Looks Super Nerdy – Looks Fun

First thoughts are related to the high level of dorkiness associated with wearing the Ninja gear… then I started wondering the last time I saw Ninja’s with guns.  I guess you aren’t supposed to think about this stuff too much.  “You can shoot your mates with soft velcro balls and…

Drank – The Anti-Energy Drink

“Drank” the Anti-energy drink (purportedly popular in Houston) is starting to hit the convenience and liquor stores.  This carbonated, grape-flavored beverage has melatonin, valerian root, and rose hips… all made to make you sleepy.

Future Retro Potty Pod House

Someone please tell me when will the fad for pseudo-futuristic retro organic idiocy go away?!

BK – British Knights

Right away, you either recognize this tennis shoe brand from the 80’s… or you don’t.  The BK or British Knights shoes were the rage when hip hop and rap was coming up.  I never owned a pair, guess I was more of a K-Swiss type of guy. If you want…

Jesus Sports Statues

Watch Russ walk on eggshells, you gotta be careful with the religious bits.  At first glance I thought these were a joke, they just don’t look real… but let me assure you, they are real.  For about $25 you can get a statue with Jesus helping children in the following…
