10,000 anime plots have just been inspired.
The Japanese have developed a lifelike ‘female’ android. They have been in a race with America on this front ever since Anthony Michael Hall did this 20 years ago. The lifelike android is hot and her name is Sexy O’Sullivan…oh, wait, no it’s Repliee Q1.

Sure, I’ll assemble the kit for Amazon’s photo. What could go wrong?
I hope this isn’t costing them sales! Amazon.com’s Battlestar Galactica Colonial Viper was assembled incorrectly for the product photo. The wings are on backwards (unless this is a special model for shooting chasing Cylons) and the front skid is in the wrong direction, too! Hat tip to Mark Silka

Evil Genius?

Pinguin-whacking
I know I’m late to the game, but I’ve finally found the link to that Penguin-batting game. I’ve seen so many screen shots of it and not known what it was from. This is addictive. Best score so far is 307.5 by the way.

Terrifying!
I don’t know how this Guess The Dictator/Sit-Com Character works, but it is eerily accurate. You choose a sitcom character or a dictator and then answer the questions. I selected a character I shouldn’t have chosen because I don’t know enough about the character (does he have siblings, does he have a job, etc.). However,…
