It seems there are two types of geeks these days.

R2-D2 Ballerina Cosplay: This Is The Droid You’ve Been Looking For
R2-D2 is my favorite Star Wars character. He always has been. Of course, Leia is a close second, but there is just something about that little droid that makes me feel warm and cozy. If he was real, I'd adopt him in a nano-second. Maybe someday we'll all get to have interactive R2-D2 holograms in ou ...
Mass Effect Inspired Nerf Gun Mods
One of the best parts of being an adult compared to being a child is that we have bigger toys. It's just how it is. When you're a kid, you are at the mercy of your family to get you the cool stuff. But as an adult, it's a whole different story. You become large and in charge, and with that, you have ...
The Bat-Stache: The Batman Inspired Mustache Design
If I can get passed the fact that this guy looks like a porn star from the '70s with that "come hither" look in his eyes, I might be able to handle this mustache. After all, I bet he could make all my Batman dreams come true. I can hear it now... "Come ride on my batmobile baby. If you're a good gir ...
Pac-Man & Space Invaders Neckties For Geeky Professionals
I don't know many guys who have to wear a suit and tie to work anymore. I'm sure there are still many of them out there; they just aren't people I interact with very often. Although a man in a suit can be sexy at times, for the most part, I feel sorry for guys who have to dress like that all week at ...
How To Hack The Gigaware 12-494 Universal FM Transmitter
Several years ago, I picked up this device to transmit audio from various devices to my stereo equipment via an FM signal.

For The Hippie In You: The Volkswagen Bus Camping Tent
I love this tent so much, but then again, I'm a little bit of a hippie. I occasionally wear Birkenstocks, I use the word groovy, I've been known to flash the peace sign, and I went out to dinner once with a guy just because he drove a VW Bug and I wanted to ride in it (not a new VW Bug, but one stra ...
The Highlights Of Stars Wars Explained In 10 Little Graphics
Believe it or not, there are some people in the world who don't understand how or why we love Star Wars so much. They are people who watch it once and say, "So what's the big deal?"

Starbucks Quiet Book: Teach Your Child How To Be A Coffee Addict
This is so funny! I saw it on Pinterest yesterday, and right away I knew I had to share it with you. In case you don't know what a quiet book is, it's a fabric book that you can give to your toddler to teach him or her some important life skills early. We've wrote about the Star Trek and the Star Wa ...
James Bond 007 Theme Song Played On Floppy Drives
Floppy drive music is always fun to listen to. It's not inspiring like regular music in a tune kind of way, but more in a geek kind of way. There is nothing that will put a smirky smile on your face quite the same way as modding some old computer equipment so it plays a song. These kinds of customiz ...

Eraser Shavings Turn Mistakes Into Happy Accidents
I love "happy accidents" art. Actually, there is no art that is officially called happy accidents; I just call it that. I heard that phrase when I was a little girl, and I started using it a long time ago to describe artwork that encourages mistakes since in order to grow, we have to make lots of mi ...
