Paper Plate Built Into Pizza Box: No More Greasy Fingers
It's always interesting to learn how and why certain products were created. Some of the world's more incredible inventions were discovered completely by accident since the inventor didn't intend to create anything at all. Other things were originally called "mistakes" since they were meant to be som ...
Retrofied Star Wars Pixel Art
If you are a proper geek, you know your retro graphics by heart. You know that without them, the essence of your existence is utterly in vain. The comeback of retro graphics in the form of 8-bit pixel games has totally got me mesmerized. I am a huge fan of Minecraft, and as often as I can, I play a ...
Wicked Witch Of The East Bookmark (Complete With Ruby Slippers)
Ever since I pinned this picture of a wicked witch of the east cupcake a few days ago on Pinterest, I've been thinking about The Wizard of Oz. There have been so many fabulous designs over the years which were inspired by that classic movie. It's hard to believe the original Wizard of Oz film was re ...
Cupcake ATM Machine: 24-Hour Access To Fresh Delicious Treats
People who live in L.A. really do have it made. Not only do they get to enjoy the most beautiful weather in the world all year round, but now they'll be able to go to a magical cupcake ATM machine and get a fresh cupcake whenever they get a sweet tooth.
I know what you're thinking... fresh, gorge ...
Receipt Art: Doodles On Restaurant Guest Checks
I've always said that you can tell a lot about a guy on a first date by how he tips at a restaurant. In my opinion, you can learn more about a guy from that than what comes out of his mouth. Whether he tips generously, whether he gets out a tip calculator or whether he barely leaves any extra at all ...
Beautiful Street Water Calligraffiti Art
Water, it's the one natural resource that is a necessity for all life. Even though you can easily find it in your tap, you might not think about it more than that. It is good to use to take a shower or drink, but it is not a guaranteed clean resource in some parts of the world. We could debate this ...
Random Mosaic Art You Will Geek Out On
The Society of American Mosaic Artists will be opening an exhibit in my hometown soon. Woo-hoo you say, next. Wait, don’t tune me out yet. I must admit the word mosaic quite frankly doesn't sound very geeky. This ancient art form makes me think about Italy or extravagant kitchen tile decor, not funk ...
Mind Twisting Futuristic Holographic Light Sculptures
As a technology freak, I often find myself thinking about tomorrow's technology and how life will be 10 years from now. Further down the road, I am sure we'll see another revolution in technology. It will be something that will rival the Internet, the industrialization and even the wheel. What that ...
DIY Spider-Man Manicure: Even Spidey Will Be Impressed
Comic book nail art is one of my favorite types of manicures, and nobody does it like the nailasaurus. I've been following her blog for a while, and it's always fun to see what she comes up with next. She posts a different manicure almost every day, and this time, she even included a tutorial.
Th ...

Inspiring Architecture: Hotel Balcony Swimming Pools [12 Pics]
I don't know if it's because everybody is itching for summer to get here or what, but articles about beautiful resort swimming pools have been very popular lately. Since I'll be sitting in a suite on the ocean all next week while I write my Bit Rebels articles, I thought I'd share some of the most u ...
10 Geek Aprons: Wonder Woman, Batman, Harley Quinn, Mario & More
I've noticed before that in pictures of women in the kitchen (and other parts of the house) from the 50s and 60s, they are almost always wearing an apron. Even in the recent article I wrote about some funny retro sexist ads, you can see it. Does that mean wearing an apron in the kitchen is old fashi ...
Game For Geeks: Monopoly Web Lovers Edition
Playing Monopoly is always a lot of fun, but playing this web lovers edition would make it even better. According to Wikipedia, the earliest version of the Monopoly game we all know was introduced back in 1904. Since then, there have been all kinds of new versions, updates and tournaments. Of all th ...
Stunning Papercraft That Goes Far Beyond Intricate Folds
In a previous article, I went on about some handcrafted shattered CDs turned into amazing lifelike animals. The artwork was stunningly beautiful, and I guess you could just imagine it glistening in the sun when you moved it around to check it from different angles. That artwork truly made an impact ...
Glitter Sparkly Shoes For Geek Princesses
I haven't written about a pair of flat shoes since I started writing here at Bit Rebels, but there's a first time for everything, right? I normally subscribe to the mantra that girls can do anything in the whole world if they have the right shoes, and normally for me, those shoes come with at least ...
Beer Jello Shots (Complete With Tiny Foam Heads)
I used to think jello shots were so 1999 until I realized they are just as popular now as back then, they just look different. They used to look boring and feel slimy. I was always too skeeeved out to try one back then. These days jello shots are a little more sophisticated. I suppose it's a stretch ...
