Keyboard Cat PaintingFlickr user budcaddell has taken the most loved internet meme (right now), and turned it into a fine piece of art.

Don’t get me wrong, this painting is great…but it’s not enough for me. I need to hear the masterful keyboard playing, I need to see the nonchalant look on Keyboard Cat’s face as he plays off a guy who’s just been severely injured, or a kid who’s just found out he was adopted.

That might sound horrible, but don’t act like you don’t laugh at those videos!

Check out the full painting below.

Star Wars Party

Every kid needs a Darth Daddy to throw them awesome Star Wars birthday parties. I’m counting 13 kids in this photo. 13 Padawan learners are still not enough for the power of the Dark Side. Their attempts to use the Force Push are obviously failing. I’m guessing they bought all those plastic lightsabers at the Darth Mall. Hahaha! Get it…?

Adobe CS PillowsIt was only a matter of time before somebody made Adobe CS Pillows. Just look at the icons, they’re perfect for pillow adaptation.

Each of these pillows sell for $15, plus shipping; or you can just buy the entire set of 6 for $80, saving $10 off the total. They’re such a huge hit, it could take 7-9 weeks to receive your pillows. Then again, they are handmade, so what else would you expect? People aren’t machines!

I’m considering buying the Photoshop pillow, probably two; one for each end of the couch. I wouldn’t buy the Dreamweaver pillow though; I’m a wordpad guy, as every web designer and developer should be.

Head on over to MySuiteStuff to order your pillows! via technabob

Shark Attack HatNo, I’m not calling this kid a son of a bitch; I’m just taking this chance to use my favorite quote from Jaws. A mom from the Craftster forum made this for her son, thus qualifying her for an awesome mom award.

“I made this hat for my son – he wanted a mean shark. I saw the dead fish hat pattern and loved the idea – I just varied the pattern quite a lot to make different looking species. And felted it so it looks like it jumped out of the water and landed on his head…”

I wish my mom would knit me a cool animal hat…Click on the picture to enlarge.

The world loves pizza. I love pizza. You love pizza. This looks like the pizza box of the future. It’s still a cardboard box, but now it can be used as plates and storage for the leftovers. I always hate when I have to take up a lot of fridge space with the entire box for just 2 or 3 leftover slices. I’m not a woman…I don’t own things like plastic containers and ziplock bags. This can save paper plates, reduce water use from washing regular plates, and of course, is made from recycled material and can be re-recycled. Is that a word?

AT-AT Walker AnatomyWell, it’s another week, and here we have another awesome t-shirt.

Redbubble seller and artist, rubyred, has shown us all that these Imperial AT-AT Walkers are actually real animals, and that the rebels should be ashamed for harming such fragile creatures. It’s not their faults the Empire has captured them, encased them in metal armor, forced them into labor, and strapped guns on their heads.

Pick up this shirt in many different colors and styles for $26. Pricey, but this a shirt any Star Wars geek must have.

Dinosaur TattooCould this be the best tattoo ever inked? I’ll let you decide that on your own.

I think it could have been better if it were Jesus riding that dinosaur. As we all know, Earth in only 6000 years old and dinosaurs used to walk around giving rides to humans, especially Jesus. That aside, I think think the best thing about this tattoo is the attention to detail. It looks so real; it’s amazing!

I find this song a lot more catchy that those stupid commercials with the beat boxing and rapping. What’s even more awesome, is the guy actually gets the entire order right. Hopefully Taco Bell didn’t stage this in an attempt to make a viral video. If they did, it’s working!

This “Ultimate Combo” shirt was designed by Threadless seller and artist, David Soames. You can buy this t-shirt for $18; and it comes in “sand” and “navy blue”.
