Every Friday we’ll get you hooked up with some solid weekend plans. These are the things we think you should watch, read or do over the next few days. ... continue reading
While the Tessel Jet Pack Backpack has exactly zero rocket boosters, we still like where the guys who made it are coming from. The idea was to make a backpack that was both professional yet still youthful and fun. We think they're pretty much spot on with that (even though we would have liked rocket boosters). The ... continue reading

We're not scientists, but we do believe most animals are born and not assembled by hand. (Except for the Gila monster, that dude's constructed in an awesomeness factory somewhere.) Still, we have to admit, these Animal Blueprints are mighty sharp. Styled like 1950's architectural blueprints, each piece of art depicts ... continue reading
Some part of the clothing purchasing experience always sucks. You buy online because it's convenient, cheaper and/or you're bored at work. But if you don't already know your size in fifteen different brands--assuming the fit hasn't changed at all--you're going to end up eating the return postage if it doesn't fit. ... continue reading
The female form is awesome. Comic books are awesome. Art is awesome. Mixed media extraordinaire Sandra Chevrier combines all of those things into a series of Comic Book Portrait Collages that are as eerie as they are fun.
It took over 25 years, but one of the most-respected sci-fi novels of all-time is finally hitting the big screen. Based on Orson Scott Card's 1985 book, Ender's Game takes place sometime in the Earth's future and could best be described as a way cooler Hunger Games. Take a look at the trailer and then mark the release ... continue reading
Best Made Co has a habit of redesigning things we never thought needed redesigning. Like the toolbox almost every guy reading this has sitting around somewhere in his house, apartment, garage or parent's basement. The bright red paintjob on the metal box might have faded or given way to rust over the years, but it's ... continue reading
ABC's Shark Tank has given us some stupendously awful gadgets and a few rare items that happen to be great (see: The Bevbuckle). Kevo would be one of the latter. The iPhone-operated door lock, which debuted on the show, was picked up by Kwikset and is ready to remove the hassle of searching for your house key. Just ... continue reading
We don't go around telling people how to spend their money (okay, we kinda do in a way), but we can tell when someone has spent their money wisely, and the gents from Team Galag have spent some $1.6 million very, very wisely . . . by building a Batman Tumbler replica. The street-legal ride sports a 6.2-liter V-8, a ... continue reading
You're probably familiar with the Corkcicle. It's a super-handy way to keep your white wine chilled and covered without watering it down. Only issue is, white wine isn't really our go-to drink. That honor belongs to our good friend, Mr. Beer. Well, the folks who created the Corkcicle have heard our cries and have ... continue reading
It's crazy to think it's been over a year since MCA passed away. In remembrance of the late Beastie Boy, the art and culture magazine, Juxtapoz, has dedicated their latest issue to the group and Adam Yauch in particular. In it you'll find interviews with each of the artists that contributed to the group's album's ... continue reading
If you thought you had collected all of the Pokemon of the bag world, you were wrong. You might have a messenger, rucksack, backpack, tote, duffel and a weekender, but do you have a postbag? We sure as hell don't. We also weren't sure we needed one, but this Chrome Welded Postbag might have us convinced. Made with ... continue reading
Bones. Cards. Tiles. Tickets. Stones. Spinners. Those are all names for the pieces in the classic "double 6" domino set. You can, obviously, also call them dominoes, but what fun is that? We never really got into dominoes, but we understand the appeal. If you're a fan of the game of strategy, you're no longer limited ... continue reading
