Feb 23 2009 Beats From The Dark Side: AT-AT Boombox
I have no more information on this thing except it looks like a functional boombox in the form factor of an AT-AT. Really makes me want to throw down a piece of cardboard and break. That's breakdance for those of you not in the know. Uh, wicka-pow! You see that move? That was fresh, was it not? So fresh. And these beats -- it's like they were harvested from the beat-bush this morning. Quick, somebody drop one for me!
My name is Geekologie and I am full of knowledge-yI drop the learnin' like a hookers box the burnin'
Actually, I'm feeling a little burny myself right now
Hold that beat while I find my ointment.
I know, I am the freshest. Seriously, check my expiration date. Haha, that's right -- I don't have one! I scratched it out with a car key because I expired a week ago. I'm getting rancid. Quick, drink me anyways! You puked didn't you? Haha, told you I was rancid. Now one more sip. DO IT!
Hit the jump for a bunch of closeups of the awesomeness.

Aug 19 2008 Breakdancing To Dance Dance Revolution
Okay, so it's not really Dance Dance Revolution. It's some game called Pump It Up. And you've probably already seen this before. You know, back when it came out two years ago. So make sure to leave a note in the comments about that. Also, one about how you could do way better because you are a L337 dancer and was in a Janet Jackson video. All I know is that I could never do that. I had DDR for the PS2 and always did terribly. Partly because my dong dragged on the buttons, but mostly because I was just humping the mat.

Jun 2 2008 Cassette Face Watch Is Alright, I Guess
The AOS Cassette Face Watch costs about $70 and looks like a cassette. It also tells time. No way. Yes way. No way! Yes way! But who needs to tell time anyways? Time is old fashioned and not the sun. I suggest we get rid of time altogether and any hot and spicy female readers send me provocative pictures. Because then, I'm a scientist, time won't be important. I said I'm a scientist yo. This is a real lab coat. Wait, where'd my lab coat go? Okay, well this is an authentic Big Johnson t-shirt. I actually have no idea about worm holes because the bourbon this morning made afternoon delights a no go and I think a rocketship just crash landed on my brain. So get those coming. Also, something about...oh yes, this watch is okay but you know what's better than a cassette watch? No, not a Walkman watch. Well, technologically, that is cooler but not what I was getting at. I was getting at...shit now you made me forget. OH YEAH -- a BOOMBOX watch. A watch that looks like an old school ghetto blaster. Cool huh? I know. You hear that, Tokyoflash? I want one for free when it's made or else the good doctor gets it, do you understandeth what I speak? I need to lie down. Oh my God this pillow is meowing!
Another picture after the jump in case you were dying to know what the watch looks like with a hand casually tucked into your black-jeans pocket.

May 23 2008 Rolling Boombox Confuses, Befuddles Me
When I think boombox I think of an oldschool ghetto blaster you carry on your shoulder that eats D batteries like my girlfriend eats pies and cakes. I definitely don't think of any wheels. Are people getting too weak to carry boomboxes? I just don't get it. This thing looks like a pushable Segway. Which might just be the most brilliant invention I've ever heard of.
A couple more pictures after the jump, including one of a guy that is definitely in the running to win "Asshat of Memorial Day Weekend".
Jan 8 2008 Lasonic i931 iPod Ghetto Blaster A Reality
We posted the Lasonic iPod Boombox back in August, but at that time the thing just seemed conceptual. Then comes CES 2008, and presto, the Lasonic i931 iPod Ghetto Blaster in the flesh! Damn yeah I'm excited. It's MSRP is set at a paltry $169 and the company is currently looking for distributors. I actually just finished emailing them saying that I'd gladly be their U.S. distributor. I mean it can't be that hard right? I just take orders and shit the things out. Ha! I just typed shit instead of ship, and I'm not changing it. Mostly because my delete key is broken and I'm too drunk to accurately click on that party of the paragraph. Look, I did it again -- I wrote party instead of part! Jesus, I need to lie down. Or puke. Definitely puke. Then maybe I'll take a little nap on the bathroom floor.
Three more pics and the unit's specs after a little breakdancing.

Aug 14 2007 Lasonic iPod Boombox
If you're anything like me you spent the 80's rocking a Member's Only jacket and carrying around a ghetto blaster and a piece of cardboard so you'd be ready to break anywhere and everywhere. Well Lasonic is releasing an updated version of one of their most popular Boombox models of the 80's that includes a freaking iPod docking station. I just hope I can still run it off of D batteries. This thing is so awesome that I can't even show you a real picture of it because it would burn your retinas out and blow your eardrums simultaneously. So there is a graphical representation for your viewing pleasure. And by viewing pleasure I mean it was more than enough to give me a little twitter down there.
