"Qi," "zi" and "zoa" are words you probably had no familiarity with two years ago. After Words with Friends, however, they probably end up getting entered in your phone or Facebook more frequently than some of the more commonly used words to describe dudes with popped collars. It might be called Words with Friends, ... continue reading
We cannot, for the life of us, remember the last time we held a floppy disk in our hands. The little black plastic disks were fun to take apart and hang from the rear view in the car, but they haven't been much use since CDs and the Internet. What they are good at though is looking cool/retro/vintage and that's where ... continue reading
You probably already know the benefits of using whiskey stones instead of ice in your drink. Basically, they cool your drink without watering it down so you get all the flavor you expect at a bit more pleasant temperature. With these Icon Whiskey Stones, you can add a bit more fun to your boozing experience. Available ... continue reading
Turning random pieces of hardware into art is possible, but it's not always easy. By the time you're done driving to Home Depot, assembling all the parts on the floor of the store, dealing with the weird looks of everyone in an orange apron and paying $4 a piece for pipe you might as well just buy something that's ... continue reading
Anyone who owned cassette tapes has lived through the torture of respooling at least one of them with a #2 pencil. If it was a cassette single of "U Can't Touch This," it went a little quicker than the mess a 90-minute Maxwell could make, but either way you had the desire to stomp the damn thing to little analog shards ... continue reading
For an artistic reminder of the streets you traversed in a drunken stupor, these University Map Prints are a far better purchase than anything you'd find in the campus bookstore. Sure those streets are covered in the haze of bong hits and the dizziness of happy hour specials, but they'll always remind you of the good ... continue reading
If you're anything like us, you have a thing (thang?) for rap music. We love listening to the coolest tracks and the hottest jams from East Coast and West Coast alike, but we frequently run into problems when we load up Spotify or Grooveshark to get down. We can't keep track of all the dogs, doggs and dawgs or all ... continue reading
We've never looked up at a transmission tower holding up power lines and thought, "Gotta get one of those for my foyer." To be honest, we've never thought much of them at all. The design must have caught the eyes of the folks at Palette Industries however, and the result is The Nanton Coat Rack. Such a structure ... continue reading
There's a reason they call dogs "man's best friend." Unlike cats, dogs want attention all the time, wait for you to get home from work and won't eat your eyeballs if you happen to kick the bucket. Don't get us wrong, we have cats too, and we love them, but they'll never quite fill the place in a man's heart that Fido ... continue reading
A word of warning before you purchase this Constitutions of Cocktails print: Don't attempt to read it after you've been heavily drinking! Trying to follow the connecting lines after you've been mixing drinks all night will make you puke quicker than a Betty White nip-slip. Just like all the work from Pop Chart Lab, ... continue reading
The names on this print sound like newly added characters to the game of Clue that may or may not attempt to murder someone with a candlestick (poor weapon choice, honestly), but despite the monikers, this print has nothing to do with the classic board game. What this poster does have to do with is two very different ... continue reading
If Etsy user "Classic Wrecks" sold mini lawn chairs and tiny, crushed up cans of Budweiser along with what they've already got, they'd have everything you'd need to make a model home's front yard a bit more Southern. What Classic Wrecks does offer are model cars and trucks that exist in the condition you'd be most ... continue reading
For many people, the perfect place involves at least one room with a view. Being able to look down on the bustling city below, or out at the expansive countryside is great and all, but sooner or later you're going to want to dim the natural light pouring in from that big ball of fire in the sky. You could go with traditional ... continue reading
Before we were complaining that Bane is less understandable than someone at 2am on their 21st birthday, we were reading about The Dark Knight's adventures in the pages of a comic book. The same goes for The X-Men, Blade and a whole slew of other recent blockbusters. We got the dialogue in little, compact bubbles that ... continue reading
With the holidays having passed, chances are you're inundated with calendars for the new year. Most of them are either of Dilbert or daily baseball stats because your Aunt knows that's what "boys" like. Toss 'em. Wouldn't you rather thumbnail something to the wall you'd actually want to look at for the next 365 ... continue reading
When Folgers so boldly declared that a cup of coffee was the best part of waking up, we had to concede that they were probably right on the money. Yeah, there are other things that can give that first cup of coffee a run for its money—oddly discovering you don't have a hangover, that first really drawn-out piss, ... continue reading
