This is How Gamers Propose [Video]

I am not ashamed to say that this video made me well up with tears. We’ve all seen the abundance of awesome proposals and geeky weddings floating around the Internet, but I think this one really takes the cake.

With help of his programmer and musician friends, Robert Fink proposed to his wife Angel White by creating a whole video game for her to play. Totally beautiful.

Bummer that that the camera cut out the bit where he actually got down on one knee and held out the ring though. Still – too cute.

I’m looking forward to my own awesome proposal. Much geekiness will be planned for it.

From Knitrocious:

Ripley, believe it or not these toasty buggers are just looking for a face to cuddle. Cast your xenophobia aside and snuggle up with this little abomination. Legs have clips so that they can be worn around the head (you know, during sexy time) or unclipped just hang out.

Animated Short Film “Operator” is Efficiently Creepy

Director Sam Barnett premiered this stop-motion animation short, “Operator,” back in October at Los Angeles, California’s ScreamFest Horror Film Festival.

Something goes very wrong in the middle of Bob’s workday when the corporation he works for installs a new efficiency system. The machine he works on appears to malfunction, then gives birth to mechanical parasite which tries to attach its self to his head. As Bob tries to keep from getting fired while fending off the parasite, he realizes he may be choosing between his life and his job.

Holy crap, guys, is it riveting and creepy and shocking.
