The Cubicle Turns 40: Happy Friggin’ Birthday
Happy birthday to the cubicle. You turned 40. To celebrate, Scott Adams (the man who made Dilbert) is helping create the ideal cubicle. Seriously. He is. I want him to design mine.
What did you get YOUR cube for its birthday? I think mine will receive a collection of Master Chief MacFarlane action figures. Thanks Tim. [...]
Cufflinks: The Decision Continues
I’m so torn between the sweet looking Storm Trooper cufflinks and now these glorious looking binary cufflinks. Sure, Tim’s wedding is pretty far off, but it’s never too late to start accessorizing, especially when you’re planning to be THE authority on geek chic.
Check these puppies out at English Cufflinks. They’re going to run you, and [...]
GeekArt: Movie Geek Grafitti
Art Museums are closed on Mondays, so here’s your weekly dose of geek art!
This week’s visuals are brought to us by /Film - it’s a collection of super cool movie-geek grafitti found all over the world. Of course some of the better ones (read: Star Wars-related) are reportedly done by the super-notorious Banksy. I, for [...]
A Battle of Biblical Proportions: Bible Fight
Oh Adult Swim, how I love you. Behold, their latest creation… Bible Fight.
A flash game in which you choose your religious icon from the Bible and duke it out against another, Street Fighter II style. Check out Noah’s crazy stampede attack above. He kicked my ass (I was the Devil) with that!
Give it a whirl, [...]
GeekArt: Lego Monty Python, Bring Out Yer Dead!
If those Monty Python cubicle warfare weapons didn’t thrill you, maybe these Legos will.
A perfect reenactment of the Bring Out Yer Dead skit. If you’ve never seen it, you probably shouldn’t be reading this blog, but we’ll forgive you, just as long as you watch this video to catch up.

Geek Chic: ASCII Curtains
I, for one, have never expressed a desire to own curtains based solely on how awesome they are… until now. Designer Nieke Sybrandy’s concept for these curtains (for those of you too young to remember) stems from graphical imagery used in prehistoric computing systems. American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) is a character [...]
Puddle Blog: Content Runs Dry Come The Summer
“You know, that puddle should have its own blog” - Puddleblog.
Some silly Brooklyn dwellers in New York City have set up a blog for… you guessed it, a puddle. As ridiculous as it is, I can’t help but flick through the pictures. It “chronicles the epic journey of one puddle, bracing for an uncertain [...]
Ice Age III: Girl Mammoth Gets Eaten, Bloggers Rejoice
A lot of the movie blogs I read have been hurling a lot of anger at the Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs poster. I suppose its understandable. I mean, fully grown dinosaurs hanging out with woolly mammoths… if there’s one thing that the Land Before Time series has taught me, it’s that this [...]
Blogging: How Geekadelphia Stays in Shape
Blogging. The new way to lose weight.
At least, Jonathan Fields thinks so.
Fields has written up an article detailing how he burns 600 calories a day while blogging. This explains why the people over at Phillyist are such good lookin’ folks. Tim and I adhere to a similar schedule, only instead of running on a treadmill [...]
Maple-Bacon Lollipops: Go Great With Bacon Vodka
Well, I’ve always said, bacon is the candy of meats.
Looks like Lollyphile thinks the same way.
Behold, the first bacon based lollipop, made with a combination of organic, cured bacon and Vermont maple syrup. A dozen of these delicious looking candies will run you $24. Definitely worth every penny, especially when you hand them out on [...]
