I’m Back On The Grid! (A Letter from Your Editor)
So, some of you may have noticed that updates on the site have been pretty slow lately. This is due to the fact that I was living internetless (just like the 90’s!) for the past few weeks. It’s been rough, but the cable guy just hooked me up and I’m officially back on the grid!!!
Stay tuned for a buttload of radicalness on the site in 2012. Thanks for being awesome.
VloggityBlog: A Little Bit On The Awesome Life
Another installment of the Albotas behind-the-scenes video blogs. This one is from yesterday. I wanted to have it up lat night, but my comp is slow and it took about 9 hours to render.
Still not sure what to name this thing. Leave comments. Subscribe. Stuff. Swag. Open up yo’ mouth.

Nyan Cat Sunglasses!!!
Yeah, we briefly mentioned them in a previous post about sweet Pokemon shades with matching sneakers and headphones, but this deserves it’s own post. It’s freaking Nyan Cat! Or, as the site description says, “Flying Space Pastry,” which - let’s be honest, here - is nowhere near as catchy as Nyan Cat.
Get ‘em from Dabber’s Doodles for $20.

Chrome’s Error Screen Is Cute
There are only two ways I can think of to quell a user’s rage upon getting an error. One of those involves an Internet-connected candy dispenser. The easier option is a funny error screen. I got this one while using Chrome today.
Update: Turns out the tattoo’s a fake and this whole thing was a viral marketing stunt. More on that HERE.
This girl got 152 of her Facebook friends’ profile pics tattooed on her arm. She says “These are not all my friends. Just the people I care most about. I got their permission and they were very proud to be on it. To me it represents who I am right now and the time we live in. And of course I love the looks of it.”
This chick’s gonna’ feel SO stupid when one of her “friends” turns out to be a jerk and she removes them from her friends list and still has their face on her arm.
+1,000 awesomepoints for a sexy grid tattoo, though.
CLICK HERE for a vid of the tat getting tatted by a pretty tattooer who looks kind of like Brooke Shields.

Real Tweet is a project by Phlance+Patrick that turns Twitter’s iconic “What’s happening?” form into an oversized sticker so that you can place your tweets wherever you want.
As fans of geeky street art, we can see these being popular among the sticker tagging crowd.
