Jul 27 2010Mommy, Where Do Tetris Blocks Come From?
You thought they were made in a factory, didn't you? Well they kind of are. THE ALIEN PAIN FACTORY! That's right -- tetrominoes are actually Space Invader penises. Who knew? I mean besides me which is why I've always considered Tetris the most erotic Game Boy game. You hear that, Dr. Mario?! I'm not coming out from anesthesia with my pants unzipped again!

Thanks to Christian, who was man enough to admit he feels a little flutter down there every time he gets a long block.

Pretty rad recreation of a Threadless shirt (http://kotaku.com/5585050/so-thats-where-tetris-blocks-come-from; I can't find the shirt on Threadless any more, probably sold out).
Well done.

This is a copy of an image from the internet, but instead of just space invaders it was also Goombas and PacMan ghosts.
