This Beanbag Chair Made the Kessel Run in 12 Parsecs
 |
?Yes, this is the awesomest beanbag chair in the history of ever. No, there’s no chance of you owning it, as it was custom made by beanbagger extraordinaires Woouf! for Adidas for something called the 2010 S?nar Festival. Yes, it is large enough — it’s 8.5 feet long — that you could have awesome, nerdy sex on it, while speaking those classically filthy Star Wars quotes, such as “You came in that thing? You’re braver than I thought.” No, you will never, ever get the chance. Yes, life is crushingly unfair. Thanks to Rengeek81 for the tip. (Via Geekologie)

He brought the site to prominence with “nerd news, humor and self-loathing” as its motto, raising it from total internet obscurity to a readership in the millions, with help from his savage “FAQ” movie reviews and Fan Fiction Fridays. Under his tenure Topless Robot was covered by Gawker, Wired, Defamer, New York magazine, ABC News, and others, and his articles have been praised by Roger Ebert, Avengers actor Clark Gregg, comedian and The Daily Show correspondent John Hodgman, the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Rifftrax, and others. He is currently the managing editor of io9.com. Despite decades as both an amateur and professional nerd, he continues to be completely unprepared for either the zombie apocalypse or the robot uprising.
