EXTRALIFE – By Scott Johnson

I have only played beer pong on a couple occasions and kind of though the entire “sport” was dumb. I’d be much more interested if I played on one of these tables. These are custom made beer pong tables with artwork from various pop-culture sources such as The Legend of Zelda, Star Wars, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, and so on. For my money the Legend of Zelda table is amazing. The entire over world map from the original game on a beer pong table.

Be warned some of the lyrics are not safe for work…enjoy!

I love data visualized in interesting ways. A video showing various data from the Apollo 11 mission has been released. The video includes an interactive timeline of the mission. There are various graphs, charts and audio of the operation. This is a very cool way to visualize something like this.

Have you ever wondered what made Darth Vader such a great project manager? This list points out all the ways that Vader was great at management. For example the list points out his ability to change his team as situations dictated. Admiral Ozzel messes up and Vader replaces him. Its things like this that made Vader a great project manager.

When I was eleven I had a Mario cake for my birthday party. The cake didn’t taste all that great but it looked awesome. Check out some of these other geeky food items. There are various cakes designed to look like video game consoles, Star Wars pizzas, a cake of Luke inside of a Tauntaun, Star Trek waffles and so on. Some very creative uses of food to create all of these items. There are some tech items as well such as iPhone app icon cupcakes and an Android cake.

Cracked has released a list of the top thirty six worst action figures ever. I actually had a couple of these when I was a kid. Its not really surprising that a good portion of them are from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles toy line. Their first couple sets of figures were pretty good and were taken from the cartoon series. As more and more figures were released they started getting weird, really weird. There are a couple Masters of The Universe figures in this list. A friend of mine had the Stinkor figure and it really did emit a horrible odor. This figure is on the list as well.
