8-Bit Flowers: Perfect For Your Geek Gamer Girl
I'm sure a lot of women will disagree with me, but I'm not a fan of receiving big expensive bouquets of flowers. The thought behind a gift like that is so humbling, and I appreciate it; however, I think the money could be so much better spent on something that isn't going to die in a week. Maybe I' ...
A Tribute To Steampunk: An Art Movement
Somebody asked me this morning to explain what steampunk is. It's a very interesting thing to try to describe. I love steampunk style, but it's tricky to put into words. It's kinda like modding modern day technologies into old-fashioned non-scary looking monsters. It's a little bit of goth mixed ...
Baby Darth Vader’s Discovery Of The Force
Before the Star Wars movies became household names for awesomeness, we didn't know anything about the force. It simply wasn't a part of our vocabulary. We had no clue what light sabres were, and we definitely didn't know anything about a creature named Yoda or what the Death Star was. We lived pr ...
Gaming Art: Beer Bottle Cap Game Characters
As we have stated before, art can come in a myriad of forms, sizes and shapes and none of them are right or wrong. It's quite interesting to know that almost half of all the art created with games as the inspiration comes from the early 80s and the Nintendo era. Those 8-bit characters truly have b ...
Teenager Builds Ultra-Powerful Death Ray
Dang, the teenagers of today are so different than when I was younger. When I was a teenager, I used to ride my moped to Burger King (aka the BK Lounge) to meet up with my friends. Today's teenagers are first generation digital natives, which means they are doing much more exciting things than han ...
The Wearable Plant: Is It Fashion or Foliage?
The reason I write about plants on Bit Rebels is because it's as close as I can get to actually having them. I stopped buying plants a few years ago because I always accidentally kill them. And then, after they are dead, I go through the whole emotional spectrum like when I was six and I killed my ...
How To: Make Flirty & Naughty Valentine’s Day Cookies
What? You didn't know cookies could be flirty and naughty? Well guess again, they sure can be! These little lingerie bra (with a pearl necklace) and matching red-shimmering thong panty cookies are just as cute as can be, and they are perfect for Valentine's Day!
Shelly, a very sweet writer at ...
A Social Experiment: Can Complete Strangers Fool You?
This is really interesting because when you think about it, we've all seen movies where the actors and actresses had chemistry. It doesn't even have to be a sexual chemistry, it could just be a chemistry that sucks us in and makes us believe what they are saying. If a movie is good, we'll get lost ...
The Last Meal Requests of Death Row Prisoners
Here in America, we have the death penalty. It's a very controversial topic, and whether you are for it or against it, it's here. In most states, the death row inmates get to choose whatever they would like to eat for their "last meal." Whenever I think about this, it always reminds me of the bib ...
Steampunk iPod Case Goes Beyond Extraordinary Details
Today's gadgets are all streamlined and designed to perfection. Usually they entail an overall white color with seamless assembly points. If you really try to categorize them, they are more depersonalized gadgets than inspiring ones if you ask me. Everything from Apple, for example, has a really ...
Angry Birds LEGO Builds: When Addiction Meets Creativity
How is it that every day now there is something new in the world of Angry Birds? This ultimately addicting game is starting to become the new Star Wars when it comes to its many spoofs and creations. What I mean is that I wouldn't be surprised if we soon saw a Beetle car turned into an Angry Bird ...
Los Angeles Zoo: Creative Ad Campaign In The Name Of Geek
One of the most creative industries must be advertising. Designing ideas and coming up with good ad campaigns must be a truly rewarding job if everything falls into place. When it doesn't, I can imagine that you would want to switch jobs in an instant. But when things work out, it certainly must ...
Creative Inspiration: The Toy Army Men With A Message
I've played with toy army men for as long as I can remember. The army men they sell these days are a lot different from when I was young. Now you can get fancy army men that snap together into a team, kind of like Lego blocks. But, my favorite ones will always be the old-fashioned, 2-inch tall gr ...
Life: The Ultimate Instruction Manual For Men
When I was growing up, my dad took good care of us. He always made sure we had food on the table and clothes on our back. I bet it is hard for some fathers out there to juggle making sure they earn a good living to provide for their families and taking care of the house to make sure everything is ...

Transformers: The Cars Behind The Robots [Infographic]
I was never a huge Transformers fan as a kid. There, I said it! Even though that might sound weird coming from someone claiming to be in the realm of the uber geeks, it simply never caught my fancy. Why I have no idea really. Watching the blockbuster movies today put it all in a skewed perspecti ...
