Oreo-Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies

Whoever bakes these deserves a special prize and should hand the cookies over to me. You know, for quality control.

STARPRISE ENTERSHIP

Cake: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the Starprise Entership. Wait, what? No it ain’t!

I love cake. I love geek cakes. And I love geek fail cakes.

~~The voices in my head~~ Bothan spies tell me that what a first looks like a brilliant cake wreck is in reality a cleverly orchestrated prank on a Star Trek nerd. Imagine his face, waiting all happy for his birthday cake and then this blasphemous piece of dough, jam and icing makes its way onto the table …

KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!
Nerd rage – it’s not pretty.

Wampa Cake

chris — Wed, 15 Sep 2010 13:32:31 +0000

If you’re like me then you’ve always wondered what all those creatures from the Star Wars movies would taste like. Oh, you’re still reading? Ah. Well. Bantha steak seems to be a pretty standard dish in the Star Wars universe so it’s obviously totally normal and not weird at all to think about these things.

Anyways, here’s a great cake that probably does not taste like a real Wampa – because then it would be an ice-cream cake.

The Empire Strikes Back Cuteness Cards

The other day I saw these rather cute Chewbacca the Pooh cartoons over at Robot’s PJs and I almost got a diabetic shock, that’s how sweet it was. Now I have an extra insulin-pack with me and can look at these Empire Strikes Back cuteness cards from Katie Cook without health risk.

Wow, this is pretty cool! Sad thing this brilliant piece of pavement art will be washed away when the ~~apocalypse~~ rain starts.

Princess Leia vs. Ace Ventura

There is no escape from the shenanigans of Ace Ventura but Princess Leia and Wicket have a plan. Because Endor has already suffered enough.

JEDI JACKASS

chris — Tue, 08 Dec 2009 11:21:20 +0000

Now here’s a a fine specimen of what the young people these days call a “mashup”.

Take two sources that have nothing to do with each other and mix them in a video blender and out comes something new.

That’s how I would explain it. For a better definition you should look up the word in ye olde wikipedia in your local public library (if you still have one). Or “google it”, whatever that means. All this internet mumbo-jumbo is making my head dizzy. It also could be the fumes from the cans of paint in the garage I’m sitting in as I can’t afford a decent office. The life of a freelancer, what a joy! Thank you, world economy, for making my life even more miserable than I could possibly imagine.

But I digress.

This video features well known Star Wars characters doing crazy things that you would normally see on the MTV show Jackass (also available on DVD, you know.) That’s why it’s called Jedi Jackass and it works suprisingly well. I can imagine that this is what the people in the Star Wars universe are up to when there’s nothing to watch on holonet, or all the womp rats have been shot but there’s still time to waste.

Can these reviews from well-renowned papers lie?

“A new low”
-Bespin Star

“A plunge into depravity”
-Mos Eisley News

No, they can’t. So you know it’s good. Because it’s bad. And this Star Wars/Jackass mashup is tantalisingly awesome. Really.

And I thought they smelled bad on the outside!

Especially if you don’t wash it…

Its the Tauntaun Sleeping Bag!

Please note the “guts pattern” lining.

Almost makes me want to have kids.

Almost.

Real Life 8Bit Waterslide Ride

chris — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 15:18:30 +0000

Yes, you read that right.

An 8Bit waterslide ride in real life.

Of course, this fantastic video was yet again done by people with much more talent, creativity and attention for detail than me, but that won’t surprise any of you (mum, dad – thanks for stopping by).

The video is an entry in a competition from Barclaycard, a credit card company that probably won’t exist in 12 months. Unlike this video. It will stay with you forever – just like that weird rash that you caught on your holiday in Mexico.
