Dec 16 2008 Well, That Made My Day: A Wii Accident
I love the way he starts crying for his mommy and slapping the TV like that'll magically make the screen uncrack. Remember: they give you wrist straps for a reason -- they make pretty bracelets!
What a Wiimote to the TV Actually Looks Like [gizmodo]
Thanks to Julian, who doesn't break TVs playing Wii because he has a HD projector -- that comes out of his penis. It's true, he plays movies for people on the subway. Also, thanks to Richthegringo, who caught a showing of the Dark Knight.
Oct 28 2008 Not Awesome: Worst Body/Case Mod Ever
Not only does this moron have a sarape tacked to the wall as a window treatment, he's got a freaking computer duct taped to his nuts. Now why is he not being electrocuted? And, more importantly, who the hell took the picture? $20 says it was his mom.

Papercraft Fun Frustration: Batman's Tumbler
Ah, Papercraft. A hobby that involves two of my favorite pastimes: cutting things, and glue. Did I mention I huff glue? I huff glue. Did I mention I huff glue? Freaking love that stuff. Anyway, this is a Papercraft Tumbler. It looks complicated and I could never make it. Not in a hundred years. I could cut the tip of a finger off though. Or, if the price is right, a toe. "You want a toe? I can get you a toe, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don't wanna know about it, believe me. Hell, I can get you a toe by 3 o'clock this afternoon...with nail polish." While I have no Papercraft skills, my roommate has been up for two days straight working on this thing. I just peeked in his room and he's passed out on a pile of dirty clothes with one ball hanging out the fly of his boxers. But the car looks finished. So while he's sleeping I'm gonna tape a couple fireworks to the back and shoot it down the street.
UPDATE: So it, uh, burnt up pretty quick.

Jul 9 2008 Super Mario Bros. "Landscape" Art Installation
I don't have much information about these pictures except they're part of an art installation entitled "Landscape" and feature, well, a landscape from Super Mario Bros. The installation may or may not have been created by a woman named Antoinette J. Citizen -- which is either the coolest real name ever, or the worst porn name ever. Let's see, what else? There are some interactive question mark boxes that play Mario sound effects when you push them and I totally want my bedroom done up like this. Fine, the guest bedroom. The wife would kill me if I took down any of her Johnny Depp posters in the master. Just kidding, those are mine. But seriously, they're not coming down.
Hit the jump for a bunch more pictures and a link to the gallery with even more.

Apr 7 2008 Cheap: Beadsprite Magnets For Sale on Etsy
These are video game sprites made out of those little beads that you iron and melt together. I posted the Mario ones, but the seller has others, including some Earthbound and Final Fantasy. They all run between $4 - $5.50, so they're affordable. Of course, you can make your own if you're crafty and your mommy lets you use the iron. Mine doesn't (read: I scorched my genitals thrice), so I'd have to buy them. I am allowed to play with the beads though. Delicious.
Thanks to Jen, whose husband is clearly a very lucky man, for the tip
