a laser cut panel of Baltic Birch plywood and can be quickly assembled by simply breaking the panel into its individual parts without the use of tools or fasteners. Although it looks a little too complicated for me. If I tried putting it together I'm pretty sure I'd end up with a pile of broken wood. Source... | More →

Consumerist launched a three month investigation into Geek Squad on claims the technicians would browse computers for sensitive files and then copy them over to their personal drives. They loaded up a computer with porn, rigged the computer to capture video of itself, and then caught a Geek Squad technician stealing the porn off the hard drive. Geek Squad responded that it was an... | More →

Why hang up fuzzy dice on your rear-view mirror when you can hang up fuzzy Game Boys? Or fuzzy kittens. Or real kittens? C'mon, man, be creative! Source | More →

These are tiny little wooden speakers which are made in Korea and cost about $45. Each speaker gives about five hours of playback, although at 1.5 watts per channel they aren't exactly the most powerful speakers on the market. They are, however, the most wood-like. Unless you count the ones I built. Although those are aren't really speakers, they're more like blocks of wood.... | More →

Turns out Apple has a pretty bad habit of stealing ideas from artists. Engadget put together a little collection of their recent thefts and it's pretty shameful. Although not nearly as shameful as the time I took my cousin out on a date by accident. Oh, man, the memories. The horrible horrible memories. | More →

These are some old (but still clever) ads for a European job search site, with the tag line: "Life's too short for the wrong job." Which I'd normally agree with, but I've been a land mine tester for years and life is great. Sure, I don't have any more of my limbs, but who needs arms and legs when you're rolling in that sweet... | More →

Samsonite has introduced the creepiest suitcase ever created. The Hero Suitcase from their Alexander McQueen Collection is described as: The human form is treated just like an animal skin, with the ribcage and sternum at the front of the case, and backbone at the back. The inside is formed by the negative of the outside shape in a soft molded form providing contrast with... | More →

Sony has put together this guerrilla marketing campaign for the PSP. It's basically a fake book cover to let you play your PSP in peace. Because as all gamers know, nothing fools the Man like a fake copy of The Divine Comedy. Source | More →

This clumsy fool broke his iPhone less than 24 hours after getting it. He brought it back to the Apple store and those glorious bastards replaced it for free. He writes: Well, I guess I'm the clumsiest person in the world. I managed to smash the screen less than 24 hours after I got it. I tried answering a call while it was plugged... | More →

This is a video showing all of the World of Warcraft dance animations along with where they were taken from. Although they left out my dance moves, most likely because they didn't want your computers to catch fire. | More →

Designer David Pier believes he's put together the ultimate coffee cup, which he describes as: The ultimate in ergonomic modern design. A unique and innovative cup that is as delightful to the hand as it is to the eye. Usually, original designs are different just to be different and therefore can be awkward to use, but this mug was designed to be superior in... | More →

Are you a ridiculous human being? Then you'll enjoy Kickbars, which are jewel-encrusted shoelace clips made with emeralds, sapphires, rubies, or diamonds set in white gold. The Kickbar features a 2 carat rectangular bar fitted with 54 diamonds and costs $7,500. Although I can't figure out who the market for this is. Anybody dumb enough to buy a $7,500 shoelace clip couldn't possibly have... | More →

Eleven 7-Eleven locations have been converted to Kwik-E-Marts to promote the new Simpsons movie, and this is the one in Burbank, California. Not only did they change the name, but they're also selling Kwik-E-Mart products like Squishees and Krusty-O's. They even have characters like Jasper as the 'Freezer Geezer' littered about the store. Although if you happen to wander in, I'm sure you'll find... | More →

The Bar Code Chandelier is an oversize chandelier based on the ubiquitous bar code graphic. It's laser cut with black and transparent acrylic and looks absolutely amazing. Although I prefer my chandeliers to be way more fancy and gaudy. How else are people going to know how rich I am? My top hat and monocle just aren't enough to cut it sometimes.... | More →
