I’ve wondered why in every Alien movie why exactly the people walk into a creepy room filled with weird cantaloupe looking things and immediately put their face over it for a nice long gander? You realize that’s how you get chestbursters.

Donuts are usually the domain of sweet eats for early morning gobbling. You can get some savory donuts though, like the bacon maple variety that the fancy gas station up the street from me gets fresh every morning.

Check out these awesome cubic cakes created by French chef Cédric Grolet. This is exactly what a rich person’s Rubik’s Cube looks like when they want to eat one. Grolet was rated the best pastry chef in 2016 by the Relais Desserts Association, so he clearly knows what he’s doing.

Domino’s pizza continues its world domination of the pizza delivery business, by unleashing a new set of pizza delivery drones. This time it is happening in Germany and the Netherlands. The company is using autonomous rovers developed by Starship Technologies, but they are still working on their own delivery drones.

Funko has a full line of cool POP! Vinyl action figures and a bunch of them you can buy all over the place. Heck, even Walmart sells some POP! Figures these days. Entertainment Earth has an awesome exclusive figure that you will want if you are a fan of the show Ash vs.

Little kids can be both annoying and adorable. With two kids I can tell you this from experience. Sometimes they really are like tiny drunk adults with some of the things they do and say. This little girl called Rayna lives on a street where – in her little mind – a robot has come to hang out.

In space no one can hear you snack. Fans of the Aliens movies will love this creepy Xenomorph Egg Cookie Jar, though it might scare you every time you enter the kitchen. This cookie jar looks like a xenomorph egg, and it even has a facehugger lid.

Do you like pixel art? Did you know that when pixels are turned into their 3-dimensional equivalents, they’re called “voxels?” Well now you do. Pretty soon, you’ll have a fun new way to build your own personal voxel art sculptures, thanks to PIXIO.

Kids are super creative, wspecially when they have to be. What do you do when your mom won’t buy you a game console? If you are this kid, you build one for yourself. Twitter user Ama-chan’s kid brother created this cardboard Nintendo Switch because their mother wouldn’t buy the real thing.

If you looked at that Boba Fett bowler hat we talked about a while back and though it was  awesome, only if it wasn’t so Clockwork Orange, you are in luck. Here’s more of an everyman’s piece of bounty hunter headwear, a Boba Fett snapback hat.

Back in grade school, we judged how well off you were by the size of the box of crayons you brought to class. If you had that giant 64-color box with the built in sharpener, your family clearly was rolling in dough.

A LEGO fanatic calling himself Nick Brick has taken Tracer’s pulse pistols right off the screen of Overwatch and made them into LEGO brick sculptures. The builds are very cool and look very much like the pistols Tracer uses in the game.

Check out Kuma Films‘ awesome video of a Slinky fan and Slinky trick master demonstrating his impressive skills. Most of us just let our Slinkies walk down the stairs when we were kids. And they wouldn’t always do it successfully all of the time.

Analog makes watches that are made from natural materials. What could be more natural than cat and dog hair? The animals give it a licking and then these watches keep on ticking. I would think that the furry community would be all over this.

I didn’t like Game of Thrones at first, but the show has certainly grown on me and I like it now. It’s one of the few shows that I still like to watch the opening scenes of just to see the moving fortresses and such.

It’s dangerous to go unkempt. Take this. This cool Legend of Zelda Mirror is shaped like the Triforce and is perfect for your bedroom, bathroom or game room – not that you’ll look at it much if you are playing Breath of the Wild for hours on end.
