Some Pretty Cool Stuff - Issue No. 011

Today's issue of Some Pretty Cool Stuff has something for everyone; The redneck (gay or straight), who loves drinking beer, children who want to get creative with their bedroom walls, and couples who love to lounge around, reading or having a conversation.

Cap Zappa

For the beer-chugging guys who have nothing else better to do with their time or their bottle caps. LOL.  This little contraption spits out bottle caps and projects them up to 16 feet. I'm thinking this would be kinda fun, but not so sure after everyone is intoxicated.  Maybe it has a warning. LOL. $10.49

Burgerdoodles Wallpaper

This actually is really cool, and I wouldn't mind having one for myself.  Sure, kids would have fun coloring their walls for a lifetime, but you're never too old when it comes to art, right?  Take your pick from a variety of scenes, from New York to Doggie Doodles, and witness your very own artistic talent come to life. $53.00

Loopita Bonita Lounge

Spring is here and Summer is around the corner!  What better way to relax than on your very own two-person lounge chair.  Imagine drinking some Margaritas and reading the next Game of Thrones book on this baby.  Feel free to check out the added pictures here.

Chess

Chess is absolutely one my favorite board games ever!  Although, I usually find myself playing the computer on my iPad, because my loving partner, Ryan doesn't like playing with me. LOL.

But if I had someone in the background watching a game with me and someone else, and they were screaming "hoorahs" every time a move was made...

Let's just say, it wouldn't be so funny.  Lol.

Boybander Duncan James Does The Gay Times

I think I've come to the conclusion that every boy band has a gay member.  New Kids On The Block has Jon Knight, NSYNC has Lance Bass, Westlife had Stephen Gately, and BLUE has Duncan James.  Sorry to burst your bubble, One Direction fans, but I'm thinking there's a couple in that boyband as well. LOL.

Duncan landed himself on the cover of the June 2013 issue of Gay Times magazine, and well, I have no complaints.  The actor, singer, model, and TV personality came out in 2009 and has since been doing really well.  Can't you tell?

Troll of the Day: Cupping a School & Candy Apple Onions

So let's try this again...  Who doesn't know what Trolling is?  Here's a very short history lesson.  It supposedly started in the late 80's, and at the time it was pretty much trying to piss someone off in order to get a rise out of them, earliest known case was 1992.

In the early part of 2000 it mostly had to do with being a prick on the internet because you could. You would pretty much be a bully and would unleash one or more cynical or sarcastic remarks on an innocent bystander, because it's the internet and, hey, you can.

But today, it's taken a different turn.  It's become the art of pranking.  Yep, everyone's done it.  It's when you play a prank on your sister, brother, mom, dad, co-worker, or friends by doing such things as planting seeds in their computer keyboard, sticking a thousand post it notes on their car, wrapping their desk items in gift wrapping paper - that sort of thing.  I've done it. :-)

So, do any of you care to be a troll today?

  

Isn't This The Truth? 1993 vs. 2013

Man, isn't this the truth? Sad thing is... I remember having all these gadgets.  Actually, it's not a sad thing; I'm proud to be a part of that moment.  It's an experience I wouldn't trade for anything.  But it is quite funny and cool to see it in this perspective...  What a difference 20 years makes.

Must Watch: Spacebound

This short film is about a boy and his small dog who have crash-landed in outer space.  The film isn't so much about what they're going to do with the little oxygen that remains.  But more about what they're going to do together with the time they have left.  Check it out - it's really powerful.

When Death’s door is only a few breaths away, how would you choose to spend your last moments?

The film was made by two seniors attending the School of Visual Arts, Ellen Su and Kyle Moy. [vimeo]
