The Peeps by A. Hitchcock

franky — Fri, 22 Apr 2011 07:26:01 +0000

The WaPo has used the money, graciously donated by its paid subscribers, to organize a special around Peeps for this year’s Easter. Peeps, the sugar bombs, not Tweeps.

A photo contest saw many thousands entries and several galleries have been posted online by the WaPo. The Peeps by A. Hitchcock is our absolute favorite. I think it’s time to watch a movie now.

LED Teeth Braces

Led Teeth Braces

If unlike me you’re some kind of sick b*st*rd who enjoys black and sarcastic humour, you’ll now likely queue up the next compulsory radioactivity joke. We here at Frankylicious are different though and will does not report on the newest hype in Japan or even dare to mention the LED teeth braces which seem to do the round in the land of the the Rising Sun.

Lest us even not mention any link leading to LED teeth braces or post any picture. Who do you think we are? That’s not our style at all. Sorry if you would have loved to get LED teeth braces, this site will not help you further. Instead, how about smiling without burning my retinas out?

How long though before these will make an appearance in The Simpsons.

I know you all got excited by this so far, with or without jokes, but let me deliver you the bummer: they’re only part of a promo movie for a Japanese department store. Bad luck. Move on.

The Best Damn Mouse Pads in History. Mousewhats?

franky — Sat, 16 Apr 2011 05:35:41 +0000

Apparently people do still use mouse pads, even in 2011. While most are more and more switching to trackpads on their laptop and laser and optical mice so good that they even work on glass, certainly ~~no-lifers~~ gamers love their super speedy and glidery [sic] mousepads.

Debatably it is certainly to those that Etsy seller DesignNoy appeals with its collection of retro video games mouse pads.

Go and lavishly spend $10/pad at DesignNoy’s Etsy store.

SPAM! Monty Python Ipsum It!

franky — Fri, 15 Apr 2011 08:53:52 +0000

There’s something to be said about Lorem Ipsum generators, as long as they don’t go ‘gangsta style. Or there’s nothing to be said about them for everyone who couldn’t give a rat’s bottoms about the handy tool used by many designer to generate readable dummy content.

This time though there’s everything to be said about the newest Lorem Ipsum generator because it does everything. Everything but baking potatoes.

How about some Monthy Pyton for your next dummy content?

Monty Python Lorem Ipsum

Or prefer some The Force spiced Lorem?

Star Wars Lorem Ipsum

Nope? What about The Simpsons then?

The Simpsons Lorem Ipsum

Still not? Ok, I get it… you want the Doctor, right?

Value of Master Degree – Is There One?

franky — Fri, 29 Oct 2010 08:53:23 +0000

I have to admit it that I have never been to college/university. At least not to waste several years of my life drinking, monthly complaining that I didn’t have enough money from the state and parents to drink, party and otherwise spend the most interesting years of my life.

That’s right, I’ve never been a student. I have bored more than one student at university though but that’s another story.

The topic today is a Masters Degree. What’s it worth? Is it worth something? I wished the team over at Infographiclabs had come up with this one. But we didn’t.

LEGO & Darth Vader. Now Your Worst Nightmares and Morning Terrors

franky — Thu, 28 Oct 2010 20:02:47 +0000

Know that feeling waking up in the morning? Your cell phone making horrible noises and annoying you with the sound of its alarm and the vibrations on your bedside cabinet? The nightmare of most of us or worst way to wake up.

Rather than having to wake up you wished you spent a little more time dreaming of how you could beat the Stormtroopers or Darth Vader even swinging your lightsaber through that virtual state of mental vortex you are in. Your awesome dream.

Or you might just have been reminiscing those earlier days when even non-geeks found it cool that you played with LEGO, AKA being a kid and more even… because you were quiet.

But what could have been a further successful mashup of Star Wars and LEGO now just turned out to be our worst nightmare.

That’s right: a LEGO Darth Vader mashup alarm clock. You can even get a Stormtrooper. For around $40 only.

Cool? Maybe but in all honesty nothing that wakes me up digitally is awesome.

Caprica Six is that you?

No comment, just facts.

I thought I would add something funny to this but other than that the image 3190pixel high is, I really have nothing to say. Yes, I know. That’s a novelty.

Maybe this should be part of a new series: motivational posters.

Cthulhu Nightmares of H.P. Lovecraft Dagon Statue Or The Best Octopus You’ll See All Month

franky — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 12:06:55 +0000

If I were to go live in the Southern of Europe, in a mediterranean environment, I think this would be the ultimate octopus a restaurant could serve me and make sure I would not touch. Not not touch because I don’t like octopus, I love octopus to be honest.

But not touch because it looks so frakkin’ awesome.

Except for one small detail, a really minor detail. It’s $249. And you can not eat it either. No amount of IRN BRU can help you digest this. So you’ll have to find a spot on your desk or coffee table for it. Now go order me one and send it as a gift to the Frankylicious HQ.

Women should love it as well because it’s 12″.

The Periodic Table of Periodic Tables. There’s Also Movie at 11

franky — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 19:02:03 +0000

Periodic tables are very popular online and I certainly am not one not to like that trend. Actually, I want one like this and a periodic table of coffee as well. In coffee table format.

But a periodic table of periodic tables? WTF? So this guy had way to much of time on hands, made a collection of different periodic tables he found online and then wrapped it all up in a new periodic table. The periodic table of periodic tables.

The worst thing about all this? He even got us to write about!

It’s almost as bad as these Twitter bloc-notes, but then again… it’s a periodic table, right?

Twitter Post-Its. Say What?

franky — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 14:23:15 +0000

‘WTF?!’ Is the first thing that comes up to mind with Twitter bloc-notes. Do they have a character count? Do they spread in the wild or do you just have to throw them out of the window and hope that your office isn’t on the ground floor but on at least 27th stock. Why don’t you just follow me on Twitter?

Do they only serve for DMs or how do you actually use them?

Am I supposed to stick them on the outside of my window because yes, my office is on first floor. See what I did there?

So yeah… Twitter post-its. I suppose you use them when all your electrical devices, connecting you to the real world, are out of power and you can’t find a socket in the wall?

If life truly is such a bitch to you, don’t fear and go download the Twitter post-its here. Let me know how to follow you when you do use these.

Pocahontas Is Avatar [SPOILER]

franky — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 03:59:09 +0000

Ever since James Cameron’s Avatar hit the commercial world, it was a simple grab: Avatar is Pocahontas (on LSD). Here’s more proof in the pudding. Spoiler alert! Or something like that (if your watching this on the frankylicious home page, hit twice [J] to move to the next entry!).

Disclosure: I am no fan of Cameron in general or Avatar.

If only Vader knew about their profiles

franky — Tue, 22 Dec 2009 00:50:41 +0000

The Empire certainly should have known lots more. Vader miserably failed and missed out on all the fun the Jedis and Rebels have. He should have kept up better with their Facebook, or do you think they had customized their privacy settings?

Terminator Baby Caddy

franky — Mon, 21 Dec 2009 12:46:52 +0000

Screw all the drama around MacLaren baby strollers. Hoping that your baby becomes a speed nut always is a great thing, but here at frankylicious we have other ambitious for our kids. How about a Klingon baby?

For those among us who don’t believe that Klingons and Cylons will be able to cohabitat peacefully, Chinese designer Shi Jinsong has created the ultimate Terminator Baby Stroller.

So You want your own model train set

franky — Mon, 21 Dec 2009 00:55:04 +0000

Of course many of us have had our train set in childhood. I myself had a Marklin and enjoyed it until 11 or 12. After that, of course the usual suspects started to become more important in life and that many years later my interests sounded more like ‘girls, booze and parties’ than Marklin could phonetically be twisted.

Still, their are enough of nerds out there who have given hope to get laid up and try to spend their time positively. Constructively. Cancer? Screw dat, let’s build a model train set.

First you’ll need something like this.

You’ll also need some sheep

and sunflowers.

Cars and lights.

Your own Live8 concert or was it Robbie Williams?

How about some trains though?

But most of all, you’ll need a really big location for your train set.

For numbers and more pictures head over to the Telegraph but let me tell you 700 trains, more than 10.000 carriages, expected to be finished in 2014, fourteen years and 13 miles of railroad track after starting the project. The largest trains is 47ft.

Millenium Falcon bed. It’s really a bed. For realz!

franky — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 14:07:10 +0000

We only just had the ultimate Marvel-Disney crossover and now we can follow it up with the ultimate bed for geeks and nerds united.

Best of all? It’s a double bed so you’ll have plenty of space to put your laptop, hide some cans of Mountain Dew and even then you’ll still have space left over for a tablet to put your Pot Noodles on. You get it, it’s a nerd’s dream.

Let me present you the Millenium Falcon bed.

Ultimate Disney Marvel Crossover

franky — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 11:43:54 +0000

Here at frankylicious we do not really report about news. There are already enough sites taking care of that. What we do though is report about cool stuff we find on ‘tinternetz. Cool internet iz cool.

So we passed when the news of Marvel’s acquisition by Disney hit the wires and waited for cool stuff to come out and this is definitely one of those things we have been waiting for: The ultimate Disney Marvel crossover by T Campbell.

Picture stolen without authorization, but THIS, this we consider NEWSWORTHY! And you should go ahead and buy your print fron T Campbell.!

Guitar Hero House

franky — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 11:35:26 +0000

Ok, ok… I’m slow with this one and could have posted it before everyone had already seen it but hey… boy’s gotta do what they have to do or?

Or something like that or watch the newest Big Bang Theory episode. Gosh, I am more and more starting to like Penny. Perfect typecasting.

Anyway. So yeah. Ric Turner just did it. No he wasn’t being a Tiger! In the Northern American craze and hype of over-decorating your houe for the festive period, he gave it a spin. Holiday lightning around the house? Sure, why not he thought, but at least be original.

What did he come up with?

The Guitar Hero House.

And the thing is fully functional. I want to see a video of the whole street playing Rock Band!

Nerd of the Week without doubt.

Bacon’s Awesome, Even To Floss With

Why Not Be Creative And Buy A Simpsons Stained Glass For Your Condo

franky — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 13:28:12 +0000

There are no limits anymore nowadays and if body art is one of the great and regularly covered topics here at frankylicious, we certainly need to spend more time to ‘real life art’. Like stained windows. No, not your operating system, FFS!

Windows as in windows, those small glass things you look out in the real world trough! Yeah, windows. That’s exactly what I said!

And why shouldn’t you have your own original Simpsons Stained Window?
