This TARDIS Graduation Cap is Perfect for Educated Whovians [pic]

May 17, 2013 — Leave a comment

It is no secret that I am not a huge fan of our educational system and would like to see it go away and replaced with something that makes more sense in the 21st century but I applaud people who can put up with all of the bs and come out with a piece of paper letting the world know you are educated. That is not something I have been able to do because while I love learning about anything and everything, I tend to get tired of the bs and constantly getting screwed. Anyway…

Since it is graduation season, I thought it was fitting to post this awesome TARDIS graduation cap I saw on Facebook yesterday. I’m not sure who Whovian is that decided to turn her graduation cap into the TARDIS but I think it looks great! If anybody knows who she is, please let us know in the comments so we can give her credit and congratulate her on her accomplishment!

If I ever do the graduation thing again, I might have to do this with my graduation cap just so everybody knows how much I love Doctor Who because while that is normally obvious with all of the shirts I wear, my shirt would be covered up by the gown.

Star Trek Klingon Imperial Coat of Arms Bat’leth Ring [pic]

May 16, 2013 — Leave a comment

I have been a big Star Trek fan most of my life and I think I would have to say my favorite alien race on the show has to be the Klingons. While I don’t share their taste in food (I prefer my food to not be moving when I eat it) I have been known to curse in Klingon on occasion and have the dream of having a Klingon wedding one day.

With as much as I like the Klingons, you would think I would be reaching for my credit card at the sight of this awesome Klingon ring below. However, not being a fan of jewelry, I think I am going to pass. However, if you like wearing rings and love Klingons, I suggest you get one!

Etsy seller Sterling925Silver is selling this awesome Star Trek Klingon Imperial Coat of Arms Bat’leth ring for $86. This Klingon ring is handmade from sterling silver and you can get it in sizes 4-16.

No Klingon warrior should be without this ring!

Even Men Would Want To Carry This Legend of Zelda Purse [pics]

May 14, 2013 — Leave a comment

One of the nice things about being a guy is that I don’t have to worry about carrying a purse full of crap everywhere I go. Instead, I just load up my pockets with a ridiculous amount of stuff ranging from my Nintendo 3DS to a small leatherman. When I need to carry bigger items I have a backpack I use but most of the time everything I need just fits in my pockets.

I have long thought that the very small number of guys that carry a man purse or man’s bag or whatever you want to call it are somewhat silly looking when they carry it around but after seeing the Legend of Zelda purse below, it doesn’t seem like such a silly idea anymore.

Etsy seller DisturbinglyAdorable (a fitting name) is selling this adorable Legend of Zelda purse for just $34.99. Whether you are a woman that loves the Legend of Zelda games or just a guy that doesn’t mind carrying a purse, I think this is the purse for you!

As cool as this is, I think I am going to have to pass on this myself just because I don’t want to be known as the “purse guy.” For now, I will just stick with my awesome Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess wallet.

Amazing Hand Painted 10th and 11th Doctor Converse Chucks [pic]

May 10, 2013 — Leave a comment

For as much as people seem to like them, I have just never had any desire to try on a pair of Converse Chuck Taylor All-Star sneakers. I have seen some people make some incredible works of art on them like the Yoda Chucks I posted in the past as well as the really cool Street Fighter sneakers but I guess I just have a hard time convincing myself to change shoe brands. Considering I order my shoes online where I really don’t have the opportunity to try other kinds like I would in a store, it makes me hesitant to try something other than my beloved New Balance. Anyway…

Speaking of hand painted Chucks, the fantastic artist over at Bobs Made created this fantastic looking hand painted 10th and 11th Doctor Converse Chuck Taylor shoes. Whether you are a Matt Smith fan, a David Tennant fan or just a lover of the color blue, I think you are going to love these shoes!

If they sold Doctor Who shoes like this where I get my shoes online (Zappos), then I might be willing to venture out of my comfort zone and try a different brand of shoes. Until that happens, I guess I will be sticking with New Balance and just loving shoes like these from afar.

Super Mario Bros Bullet Bill Crossing T-Shirt [pic]

May 9, 2013 — Leave a comment

When you have played Super Mario Bros as many times as I have ( and I still play it daily), you are pretty familiar with where you are going to see Bullet Bill come flying in your direction. However, especially for those that are new to the game, it would be very helpful if there was a Bullet Bill crossing sign to alert you to possible flying bullets with arms.

Well, such signs might not exist in the Super Mario games but they do exist on this t-shirt!

The nerdy folks over at ThinkGeek are selling this awesome Bullet Bill crossing sign t-shirt for just $18.99 (or $19.99 for larger sizes).

If you are looking for a great conversation starter about your love for Super Mario Bros, wearing this shirt would be the perfect thing for you! I find there is no better way to meet fellow geeks than by wearing something geeky which allows them a topic of conversation to start with you. I have a feeling a giant yellow sign on your chest will accomplish that quite well.

This Legend of Zelda Back Tattoo is Impressive [pic]

May 7, 2013 — Leave a comment

I love the Legend of Zelda games as much as any Nintendo fanboy but there are limits as to what I will do to show my love for the game. I draw the line at the Legend of Zelda hat and shirt that I like to wear as well as the Twilight Princess wallet that I carry with me. However, there are people that are perhaps a bit more dedicated to the franchise than I am and will go to crazy lengths like permanently inking their body to demonstrate their passion. While I have seen many cool Legend of Zelda tattoos, I don’t think I have ever come across any quite like this.

DeviantART user JMan31337 if the guy that is sporting this awesome Legend of Zelda Hylian Shield, Hylian Sword and Triforce tattoo across his back. This tattoo took 9 hours of work to create and I think it turned out quite well!

While I may not have the courage to endure that kind of pain to show off my love for the Legend of Zelda games, I solute this guy for doing it.

Fantastic Hand Painted Doctor Who Shoes [pic]

May 6, 2013 — Leave a comment

Having no artistic skills at all, I buy shoes that I can’t really decorate since I wouldn’t know what to do with them if I did and they would like like crap if I even tried to paint or draw something on them. However, there are some people out there that like to buy shoes that can be easily customized because unlike me, they have the artistic skill required to draw something other than the worlds ugliest stick figures. In this particular case, one of those people also happens to be a Doctor Who fan.

Any Doctor Who fan is sure to appreciate these hand painted VANS sneakers made to look like the TARDIS and a Dalek. Unfortunately, I don’t know who painted these awesome shoes to give them credit so if you know who did this to these shoes, please let us know in the comments below so they can get the credit they deserve!

Speaking of hand painted Doctor Who shoes, if you love the ones below, I suggest you also check out the 10th and 11th Doctor shoes I posted a while back as well as the black and white Doctor Who shoes that I think might be my all time favorites.

An Incredible Legend of Zelda Sleeve Tattoo [pic]

May 3, 2013 — Leave a comment

Event though I have been a huge Legend of Zelda fan all of my life, I have never been able to bring myself to play Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker on the GameCube because of the cartoony style that Nintendo decided to use for that game. My opinion about that has changed recently and I am now open to playing it but as memory serves my GameCube controller is broken so I will have to pick up another one on Ebay or something. However, until then, I can appreciate this amazing Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker inspired tattoo!

DeviantART user ShannonRitchie who is apparently a tattoo artist as well, inked this fabulous Legend of Zelda tattoo. I’d say they are obviously a very skilled tattoo artist so if you are in the area and looking to get something cool like this inked on you, head to Tuff City in the Bronx.

Whoever decided to get this tattoo is a bigger Zelda fan than me as all I do is occasionally wear a Legend of Zelda cap and carry a Twilight Princess wallet.

Metal Gear Solid Snake Cosplay [pics]

May 2, 2013 — Leave a comment

For as much as I have been a PlayStation addict since the PS2 came out, you would think I would be a huge Metal Gear fan but that isn’t the case. I have played one of the games and really enjoyed it but I have never gone back and played any of the others. Perhaps one of these days I will get around to playing them but right now my current obsession is the new God of War game. Anyway, speaking of Metal Gear, I thought I would share some fantastic Solid Snake cosplay with you guys!

Cosplayer Rick Boer is the guy sporting this badass Solid Snake cosplay. I’d say he does a pretty good job with this because everything from the hair to the poses just feels rights. The clothing looks great too! I look forward to seeing Rick’s future cosplay.

The photos were taken by Cynthia Veekens who is obviously a skilled photographer as well.

I’d hate to run into this guy on the battlefield because I am pretty sure he could kick my butt!

Custom NES Cartridge Rings Are Perfect for Any Finger [pic]

May 1, 2013 — Leave a comment

I can honestly say I have never met anybody like me in that I refuse to wear any sort of ring. Even when I was in high school, I think I was the only one who didn’t order a class ring just because I find wearing something like that around my fingers to be annoying in the same way that nails on a chalkboard are annoying. It is hard to really explain my dislike of rings but I see no possible way to convince me to wear one. That said, if I ever lost my mind and decided to wear one, it would have to be one of these amazing NES cartridge rings!

Etsy seller ohmygeekness is selling these amazing custom NES cartridge rings for just $16! While I would certainly be happy with either Super Mario Bros or the Legend of Zelda cartridge (if I wore a ring), you can have any game made for you!

I suppose if I had to wear a ring and got one of these, I would probably go with DuckTales or Battletoads. It would be a tough call to make and luckily I don’t have to make it!

If you loved NES games and decide to get one of these rings, I would love to hear what game you chose in the comments below.
