Steve and I are about to take off for a signing at a comic shop in Yaletown. Meanwhile, I’m still on a fangasm high from the premier issue of Adam Warren’s Livewires miniseries from Marvel. Warren’s got a genre all of his own, cyberpop, filled with fun technobabble, hot ‘bots and pop culture dorkiness. It’s […]

The lovely tokidoki updated to version 3.0 a few days ago, gorgeous as always and the new NINJA CUPID game is aces. While exploring the update I noticed the webshop (which sells mainly tees) seems to follow a lot of the same layout concepts of other trendy t-shirt vendors. Seeing as I’ll be constructing […]

Google Maps is pretty nifty. I’ve used it to find angry virgins in Vancouver.

I’ve been struggling with the recent betrayal of someone I thought to be a close friend. Unsure of what to make of it or how to react I think I will look back to the original betrayer: Judas Iscariot. I’d like to stop walking around with this knife in my chest and just let […]

In a follow up to yesterday’s cadaver barcodes is Design Barcode, Inc. which has developed unique barcodes that have a more interesting and stylish look to them than existing barcodes on today’s products. I find the work reminiscent of the stencil community which has used barcodes as a design staple for some […]

In an effort to standardize what makes a crime particularly heinous, a group at New York University has been developing what it calls a depravity scale, which rates the horror of an act by the sum of its grim details.

Your government already knows that the zombie threat is real and they’re going to do something about it.
Shaken by scandals involving the black-market sale of body parts, University of California officials are considering inserting supermarket-style barcodes or radio frequency devices in cadavers to keep track of them.

I think I would be horrified if someone tried to strike up a conversation with me through a puppet at a night club, but according to Don Diebel “The Puppet Method” works in attracting single ladies.
You don’t just have to use the “Puppet Method” in nightclubs to meet and attract single women. You can use […]

It may be Steve’s birthday today but I’ve just finished putting together a photo set of his hands working deftly on my birthday gift from back in September. He painted a beautiful blue robotgirl for me with acrylics which now stands near my “robotgirl shelf” in the living room. View the work in progress set […]

My good chum R-Lex always warned me about ol’ Supes but never have I seen such a solid case declaring that Superman is a dick. Hilarity on high!

Failing finding an Electra Cy Girl (at a price that’s not insane) Steve has bought me a flickr one year membership for giftmas! I’m going to start uploading some of my old favourites from my iPhoto library, put together some photo sets with Organizr, and get the Still Not Perfect Flickr Gallery up and running. […]

Girls, send a clear message to that special geek in your life with these boy short panties. Access is denied until the proper credentials have been supplied. You can never be too careful around those smooth-talking hackers and social engineers…

I got to send off my first official Multiple-Choice Correspondence on the 3rd, unfortunately it was form F2 which is for termination of friendship. I tried to write a real letter but found ticking off the boxes which best expressed my thoughts and feelings much less stressful.

I’ve seen candy sushi sites around before but never saved any links. Either you can do it youself with twinkies, rice crispy style, or leave it to the pros with some finely crafted chocolate pieces. There’s also the impressive Hello Kitty sushi you can make at home with a special kit. Traditional sushi is […]

While catching up on some of my favourite weblogs + news sites I came across some fabulously cute skull rings via Cool Hunting. The hardcore cutey dokuro (skull? skeleton?) rings designed by TaroShooten are something I wouldn’t mind being caught in but the Action Ring series is just bloody tight

While testing out Furl the other night I discovered The Mike Matas Blog which has a wonderful tutorial for using iPhoto 5 to create a 20 x 30 “Life Poster” using 98 photos from your library. I’d really like to put one together for Steve + my apartment sometime and have pointed my cousin to […]

The recently reprinted Rayguns tee from threadless speaks to me, especially after visiting the Seattle Science Fiction Museum yesterday. I’ve spent the weekended down in Washington state as a mini road trip with Steve + Tak which had the Emerald City ComiCon as an excuse. Good times, good show, good people and a pair of […]
