An ex-Jack Sparrow spills on life at the Magic Kingdom
Like everyone, I grew up going to Disneyland. Even as an adult I loved it there and went at least once a month. I was an annual pass holder, though not like the freaky ones you may have heard of. I’d see the park’s characters and think, “It’d be so cool to work here.” But there was never a character I really...

Why Motivation Doesn’t Really Matter →
Have you ever really wanted to do something, but you just weren’t motivated enough to do it?
This is always my number one reason for not taking action, as I’m sure it’s probably yours too. If you’re not motivated, you just don’t have the energy or the drive to do what you need to do, right? Simple enough.
But here’s three of the biggest problems with relying on being highly motivated all the...

6 Valuable (And Disgusting) Ways They're Reusing... →
We live in an era of recycling, where hippies scream in horror if they spot a soda can in the garbage and go into convulsions at the thought of a landfill full of paper. But if you think glass bottles, milk jugs and CSI are the only things that can be recycled, read on. The next dump you take could be used to build a school in Japan.

Cool Futuristic/Concept Gadgets That Really... →
About 10 years ago, we didn’t really expect the 1.4mb 3.5 inch floppy to evolve into flash drives 10x smaller with storage capacity as big as 32gb. The interesting thing about technology is it’s just going to get more and more high-end, but the size is just going to get smaller and slimmer.
These concept gadgets have an extremely high chance of getting into production anywhere in the...

Geek Pick-Up Lines on Twitter Explained →
All day yesterday, Twitter was flooded with folks tweeting each other “geek pick-up lines.” The microblogging service’s 140-character limit actually makes it a good format to exchange such information, as any pick-up line over 140 characters would qualify as more of an awkward monologue. Using a rough formula of quality and times tweeted and re-tweeted, we’ve compiled a...

Top 10 Ways to Provoke a Geek Argument →
Geeks, as a general rule, are pretty easy-going. We like to think things through, so passionate confrontations aren’t commonplace for us. When we get well and properly provoked, though, watch out! We won’t stop talking until every last point that we can think of has been made at least twice. So, what do you say to provoke a geek? Glad you asked!

5 Diabolical Animals That Out-Witted Humans →
Whether or not humans are the smartest species on the planet really depends on which animals and which humans you base it on. After all, sometimes when people match wits with members of the animal kingdom, it doesn’t turn out well for the humans.

"Web 2.0" crowned as millionth English word →
A US-based language monitoring group crowned Web 2.0 as the one millionth word or phrase in the English language, although other linguists slammed it as nonsense and a stunt. The Global Language Monitor, which uses a math formula to track the frequency of words and phrases in print and electronic media, said Web 2.0 appeared over 25 000 times in searches and was widely accepted, making it the...

17-Year-Old Thinks She's Getting Into Photography →
After wasting an afternoon taking pictures of a broken tricycle, moss on trees, and the shadow of a wrought-iron fence, Churchill Alternative High School senior Jessica Ivers falsely informed family and friends Saturday that she was getting into photography. “I love the way real film looks,” said Ivers, who has owned the old single-lens reflex 35 millimeter camera for exactly one week,...

Matthew's non theme based fancy dress party →
A few weeks ago, a guy moved into the apartment across from me. I know little about him apart from the fact that he owns cane furniture as I saw the delivery guys carry it up. I bumped into him on the stairs once and he said hello but I cannot be friends with someone that owns cane furniture so I pretended I had a turtle to feed or something. Last week when I checked my mailbox, I found that my...

Why our "amazing" science fiction future fizzled →
At the 1964 New York World’s Fair, people stood in line for hours to look at a strange sight.
They wanted to see the “Futurama,” a miniaturized replica of a typical 21st century American city that featured moving sidewalks, computer-guided cars zipping along congestion-free highways and resort hotels beneath the sea.
Forty years later, we’re still waiting for those...
