Daily Graffiti
Triforce symbols and 8-bit Rupee sprites from the Zelda games adorn a gate in Cork, Ireland thanks to this clever piece submitted to our Geek Graffiti Flickr Pool by Starman Super.

DA-NA-NA-NAAA! Clever Triforce graffiti spotted by Christopher Allen in an upper floor of City Methodist Church in Gary, Indiana of all places.

A Little Bit on the Triforce Cutting Board Side: I enjoy cutting things. With a knife. I’m way too hardcore to use a cutting board, but for the sake of argument, if I were to buy one, it would probably be this one with a Triforce in it. It would give me the courage, power, and wisdom to cut, chop, and dice like no other.
A Little Bit On The Sweet Haircut, Bro! Side: The Triforce crest from the Legend of Zelda series is a pretty iconic symbol in geekdom. Flickr user Boon Cotter thought it was awesome enough to get shaved into his domepiece.
A Little Bit On The Snow Sculptural Side: Redditor revivemorrison and his bros made this Triforce snow sculpture for the Jack Frost Children’s Winterfest in Charlottetown, PEI a few years ago. Something about this makes us wonder if there’s any Goatse snow sculptures out there…
A Little Bit On The Customized Side: OSKUNK! managed to make an oldschool Game Boy even more awesome by giving it an ultra delicious Zelda makeover. It’s okay, feel free to drool.

This tee by MangaKid puts a geeky spin on the iconic Ramones “Presidential Seal” tee. Scoop it from Redbubble.

The Legend of Zelda Hylian Crest Ring
This stainless steel Triforce ring is available from knil on Etsy for $55.
For the Ladies: This Triforce-esque necklace by Elena Gallén is all kinds of sexy.
Is there a word for necklaces like this that are meant to be worn backwards? Reverse necklaces? Backlaces?

Albotas Went to the Zelda Party: Part I
I freakin’ love NYC. There’s always something awesome to do. When we went to check out Rainbow City, we found out Nintendo World would be hosting a Zelda party the following day. The party was meant to celebrate the launch of the 3DS version of Ocarina of Time.
I was worried that I’d look like a kid-toucher, what with being a guy in his 20s at a Nintendo party. Luckily, the place was packed kids and adults alike (way over the fire limit, by the way). When we stepped into the store, we were handed a scavenger list of Skullturas scattered throughout the two stories. Some were surprisingly hard to find. After filling out the list, you could drop it into a treasure chest to enter a raffle for some Zelda merch.
There were some other cool Zelda-themed happenings, too. A handful of cardboard standees were placed here and there, replicas of the Master Shield, Deku Shield and potions were behind the bottom floor’s register, and a giant triforce stood on the top floor.
Places should do this more often. I got to shop and have a ton of adventurey fun. Be sure to come back tomorrow for Albotas Goes to the Zelda Party: Part II. We’ll have a video of the raffle up for your viewing pleasure. I’d post it right now but it’s taking forever to render.
Toblerone Triforce by Beau Buckley. Would have been awesome if “du-nu-nu-nuuuhhh!” blared over the grocery store speakers.
