Futurama/X-Men Mash Up

I love pop culture fan art like this. This is in imaginative look at Futurama if they were the X-Men. I like the idea of Captain Zapp Brannigan as Magneto, since he's definitely the villain.

Comic Book Shoes!

I love these shoes! If I had the money, I'd scoop these up ASAP.

Made from recycled shoes and comics, this is a great statement accessory for any girl proud enough to be a nerd! 

She makes them custom for each order so you can even get them with a particular comic book character in mind.

To order a pair, visit Nerd Couture's Etsy Shop.

You scratch my back....

These nails are intense! The girl must be a huge Super Mario 3 fan in order to put through the time this must have taken. It also requires her to be very careful in how she uses her hands, otherwise all that work will have been nothing.

Kicking it Old School

Old school NES for the win! These shoes are totally customizable since their being hand made at an Etsy shop. CLICK HERE for more info on how to buy them and what variations can be made.

If you haven't heard of Etsy, it's a great place where you can set up your own online shop to sell any crafts you've been making. It's a great way to put turn your creative skills into profit. I'm sure it's become even more popular with people turning from traditional jobs to freelance, work from home gigs during the recession. If you're crafty and looking for some extra cash, you should definitely check it out.

Go Green, iPhone!

I love my iPhone, but the short battery life is a major problem some days. Using the internet on 3G means I have a battery life of only a few hours. This idea is genius! Solar powered casing would help with the battery problem while protecting the phone. For more info, check out the article over at Mashable.

No Zombie Cats?

This cake proves that cats will be immune to the Zombie-pocolyse and could be the only thing that will save us when it comes. Just something to think about.

Which ones your favorite?

Resist Skynet!

So, I recently got hooked on Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles by watching it on TheWB.com. It's a great show and I wish I had started watching when it was on! I didn't see Terminator Salvation after the abysmal reviews it got, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say this show is better. It has action, character development, and is well written. Plus, Summer Glau does the not-quite-human thing so well. Check out the pilot below:



Also, while digging around online, I found these sweet shoes that inspired this whole post:



They're Terminator shoes that say "Resist" "Skynet". Put on these babies and everyone will know you're a resistance fighter!
