8 Retro Imaginary Advertisements For Modern Gadgets
As new gadgets get ever more advanced, so do the advertisements for them. We have seen it over and over again in the auto industry, and of course when it comes to new products from Apple, Microsoft and alike. It just never stops. Ad agencies keep coming up with the most idiotic things to catch our a ...
Old People In Love: A Warm & Fuzzy Photography Collection
In an earlier article today, I asked if you would want to live forever, if you could. Now I have another question for you. Do you believe love lasts forever? Do you think all relationships eventually run their course, and people either move on or stay out of convenience? Or, is it possible to be in ...
Pica Pic: Play All Those Retro Handheld Games Online!
I think almost everyone got to play the small handheld monochrome gaming pods when they were kids. It was the coolest gadget a kid could have, and we walked around with it to let everyone else see us play it. That's how us geeks did it, and we always watched to see if there were any other kids aroun ...
Age Is Only A Number: The 100-Year-Old Pageant Winner
I love writing about old ladies. They are just so cute and full of wisdom. They are special people in the world, and if you have to opportunity to listen to an old lady's stories, you've truly been given a wonderful gift. In some countries, elderly people are treated with kindness and respect. That ...
Watch The Very First Barbie TV Commercial Ever
There is a saying that there is a first time for everything. It's probably the best quote out there because there is no getting around it, and there are no alternatives for it. What I mean is that there is nothing that can break it. Either there is a first time or there is not, simple as that. Every ...
Missing Pieces: Jigsaw Puzzle Table & Lamp
There aren't many things that follow us from the time we are a young child all the way up to when we are adults. It's like whatever was there for us and entertained us as a child is gets less and less interesting the older we get.
Little toy cars, dolls and all the other things that we used to en ...
Book Tower: 30,000 Books Makes For A Mighty Sight
I almost don't know anyone anymore who has a lot of books at home. It's like as soon as we started to get those digitalized books on our computers, we stopped stocking up on regular books. As a matter of fact, we took them out of our homes completely. The question is really, what did we do with them ...
Dead Computer Room: Makes You Want To Say WTF!
There you are typing away on your computer not thinking about the fact that one day it will be yesterday's technology. We never think of our stuff that way until we finally find or see something that puts our gadget to shame. Then we work like mad people to get it, and we just toss the old one away ...
The Retro Boombox Gets A New Face With A Touchscreen!
Kick back and press play on that cassette player you so lovingly create mixtapes for. Let the boom become the rhythm of your body and make sure your neighbors join in on the fun. That is a scenario that we're not very used to these days since the cassette is an obsolete medium to record music on. ...
Tie Case: Recycle Your Old Ties Into Wallets And Cases
Being a kind of laid back person, I don't have the payload of ties to brag about. Sure, I do have my mandatory set of ten ties (trying to expand my collection), but working in front of a computer all day doesn't exactly set me up in a forum where I need a tie to represent myself. In the summers, i ...
Cartoonified: Super Mario In Retro Cartoon Style Posters
I am not sure of how many incarnations of Super Mario games there are out there, but I am sure there are a lot of them, right? They are always playful, colorful and most of all immensely addicting. The first Super Mario game for the NES was, for many, the one game that made them buy a Nintendo gam ...
Now There’s An Upside Down Use For A Boat!
As you have probably learned by now, I am a big fan of recycled uses of products. I could; however, be more environmentally aware than I am, but that is an entirely different article and one that I am sure you could care less about. However, when I find alternate uses of things that previously had ...
Unravel Your Life With This Creatively Morbid Calendar
I can't decide if this is creatively cute or truly morbid. So, for the moment, I'll call it creatively morbid. We often read happy and cheery quotes about living life to the fullest and making the most of each day. I see these types of quotes daily on Twitter.
However, industrial designer Patr ...
The iPhone App That Takes You Back To The 20th Century
Technology really has changed the way we communicate. I remember back when cell phones were so large that you practically needed a suitcase to lug them around. I remember the time when my sister was asked to leave her mobile phone with security when we were watching a basketball game because the s ...
Poppin’ Pills Has Never Been So Geeky!
An everyday activity for most elderly people is to take pills to make sure their health is in balance. Growing older is, and probably always will be, connected to deteriorating health and a lesser physical condition. However, with a little exercise, you can come a long way in minimizing the chance ...
