Mushroom Cloud Treehouse Poses Contradictions, Has EXPLOSIONS

The Mushroom Cloud Treehouse was designed and built by Dietrich Wegner, whose first and last name are obviously not American, since they come up with a red line under them, indicating an incorrect spelling. Colour is also underlined in red, as is aboooooooot, since that’s how they spell about in Canada. Am I right or am I right? Wrong – I’m left, since I’m too busy noob-tubing fools with my right hand.

Plasma-Watch Tokyoflash Analog Watch Features Purple Bolts of Death

The Plasma-Watch Tokyoflash Analog Watch is a great new concept by Patrick. Patrick who? We have no clue – his name is just Patrick, and he’s from France. Patrick has taken the novelty of those glass balls that shoot purple bolts of death towards your fingertips and applied the same concept to his new watch design. Just so I don’t get sued for salamanders slander, the Plasma-Watch Analog Watch actually doesn’t have purple bolts of death – it has harmless purple bolts …

Real Life Facebook Like Button Doesn’t Work, Still Awesome

Developed by Mario Klingeman, codename Fluentinjavascriptaswellasclingon Quasimondo, says this when asked about his Real Life Facebook Like Button. No, he doesn’t say “this,” I was referencing the below blockquote. He probably …

(Not hers, of course, I’m a cheap little man.) Elisabeth Redel has finally set a good example for all of those geeky girlfriends by making her boyfriend an amazing Fallout version …
