in gene we trust

Well hey, if you're gonna deface U.S. currency, it may as well be worth a deuce. This Gene Simmons dollar and a bunch of others (Batman, Ronald McDonald and more) behind the "via" link below the image. Rockin'.

you had me at 'personal robots'

Killer highlight reel of 1983's most awe-inspiring new gadgets: from portable cassette decks and palm-sized TVs to betamax recorders and (wait for it) personal robots "literally with minds of their own." Where do I get in line for one of those?

Bonus points for perms and special effects.

the many species of geek

I see myself falling into a few of these - thankfully NOT 'dewey decimal system' though.

bohemian muppetry

Sure, all the social media nerds (I mean "experts") are spreading this video around on Twitter, but it's still pretty good. This weekend, my daughter watched her first Muppet movie (not THE Muppet Movie but Muppet Treasure Island) so this reminds me of her. I'll have to show it to her over Thanksgiving weekend.

youtube's greatest hits

Even though this clip seems to be missing a handful of the actual Top 100 clips on YouTube (if you go by views), it's still a pretty ambitious mash-up of a lot of the most popular.

Might make a nice presentation intro one day.

comic sans is no laughing matter

Comic Sans is almost universally regarded as the worst font ever. Love this mock decision tree to help you decide when to use it in your documents.
