Oh My God, It’s Mega Man II Chain Mail
?
…I… I have no words. Obviously, making any craft with Mega Man II characters on it is pretty fucking nerdy, and you can’t possibly make chain mail in 2009 without being a huge fucking nerd (seriously, try and name me one good non-nerd-based reason for making chain mail. You can’t). I never would have imagined combining the two. Hell, even looking directly at it, I can scarcely believe this thing exists. I’m honestly shocked that the creation of something this nerdy didn’t end the goddamn world and turn us all into d12s or something. (Via Geekologie)

Robert Bricken is one of the original co-founders of the site formerly known as Topless Robot, and its first editor-in-chief, serving from 2008-12. 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.
