Some people are too smart and creative for their own good. This dude altered an oldschool Game Boy to where he can mount his Android phone onto it, and use the Game Boy as a game app controller. [geekosystem]
A dude goes through fast food drive-thru's disguised as the driver seat. MAJOR lulz ensue. [geekologie]

You don't have to be a card player to need these. Official Legend of Zelda playing cards. [geekologie]
If you haven't yet seen the trailer for Pacific Rim, you should totally go watch it. You may notice a familiar voice in the trailer. Yep, that's the voice of GLaDOS from Portal, but only in the trailer. The voice will be a bit different for the actual movie. [kotaku]

LEGO: Marvel Super Heroes is coming this fall! If it's anything like LEGO Batman 2, then it's definitely a must buy. [warpzoned]
I'm a huge fan of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and I feel pretty confident to say that most of you are as well. Recently one of the stunt coordinators who worked on the show started releasing some behind-the-scenes stunt footage on Youtube. Why are you still reading? GO WATCH IT! [blastr]
Also, don't forget to check out my Minecraft series on Youtube. Yes, this is shameless self promotion. I can live with that. [youtube]

MOAR creepy robots! DARPA is at it AGAIN with a humanoid robot that can traverse crazy obstacles. [geekologie]
Science fiction is slowly becoming science fact. Those crazy scientists have once again laughed in the face of physics, or whatever, and created a real life tractor beam. [geekosystem]
Once again, someone has come along and ruined our childhood. Severely creepy humanized versions of our favorite cereal mascots. [geekologie]
To make up for that last link, here's a Disney themed Voltron. [geekologie]
When you popped in your NES cartridge, and the game didn't work, what was the first thing you did? You popped it back out and blew on it. Well let's look at this, scientifically, to see if blowing on the cartridge really had any effect. [mentalfloss]

One of my favorite shows, growing up, was Are You Afraid of the Dark. SNICK was my favorite time-block of the entire week. Forget Rugrats, it was all about AYAOTD and Ren & Stimpy, but that's off topic. Here are 50 of the most terrifying characters from Are You Afraid of the Dark. I apologize if I bring back your nightmares. (no I don't) [buzzfeed]
Most of the time we associate lighting your house and having it go along to music, with Christmas. Well a few people have extended this tradition into halloween. [geekologie]
