Interactive Guide To The Size Of The Known Universe

Note: No screencap is really gonna do the guide justice, you’re gonna have to play with it yourself (or watch the video) to put things in perspective. A perspective your feeble mind won’t comprehend! This is a link to an interactive guide to the size of the known universe (just like the title says — f***ing crazy!). It starts in the middle at the size of man (or a large lady), but you can use the slider bar to move left to smaller objects (down to ants, atoms, quarks , etc.) and right to larger ones (planets, galaxies, yo momma, etc.). Clicking objects will open a pop-up with more info. Now follow the link and get clicking! Oooooooor follow me home and stab me, I really don’t care anymore. Video walkthrough of the guide and a link to the interactive version after the jump.

The Lightsaber Hilts From Star Wars: The Old Republic

Note: The larger version you’re looking for is right HERE . Are these all the options for lightsaber hilts in the MMORPG Star Wars: The Old Republic ? I have no clue, I’m not playing it. They all do look pretty cool though. They also all look like dildos , so take that for what you will. “I’ll take it as you think dildos look pretty cool.” I’m fine with that. Preview your SWTOR Lightsaber’s Hilts here [swtor] via Lightsaber Lineup [nerdapproved] Thanks to bb, who doesn’t believe in dildos. Oh they’re real alright! I’ve seen one. (I thought it was vibrating lipstick!)

Sci-Fi/Fantasy Franchise Internet Fandom Infographic

Note: This only shows Star Wars and Harry Potter. But you wanna know how Pokemon, Twilight, Dr. Who and Star Trek stack up, right? Click HERE, RIGHT HERE DAMMIT for the whole thing. This is an infographic comparing various sci-fi /fantasy franchises based on their internet presence. Things like number of Facebook likes, fan-fiction submissions and Wiki entries. Apparently Harry Potter is the big winner though, which I’m okay with since it wasn’t Twilight . Although I was a little disappointed Jurassic Park didn’t even make the cut. Come on, I’ve written over 20,000 pieces of fan-fiction myself. I met a t-rex at a bar, we boned. I wrote about it in my diary. Haha, there’s 19,999 more where that came from! (It came straight from my heart is the thing) Internet Fandom Infographic of the Day [geeks.thedailywh.at] Thanks to Mark and carlo, who were both pissed Lord of the Rings didn’t make the list and may or may yes be into hobbit fantasies.

Life Satisfaction Vs. Age: Geeks Vs. Regular People

I mean, awesome if it’s true, I just know I’ve been on the steady downhill since I was six. I’m talking below the x-axis downhill. But maybe it’s because I’m not so much a nerd or regular person, but something else entirely. “A loser with no future?” *tapping finger to nose* Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal Thanks to Sinny76 and bobo, who are so satisfied with life they can barely contain themselves. Oh great, my favorite kind of people.

Make-believe anatomist Jason Freeny is back with another lesson, this time in the form of a LEGO minifig . You ever wonder what was inside those little guys?

The US Map Of What’s Coming To Get You

Note: Slightly larger full-size version HERE . What? It’s Halloween weekend so this kind of post is appropriate. Although, truthfully, I’d also post this on Christmas Eve and you and I both know it. I keep it real! Also, a constant 72F because I don’t want it so hot that I start sweating, but I also don’t want it so cold that my nips get hard because I’ll rub them raw through my t-shirt. I…have issues. New AND out of print ones. I’m what you’d call a hot mess. Except it’s only 68 in here so I’m actually a cold mess with painful nipples. This is a map of what the citizens of each state are afraid is coming to get them. Me? There’s only one thing I’m worried about coming to get me — the police. Just saying, you know how many skeletons I have in my closet? One — the triceratops I stole from a museum! What Is Coming To Get Us [verysmallarray] via The Thing People In Each US State Think Is Coming To Get Them [laughingsquid] Thanks to Casey, who fears nothing but fear itself. Pluuuuuuuuus crazy people with knives, stepping on cracks, heights, dogs larger than 20-lbs, sleeping with less than three pillows, mirrors that aren’t full length, and dreams where your pants don’t fit.

World Map Of People Who Google ‘Zombies’

Note: Larger version HERE in case you’re convinced somebody in Uganda actually gives a shit about Googling “zombies”. SPOILER: No. In Kenya, absolutely. This is a map created by plotting the prevalence of Google interweb searches for the word ” zombie ” on Google Maps . Unsurprisingly, countries that don’t speak English don’t have a lot. Same goes for Googling “taytays the size of my head” and “dino love dolls”. *whistling* Using a keyword search for “zombies”, the following map visualizes the absolute concentrations of references within the Google Maps database. The map reveals two important spatial patterns. First, much of the world lacks any content mentioning “zombies” whatsoever. Second, and related, the highest concentrations of zombies in the Geoweb are located in the Anglophone world, especially in large cities. The results either provide a rough proxy for the amount of English-language content indexed over our planet, or offer an early warning into the geographies of the impending zombie apocalypse. Hey, I’m just happy to see they didn’t go off the deep end and try to infer the majority of the world doesn’t care about the undead, despite the fact the word “zombie” is just a funny sound to them. And speaking of funny sounds: my freshman roommate used to snore every night but they sounded like farts . Plus stunk. “You know GW, sometimes the simplest answer is best.” I regret sharing a bed with him, I’ll tell you that. The Zombie map of the world [guardian] Thanks to Cristian, who doesn’t Google anything because he’s patiently waiting for AskJeeves to make a comeback. Jeeves! That guy couldn’t find a f***ing coat on a coat rack!
