So, look at these beauties that turned up at my front door yesterday- Damn those turned out nice. Special thanks to the great folks over at D and L screenprinters for the great work as usual. All orders have been packed and shipped…look for ’em by the end of the week, or early next. (Unless you live overseas, and that means 2 weeks?) Check out our fancy Tube Caps- And, once all orders were packed,…
So I stumbled across this beautiful little piece of internet magic via a friend’s myspace bulletin, and well, it just seemed to blood clottingly delicious to not pass on. It’s called ThisIsWhyYoureFat.com and as far as blogs go (“The Stuff” excluded of course), it might just be at the top of the food chain…PUN INTENDED! With such delights as the coma inducing Double Bacon Hamburger Fatty Melt… …to the heart-stopping Corn Dog Pizza… …right down…
Just a quickie reminder- there is just ONE WEEK LEFT for you guys out there in Nakatomi-land to pick up the first three entries in our Invitational series. Once midnight rolls around on Valentine’s Day, those posters and shirts will be gone forever! If I get any emails from people saying ‘Oh dang, I missed out, do you have any left’ on the 15th, I’m buying a ticket, going to their house and eating their…
Shepard Fairey is a ‘bit’ of a controversial figure in the art world. If you’ve been living in Austin for the last 10 years like I have, you couldn’t have helped NOT seeing his OBEY and GIANT poster campaigns rip through the downtown area years ago. Fairey being the master of the ‘underground’ poster campaign made him a natural choice for the Obama campaign when it came to picking an artist to tap for their…
So…you know how the Department of Motor Vehicles, no matter WHERE you live takes absolutely the worst photos, no matter what? I win the award for the worst ever. EVER. First up- my last one: Pretty bad. That photo is probably around 5-6 years old. I look like I live under florescent lights, and that dark ‘halo’ around my face is actually a pretty pathetic attempt at sideburns and a beard. I purposefully didn’t smile,…
Hello everyone! We’ve been getting a few emails from people wondering ‘Where’s my first-round Invitational t-shirt and or poster?’ Also- ‘What’s the deal with your face?’ Well, in reply to the first question- Don’t worry my friend, they are coming. It might not have been ABUNDANTLY clear, but all Nakatomi Invitational t-shirts and posters are ONLY available for that ONE month in which they are offered. After that ONE month is up, they will be…
So, this isn’t exactly NEW, but…Robocop on a Unicorn is the best thing since Bill Cosby beat that midget to death. For real. Olav Rokne is the genius behind the “Robocop on a Unicorn” museum over on Flickr. A few months back, he and a friend were joking around about what the most ridiculous thing they could think of, and ‘Robocop on a Unicorn’ was born. Add in the incredibly Democratic level playing-field of ideas…
So, okay…if you’re not regularly going over to FailBlog.org, you are missing out on the greatness that is the interwebs. Although I must warn you- it will ruin your life for a week or so. I introduced it to the office at the last place I worked, and I think productivity fell off a cliff. But just as a sample- here’s today’s Epic Fail. My favorite part of this is that not one, but TWO…
For those of you that don’t already know, Sparks, the energy infused acoholic beverage, that has fueled many of my late…late…latest party nights, has officially REMOVED THE CAFFEINE! This comes as an interesting business decision to me considering this drink is actually rather fucking disgusting as it is…but who can turn down something that combines an upper and a downer in one sugar loaded can of glory? However, it’s official as of December 2008, Sparks…
