Dyss Orderly



When the sun goes down and the doctors leave, the Dyss roams the halls of hospitals and asylums as an orderly, nurse, or caregiver.

A forgotten creature of chaos, the Dyss feeds on the patient's sanity and leaves behind a vomit slick of fear, confusion and madness.

Zombies, Vampires, and More Zombies

Wrap your Braaains around these fine and informative sites:

DEAD FUNNY, a vaudeville comic about zombies. Perhaps the only vaudeville comic about zombies.

West Side Story zombie trailer - This proves that the art of the horror movie trailer has been mastered - so be warned the next time a scary trailer appeals to you (example: The Fog, Stay)

Monster Island - This free trilogy of serialized on-line novels about the zombie apocalypse is dangerously addictive.

The Federal Vampire and Zombie Agency - Hard hitting facts and emergency information to help you protect your family. Included is a handy chart about that age old issue:

Zombies vs. Vampires

Frankenstein's Octopus

Thursday, October 20, 2005

Aggropus



Descended from the octopus, the Aggropus roams on dry land causing mischief. The Aggropus' favorite past time is inciting road rage. The clever creature uses it's natural chameleon-like skin to appear as a human hand, after which it will cling to the side of a car and make rude gestures.

When not inciting road rage, the Aggropus will invisibly wander through crowded places and grope people. Whether the Aggropus is a parasite that feeds off the bloody havoc it causes or is just mimicking human hands to blend in is unknown.

Bozo Sapien



When hibernating or evading capture, the Bozo Sapien appears grey and drab. Note the pale skin and tightly curled red hair.

When hunting, however, the Bozo Sapien's nose, hands, and feet become engorged with blood and swell up. The neck frill extends along with the red afro. The skin takes on a colorful irridescent sheen, to lure in the Bozo Sapien's primary food source: Children and small pets.

Evil VHS Tape



With the rapid obsolescence of technology, accursed media such as the 'Evil Tape' will soon no longer pose a threat.

At present, only poor people and luddites are at risk of falling victim to the Evil VHS Tape. Soon these Evil tapes will go the way of the Demonic 8 Track.

Pythalligator !



The deadly Pythalligator - Part Python, Part Alligator: All Florida!

Due to the population explosion of Burmese Pythons in the Florida Everglades, we've seen an Alligator eat a python, and a Python eat an alligator (and then explode).

But I think it's only a matter of time before they settle their differences long enough to spawn a hideous scaly lovechild.

Fem-bots at last

The geniuses at Kokoro Dreams have created the Actroid,
"A female-type reception robot... bearing a striking resemblance to a woman with a good command of four languages".

The Actroid can speak and understand conversations in English, Korean, Chinese, and Japanese.

The actroid comes in Renee Zellweger 'Down with Love' style:


And sexy leather clad Catherine Zeta Jones style:

But be warned: "She will be dissappointed and sulky if she is mocked".

And then she'll tell her brother:




I'm sure with their smart and sexy fem-bots, Kokoro Dreams will be very successful, and then they can create what they call "Fun-Fun Robot World" filled with friendly robots like this:

When Elvichauns attack

I was checking out Bang Bang Bunny's website to get info about their October 1st CD Release Party at the Viper room, and I found this amazing clip.

The Elvichaun (Half Leprachaun, Half Elvis - All Rock) runs through a parade and collides with an old woman.

Out of the comics and into the streets!


Mental Pictures by Jeff Carter

I see comics and random weird characters just waiting to happen all over the place, so I was really stoked to find these two cool examples of culture jamming:

The folks at Thundercut modify street crossing signs - Link

and designer Ji Lee posted 5000 empty word balloon stickers on posters around New York and then photographed the results (some entries Rated R) - Link (if it's down check back later)

Pocky Day Review - Reverse Strawberry



FLAVOR: Reverse Strawberry Pocky
NOTES: Another tasty addition to the Reverse Pocky family! This Pocky is so rare I could not even find a picture of it online, so I had to take my own.
RATING: 7 out of 10

While looking for pictures of this online, I came across MORE NEW flavors of pocky! There seem to be 2 new kinds of Decorer (White Chocolate and Strawberry) and 2 new kinds of Mousse (Custard Fondu and Chocolat Chaud).

Robot infested M&M's coming soon!

Scientists at Darthmouth have built the world's smallest mobile robot.




At 60 x 250 micrometers, "About 200 of these could march in a line across
the top of a plain M&M."

That's right - soon all of our delicious M&M chocolate candies will be SWARMING WITH TINY ROBOTS !


The tiny robots wait in Abe Lincoln's beard for an M&M


In an unexpected move, M&M is retaliating by creating GIANT M&M's.

They also offer custom M&Ms, as you can see...oh no! It's too late!

Robot Insurance

I don't watch SNL because it is bad. The only thing I miss are there amazing commercial parodies, like this brilliant one for OLD GLORY ROBOT INSURANCE.

(video courtesy of Robotcombat.com, home of the fighting robot Nightmare. Vlad The Impaler is still my fave, sorry!)

Inspired. Ro-Basket approves.

Robot vs. Ninja...Photos!

I've had a Flickr account for a while now, but haven't really explored it's potential for things other than free hosting for pictures.

The Flickr Blog is always posting about really neat things, so I've added it to my 'Blogs I Dig' list on the side there.

They also have a 'Flickr Tag Fight' feature that runs off Tags.

Tags are descriptive comments people add to their pictures. With the Tag Fight, you can enter two tags into search fields and see which one dominates.

Of course I had to try this with ROBOT vs NINJA.

AND THE WINNER IS...
