Obomicon

OK, at first I thought this was just too silly to post, but once I started playing around with it I couldn’t resist. Based upon Shepard Fairey’s famous red, white and blue Obama poster, Paste Magazine has put together a site where you can upload pictures and turn them into similar Obomicons. Stupidly addictive. Have fun!

Build a Squid

Actually, I don’t think that there’s much more to say about this, except to point out that you can click and drag the tentacles to make him wiggle!

Paper Scientists

If you’re feeling bored today, you can print out the PDFs at this site and fold them into little Albert Einsteins, Charles Darwins, or Carl Sagans. They’re not origami, so an exacto-knife is recommended.

Passive Aggressive Anger Release

Passive aggressive people must have it bad sometimes. They get all pissed off and angry, they want to be violent, and yet they are forced to look you in the face, smile as genuinely as possible, and say shit like, “You’re awesome!”

So for these people, these poor sad people who think that every negative emotion cannot be shared with the person who caused it, I think this passive aggressive anger release vending machine is perfect*. They should be installed in every place of business and in many malls and airports. Let the sound of smashing begin!

Thanks to And I’ll Burn for the link!

*Note: this device would be useful in situations where punching the person -your boss, the guy with the gun, the judge, the children- would be a Very Bad Idea, too.
