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.

Unless you’re some kind of nerd who has stayed way too long in the cave and waited for your mum to clean your room, you problaby are no hardcore comics or superhero geek either. You might have watched most of Michael Bay’s recent productions and even found the first X-Men movie, as well as Wolverine Origins, awesome but chances that you know who has what power are… nihil.

Don’t fear though! Although we are not nerds ourselves, we do know how the internet works and generally manage it to find the nice small jewels out there on the main world wide web. A free service for our readers!

Today you will need a little bit more time for things though because this is about all the super powers the modern day super heroes have. In one diagram. An infographic even. It will take you a while to discover everything. Believe me. It.will.

Without further ado.

Super Heroes Super Powers Diagram

With help from his friend Jake Keen — an expert on ancient metal-making techniques — the author dug up 81kg of ore and smelted it in the grounds of his house, using a makeshift kiln built from clay and hay and fuelled with damp sheep manure.

Pratchett, who has Alzheimer’s disease, also said he had thrown in “several pieces of meteorites — thunderbolt iron, you see — highly magical, you’ve got to chuck that stuff in whether you believe in it or not”.

After days of hammering the metal into bars, he took it to a blacksmith, whom he helped to shape it into a blade, which was finished with silverwork.

We would maybe make an exception for BigFoot or Alf but other than that, no pet animals are not the real deal. And so thinks Nick Drummond whose pictures of his preferred pet animal we gladly stole for this post.

Why? Because we can he keeps an AT-AT that’s why. And if you don’t think that rocks, well then maybe you shouldn’t be reading frankylicio.us.

More pictures at Nick Drummond’a AT-AT gallery.

‘Yes’, we say here at frankylicious HQ. Not that Batman isn’t awesome already but with lightsabers, now that’s the real deal.

But I know that we all are exhausted after this long week of ‘unproductivity’ and wish nothing else than to hit that first frozen one, you’ll have to hit the image to have a larger view of the flowchart.

Now you can hit the Vortex of unproductivity in good conscious.

Via interweb3000.

I’ll have two thanks. Until then, feel free to have your fun with your watermelon. Maybe you first should get some LEGO before you play with melons , still it’s awesome.

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.

Lady Gaga, Victorian, Burtonesque.

Obviously whenever someone goes totally Burton on us, we become weak. Add some Victorian style to the mix and we are lost.
Yes, I wished I were at the the concert at the Royal Albert Hall to see this one song with a 20ft high piano. Screw the 20ft trail to the dress but look at the feet of the piano.

The video is best watched without sound.

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.

Enjoy it.

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.

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.!

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.

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?
