Minecraft Swords
Minecraft fans, pay attention! It looks like an Etsy seller named CarryTheWhat has painted 3D Minecraft swords. Now you’ll have something cool to commemorate all that time you spent digging holes and fighting lava or whatever that weird game is about. [Via Boing Boing]

Geek Dog Costume Contest
The best part about Halloween is also the best thing about owning pets: you get to dress them in ridiculously awesome geek costumes. I could flip through pictures of shar-peis-as-Jabba, golden retrievers-as-Spock, or let’s say, I don’t know, beagles-as-Harry Potter. I am a simple man. [Via Comics Alliance] (they are so good to me)
