Is this some weird plushies miniatures thing?
Ok, if ya don't know what plushies are, I am not the educator. This site has teddy bears and raggedy dolls. Except they are not what you would normally find out there. Visit Pornstarbears.
Content NOT safe. Sort of mild and cute, but not safe.

Build your own home theater!
I would like to give a shout out to Doc Dregs (with a "c") who shares the fantasy of a sweet home theatre (in each of our respective homes, of course). See what this guy did with the same dream.
Safe content.
Update: Doc is spelled with a "c", not a "g". **grin**

Yep, never underestimate what smart and bored nerds will do - especially where they are in high concentrations like MIT! They built their own dance floor - on a budget even!
Safe content. Unless you HATE disco (floors).

Star Wars Potato Head Spoof
Stupid, but funny - you know the drill. This is a Star Wars spoof and a Mr. Potato Head spoof all in one.
Content safe, except some might take small exception to the slightly off color last panel. It is a fitting end though.

This is your brain in ... all sorts of animals?
Comparative brain samples from a variety of mammals. Cool! Maybe Science Fare could use this as a launching point for something...

Those Crazy Canadians and their wood bubbles
It's like the Ewoks meet Rahn Engineering. Giant wooden spheres that work as treetop getaways, for the most part.

Lego Robot Uke
Say hi to Mike and Jarvis. Yes they are geeks, but they also rule for making cool Lego Robots play the Ukulele.
Safe content. Except for Andy. And me. Because if I get Andy back on the whole "robot thing" again, Becka will just slay me. With her mind.

Is it Kinky? Is it nerdy? You decide
I have made many trips to this site. Not quite sure how to describe it. Kind of nerdy, kind of wordy, but expect the unexpected at Font Fetish.
Content IS safe, but watch for loud music. Anyone offended by Betty Paige or light fetish kink might just stay away too (but you do really want to check this out anyway).

Gorge Pukesh would be proud
I am a big fan of organic produce! I remember eating organic when I was a kid, and all the variations that have come since then. It is absolutely hilarious to see one of the all-time favorite foods re-done as characters in some space opera thingy...
See Grocery Store Wars.

The site is Threadbared, and is a blog sort of about classic patterns and the story their packaging tells...

Extreme Origami
Now, I have seen a lot of sites lately where you can do fun things with paper folding, models, etc. So, I figured it was time for a new category when I found this site dedicated to what I guess you could call "extreme origami".
I don't have the patience to actually make any of this stuff, but I can certainly admire the engineering...

OK, geek time - encyclopedia of symbols. Safe content, unless you have work to do on the computer.
This is the kind of thing I can look at for hours. You've been warned!!
*** OK, This is a site of SYMBOLS used by humankind to denote things. Because of the mix-up above, I think the idea got lost - try a simple search on the site and see the interesting things you come up with. Encyclopedias are FUN!
