Domo x 7-11

permalink

While 7-11 hasn't won any awards for cleanliness (at least not the one by us), they do get props for their new Domo-themed accoutrement. Mmmm, slurpees... (Via Lovely Package.)

Unmentionable Cuisine

permalink

Calvin W. Schwabe's Unmentionable Cuisine was published in 1979 and continues to be the best of its kind. What kind is that? You'll see. Thank you, Google Books!

My Parents Were Awesome

permalink

So, once you stop hating your parents and think they're ruining your life, you start to realize 'Hey, my parents are actually kinda cool.' Then, later, it hits: That inevitable moment when it suddenly dawns on you that your parents were not only awesome, but probably cooler than you.

Beatles Rock Band

permalink

There's finally a reason to bust out the plastic instruments again. The Beatles Rock Band is pretty much everything I wanted it to be, maybe even my favorite game of the year. You can play with up to six people, sing up to three part harmonies with three mics (Lips wireless mics work too, bonus!) and also play bass, drums and guitar all at once. You play the 45 song story through the Beatles career starting at the Cavern Club with mop tops and ending as hair farmers on the Abbey Road rooftop. I was pumped to see Harrison songs like "Something" and "Taxman" in there too since I love 'the Quiet One.' The best part about playing this was seeing non-gamer friends go from "I'll give it a try" to asking which song we should do next... three hours later.

Leandro Erlich

permalink

One of the double-take inspiring projects of Argentinian artist Leandro Erlich is this 'Shattering Door,' which looks like a moment, frozen in time, right after the Incredible Hulk got all pissed off.

All the accessories by Venezuela-based Oh!Nena are named after girls. They're all pretty, but we're especially crushing on the Teresa tiara. How awesome would this be for a holiday party? (Via Kingdom of Style.)

Egyptian Hip-Hop

permalink

A band with little to do with Egypt or hip-hop, but rather four teens from Manchester who make quite good music. Take, for example, "Rad Pitt."

Marzipan World

permalink

It's one of those basic human truths that big things turned into small things made out of sugar are extremely appealing. This probably explains the eternal popularity of marzipan (can't be the taste.) Marzipan World answers your need for marzipan burgers, sea urchins, dice, lobsters and more.
