Three quick and easy Doctor Who Halloween costumes

October 1, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

What am I saying? These aren’t Doctor Who Halloween costumes. These Doctor Who t-shirts are everyday wear. I’ve a pal who wears something similar (these are new, pre-order only at the minute) and he makes it look good; he’s tall and thin, though, the bugger. I’m short and plump. Not so sure they’d work for […]

File as cute: Wampa!

September 30, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Once again we find that the Wampa is not the murderous beast that some people claim it is. Think back to this cute baby wampa or this rare wampa rug for previous examples. Okay, the rug is a little scary; and the slave Leia provoked some debates too. Anyway, lets pop over to Etsy and […]

Spinal Tap, er, Spinal Tape!

September 29, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This is Sparta Spinal Tape. It looks cool and funky. This will surely sell like hot cakes come Halloween and I think of a geek or three who would appreciate this. Amazon says this is “Tachion packing tape”. Confusion! What is that? It’s not “Tachyon packing tape” – although that would be impressive; time tape. […]

Ghostbusting? There’s an app for that.

September 29, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

An app for ghostbusting? There actually is an app for detecting ghosts, believe it or not. This decal for your iPhone goes further, though, and turns your entire phone into a ghost collection and containment system. Fine, yeah, okay… so it’s just a decal but would your average ghost want to take the risk? They’ll […]

The insane Moloch: cute and horrible

September 28, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This series is somewhat inspired by the poem “Howl” by A. Ginsberg. It’s about the dark side of capitalism and the dangers of conformity in the United States. Even with lyrics like this – I got to admit, these Molochs do have their cute side! What sphinx of cement and aluminum bashed open their skulls […]

Real smurfs

September 27, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Artist and talent Nate Hallinan has spent a ton of time pondering what a real smurf would look like. Smurfs are the result of a symbiotic relationship between a mushroom and a creature. Embryos of the young are emplanted into developing fungi. Smurfs have heads like cap mushrooms and which might be mistaken for hats […]
