WTF is wrong in this picture?

I was reading through some of my favorite sites the other day and came across this great article on Topless Robot.

I don't remember Nerds mentioned in the Bible

Apparently, the Westboro Baptist Church have a few f*ckin’ insane religious nuts whose previous escapades included but are not limited to:

  • Protesting Heath Ledger’s Funeral because he played a gay cowboy in one of his thousand movies.
  • Threatening to protest Ronnie James Dio’s Funeral because he was well, himself.
  • Running the website GodhatesAmerica dot com.  Because we all know we are the next Sodom.
  • Running the website Godhatesfags dot com.  I got nutten…

Are going to be protesting this years San Diego Comic Con(SDCC).   Here is what TR(Topless Robot) had to say:

Because, as we all know you can not dress as a comic book character, buy a toy of a comic book character, or read a story about a comic book character without worshiping that character as a god. It’s an impossibility to enjoy fiction without believing those characters are the creators of the universe which we must acknowledge through prayer and worship (I remember the time I was young and watching Sesame Street, and killed my pet rabbit in the name of Super Grover. Kids sacrifice the darnedest things!).

I highly recommend you head over to read the full article on this subject.  Don’t forget to read the comments, I think some of them are better than the article itself.

Coolest thing since sliced Bread!

volcano, watch There are lots of companies out there that make beautiful watches, such as this Romain Jerome Volcano Watch.  The problem with them is that no matter how expensive they are, how exclusive they are are, or how Swiss they are, they all function pretty much the same way. They also fundamentally look the same, minute hand, hour hand, or digital.

They were made this way for a reason…so that no matter where you are, you can look at a clock or watch and know what time it is. This is true for just about everywhere…except Japan.

That’s right, the country with some of the weirdest sh*t, makes these awesome art pieces that double as every geeks fantasy.  There is a company named TokyoFlash that creates such pieces.  They range from the mild, like the Nekura line that look pretty much like regular watches, to the extreme such as the Kisai line that includes “Changing Lanes“, which is a watch that you need to follow the lines that cross over each other.

Kisai changing lanes

I wanted one of these watches for years but couldn’t bring myself to cut into my food budget to actually get one.   I checked the sites weekly to see what the newest insanity was that they were going to create next.  Well it is Father’s Day weekend here in the US and my wonderful wife, who has been going through her own medical issues and recovery, bought me a TokyoFlash watch!  The R75 to be exact, tells time in binary along with it’s own twisted “normal” time.  Plus, it is black with blue LEDs which adds a cool and sophisticated touch to give the TAG Heuer, Rolex, and Citizen watches a run for their money.

So, if your significant other is an Uber-Geek and you have no idea what to buy them, check out something that will stimulate them visually as well as mentally. I mean, who doesn’t want to take 5 minutes to figure out what time it is – especially during those long a$$ boring meetings?

So, I’d like to take a moment to talk about “Architecture”.  Out in this world of ours there are “people” who like to design buildings.  Some of these structures are amazing, awe-inspiring and just down-right neato.  Go ahead, do a Google search for bizarre architecture or structures (and not “Bizarre Erected Structures” or you might end up with a photo of Ron Jeremy dressed as the Eiffel Tower something bad.)

I could post a bunch of weird buildings here, but the adventure wouldn’t be there for, and hell, I’m just lazy.  Most of these oddities lie in either Dubai or China.  In one case you can find two oddities together…

This is the “Birds Nest”…

and this is the “Water Cube”…

Contrary to popular belief, Lady Crazy Face is NOT a form of architecture (nor is she Art either)… but if we disregard the nightmare I have just instilled upon all of you and ignore the lady with the birds nest on her face (do you think the keeps the eggs warm?), we can move and look at…. THIS

What the hell am I looking at?

That’s right folks.  Gawk.  Stare.  Glaze your eyes over.  Tilt your head in confusement… is that a word?  (It is now!  Screw you Webster!  …Never liked Emmanuel Lewis anyway)

This is the new stadium being built in Sochi, Russia for the 2014 Winter Olympics…  Winter… Olympics… in Russia…
The new stadium, designed by Populous, will hold 40,000 (frozen) fans and the crystalline canopy will provide the much desired shade from the over-bearing heat of Russia’s Winter months (which I believe is September- June).  Populous senior principal John Barrow said “It’s sweeping form responds to both its coastal location and mountainous backdrop, whilst its crystalline skin engages with its surroundings by day, and provides an iconic representation of the colour and spectacle of the games when illuminated at night.”

Wow… how long do you think it took to write THAT synopsis?  I bet that’s an expensive explanation.  And really, how often do you get to use the word “whilst”.  It’s like “Ye” but worth more points in scrabble.
My description would have been more simple and honest.  “I designed the stadium to resemble a loaf of bread made out of stained glass.”

So we have an open roof with a glass crystalline canopy built in Russia, near the mountains, for the 2014 Winter Olympics.  Considering we are nearing 2010, I am thinking they should probably stop discussing concept designs and actually build it.

Preferably with a large heating system.

Holy shiny stone! Keep Mister Freeze away!

507 carat diamond found in South America.  Have you ever wondered why all the huge diamonds come from South America?  It’s from all the dead Zombies!  I kid you not, why else would Cortes go down there?  It sure wasn’t the Fountain of Youth Aztec gold, it was to bring back an army of the undead.  Anyways I digress, check out this pic of the Rock.

Pacman fatality

That’s right folks! It is called 8-bit Fatality and kicks some serious butt.  I hope he puts one out of the dog from Duck Hunt getting shot in the &%#$#% head as his next picture.  Man that dog pissed me off.
