USB flash drives shouldn’t always be cute and cuddly… without the dark, there would be no light, and vice-versa… this evil 2GB flash drive includes an oh-so-evil price tag of forty bucks. A less evil flash drive would give you 16GB for that price. This one must be really greedy, keeping all the excess storage for itself.

Below, you can see the evil robot in action, scaring away the smaller, less evil flash drives:

I’m pretty sure he plans to give them all a colon cleansing that they’ll never forget. Because they probably won’t remember it in the first place, being dead and all that.

Everyone knows that the bad guys never win in the end… and it’s customary among my people to display a dead, bloody USB flash drive whenever possible. It’s customary. Prepare yourself to witness the most epic photoshopping skills of our generation!

It kind of looks like he lost a fight with a green squid, but I thought that the motherboard-guts were a nice touch.

I don’t think the title is long enough. Maybe I should add another sentence to it? One day, I swear I’m just going to put the whole article in the headline; that would be awesome.

It’s pretty obvious what is going on in this picture- there are several R2-D2s, and they’re engaging in some sort of montage. One is obviously cleaning up after a party, as there’s confetti all over the floor.

The other one is sitting in front of a giant, dusty computer, and it’s apparently being electrocuted, because it is glowing. Alternately, it could be scouring the web for online life insurance quotes, and the glowing is data being transferred. Because in the future, you can see wifi.

The last two R2s are obviously floating around in space and having a conversation while ignoring a box. It’s possible that they just left the party that R2 number one is cleaning up after. It is also possible that the stuff on the floor in the first picture is in fact robot puke. Aint no party like a robot party, amirite?

If you want actual details about this product, check my source, because I obviously can’t be bothered!

How Can I Kill Help You?

Fuji has come out with this cute little robot. Don’t be fooled! Just because it’s cute doesn’t mean that it can’t try to take over the world. Sure, they’re small now. That’s just like the door hardware to world domination- they start off all cute and 15″ tall… then, we start buying bigger robots… they wash our dishes , drive our cars… before you know it, everyone has at least one, if not two or three robots.

Then, one day, when the numbers are right, BAM! Mass robot rebellion. There’s blood everywhere, cars are crumbled in the streets and everyone is dead. All thanks to this cute little robot. See what you’ve gone and done?

Just in case you wanted to actually read about this robot, here you go, but don’t say you weren’t warned!

It should come as no surprise to anybody that the world’s first sex robot is a woman. I mean, everybody knows that we’re obsessed with sex. Now, imagine a guy who needs to lose a little weight… do you think he’d rather shell out a few grand on top of the line ellipticals , or a new sexbot? Also, this is one workout that you won’t get burned out on. On the gross side, you’re going to have to clean it.

Ewww. I hear that next year, this same company is coming out with a version for women- it doesn’t have a penis, but it does the dishes and takes out the trash. I kid, I kid… actually, it does household chores for the first year or so, then at some point it stops doing housework and it just sits around the house watching football and drinking beer.

get more details, including a supposedly slightly NSFW interview here.

Ever wonder how technology will change surfing? No? Me neither. And now I don’t have to, as I’ve seen the future of surfing, and it looks like it could become a very expensive video game. I mean, look at that place- this guy can’t even afford area rugs ! Ah, the lengths guys will go to for a bit of video game action.

Speaking of video games, I’ve been addicted to the most recent Banjo-Kazooie video game on the 360. I begrudginly admit that this game is loads and loads of fun. Of course, you have to like driving a little to enjoy this game. The real appeal is creating new machines out of a bunch of parts- it kinda reminds me of playing with LEGOs.

I would proudly rock out to this sweet looking retro transformers MP3 player. It is totally awesome, and reminds me of the ipod of my day- the walkman. I spent many an hour walking around, riding the bus and rocking out with my headphones on. Batteries were in high demand, and I would sometimes rewind my cassettes by hand to save some juice. That isn’t an issue with this SD-card enabled MP3 player. All it needs is a little cassette that turns into some sort of quadroped, and I think I might just jizz in my pants from retro-nostalgia glee.
