Stupid Shit – IV

Alain Berteau Designworks is a Brussels-based architecture practice that has evolved into an award-winning product and  interior design agency.  One of her designs, called Pick Up Wood, is for clothing hangers… well, sorta.

Sold by sets of 8, these “hangers” are literally just hooks… requiring buyers to then go outdoors and find branches into which [...]

DIY #3: ‘Stache It Out

Moustaches are powerful tufts of hair. 
Luckily not everybody can grow one, but that shouldn’t stop anybody from harnassing it’s power.  That’s where the finger ’stache comes in…

Place same finger under your nose on your top lip (now do [...]

Flickd – Black Tie… If You Like It or Not

I guess this is how the ‘upper class’ screw with their friends who have passed out.  Why write “douche bag” and “faggot” on their face when you can dress them up as hired help… the worst insult in the book!

Ants In Your Pants

Viral video builds are a trend that don’t seem to want to die.  Not all of them are “cool” per se but they are usually at least interesting… and I typically like “interesting”.

Bon Appetite

I think I have been fairly upfront about the nesting phase I have entered. 
For the first time since living with my parents (which was forever ago), I have actually cozied up my living space… making it look and feel like my own.  Totally unlike before when I lived like a gypsy who wouldn’t sign a lease or [...]
