As most geeks, I love t-shirts, especially geeky-looking ones. There are a lot of great online t-shirt shops on the world wide web, but going through them all to find what you really want can be a hassle. Enter Teenormous, an awesome t-shirt search engine that not only searches all the coolest tee sites on […]

By Jimmy Rogers Contributing Writer, [GAS] Do you need to geek up your Halloween festivities? Why not look to the most classic of all Halloween traditions…the pumpkin!

by Casey Lynn Contributing Writer, [GAS] Apparently I’m not the only one with fictional geeks on the brain lately. In honor of the rumored Facebook movie, The Guardian posted some photographs of the greatest geeks to have graced the silver screen. Though many of their picks aren’t exactly “fictional”–Steve Jobs and Bill Gates as portrayed […]
By Jimmy Rogers Contributing Writer, [GAS] Where Anchorman left off, Goodnight Burbank picks right back up and keeps rolling. In the show, a bunch of ornery, crazy, and sometimes lovable news anchors try to keep it all together while just barely reporting the news. Goodnight Burbank‘s quirky style and entertaining banter has built it into […]
It’s not just ANY book—check this out: First, there was that amazing video on Funny or Die, and now… this? Yes, in this picture, Paris is reading Sun Tzu’s Art of War, the book used for centuries by generals and businessmen to overcome seemingly unsurpassable obstacles and dominate their enemies. Deep down inside, could Paris […]
Just when you thought you’d seen it all, British scientists have come up with “Anton,” the animatronic tongue. This squirming creation was designed to help better understand how the human tongue works and thus improve speech recognition software.
