It doesn’t get cooler than this.
Living with Michelle has been very easy. We’re both easy going people, so there has been almost no butting of the heads. Even deciding on how to furnish and decorate the place has been a breeze. Still in the back of my mind is a fear that slowly our place will be taken over by feminine touches. That’s why I am keeping a list of items for my man cave when we get a bigger place.
The man cave will have plenty of Star Wars touches to it, which is why this particular item is a must. It’s not only cool, but it’s also very functional.
Why yes that is a Star Wars lamp and MP3 player alarm clock. Of course the only music allowed on this particular item will be music from the soundtrack to Star Wars. Nothing gets you going in the morning like the Imperial March. [via Think Geek]
Although I’m some sort of anomaly that doesn’t get hangovers, Michelle insists that it will start soon now that I am thirty. Well, when that time comes, I will be prepared.
Bacon Drink Tabs! The effervescent smell of bacon will be my hangover cure, and if Michelle is wrong and I don’t end up being a wreck the next day from a night of binge drinking, at least I’ll be able to enjoy some Bacon Beer or Bacon Scotch. [via Archie McPhee]
Think Geek has some unique things for sale, most of which are not very practical but still a lot of fun. I stumbled across this particular product, guaranteed to make your rear end burn. Okay, so that’s not that primary purpose of this product but still it’s going to happen.
Behold the Ghost Pepper in all it’s burning glory!
If I grow one of these, who will eat it? I’m not so sure I can eat this without turning into a puddle of tears and sweat.
Heyo!
LEGO has fulfilled so many childhood hours with play time. They’re now demanding more of my time by releasing badass figurines from Star Wars. I may just give them some of that time.
Anyone want to loan me a couple hundred grand to build the Star Wars galaxy? Yes, I need that much money. Do you know how many Storm Troopers, Clone Troopers, and Battle Droids there are in the universe?
I never understood having children’s parties at Build-A-Bear…until now.
Thank you for blurring the lines between gender segregation. This is my safety line in case we have daughters. Now I will be able to lure them to The Dark Side. It starts with Star Wars teddy bears. Then, limited edition action figures.
Chewbacca must be the worst Star Wars Build-A-Bear character ever.
When you have a wedding you have to be prepared to receive gifts that aren’t on your registry. It’s just the way things work. Most of the time it’s stuff that you would love to regift, but you don’t want to wish that sort of pain on even your enemies. (Who wants a wind chime?)
This is a triple slow cooker. It wasn’t on our registry, but I am super excited to own it. I can now have a chili cookoff between me, myself, and I. The reality of things is that this will allow me to cook three meals at the same time and mess up two of the three without making me go hungry.
This is still sitting in the box, so I have no idea if it will even fit on our counter or in any of our cabinets. Maybe I can mount it to our bed so we can satisfy those 3AM chili cravings without having to go all the way to the kitchen.
Have you ever had to grill up meat for a party and each person like theirs cooked a different way? Medium. Medium rare. Then there’s always that strange one, who likes his meat cooked well done. Seriously, who does that? (I’m looking at you Chris.)
Fortunately someone created this little gadget to get around all the guess work. Personally I like to just poke at the meat to figure out how cooked it is, but this seems like a novel idea for those that are unsure of how firm their meat should be at each stage of cooking.
I wonder if I could get this thing to tweet my BBQ status.
A friend sent me a link to this poster that I think is absolutely awesome. I told him I would buy it, but I didn’t want to make my marriage the shortest marriage in history. His response was, “But Michelle might like it. It’s leafy.”
Check out the poster here. It’s on sale today.
Although I have yet to do more than two hours of work here in my home office, I have it all set up for me to be productive. It’s very apparent which side of the office is my side and which side of the office is Michelle’s side.
This is a set of items I have on my desk. They are my Star Wars bobble heads. Except for the egregious error of placing a Boba Fett name plate onto a Greedo figurine, these are perfect. I know they’re both bounty hunters that chased after Han Solo, but seriously George Lucas. Get your product marketing shit together.
This is the other toy I have sitting on my desk. It’s called O-no Sushi and is based off this artwork by Andrew Bell, the artist behind The Creatures in my Head. I don’t know why I like his artwork so much, but it’s captivating to me. I’m glad his company is the one in charge of making the Android figurines. It’s just too bad I can’t get my hands on these damn things. They’re sold out everywhere.
Let’s get some work fun done
Guys, I know you wake up each morning wishing you were a little bit more like me. Here is your chance. Moving always makes me realize how much stuff I’ve accumulated that I don’t really need. I have some things that I am selling and giving away. Own a piece of m@!
Blackberry Curve for T-Mobile. I’d be glad to give this away if anyone just needs a phone.
AM/FM alarm clock with two alarms and battery backup.
Incase laptop backpack with pouch for laptop. Single strap design. I used this for my 15″ PowerBook and then later my 13″ MacBook.
Single strap design.
X-Arcade gaming controller with USB hookup. Download MAME and get some classic gaming going.
I forgot that I have this little computer too. It’s a tablet style computer. Viliv is the manufacturer. It has built in GPS with a car charger, and I believe it has a car mount too. I think it’s this one.
I’ve got some things that I don’t have pictures of yet, like a 10 and 20 gallon fish tank. I also have a Nintendo DSi XL that is unopened that was a gift. I’ll post more as I find more. Make me an offer. I promise I won’t call you cheap if you try to low ball me. This is your chance to be like me!
If you’d prefer not to be like me but to be like Spencer, I found these when cleaning out my closet.
Hello, there. My name is Matt, but on this website I just refer to myself as m@. I love all things Star Wars, food, beer, and music, especially The Beatles. I'm one who likes to be noticed and will sometimes say or do inappropriate things to get your attention. I'm perfectly complimented by my online and real life partner Michelle.
