Dorknightly Roundup – 24/04/10

Ass pinching robots! Run!
OK, OK, I missed a week, I know. That’s why we’re calling this week’s Geekly Round-up the Dorknightly Roundup. If you think the pun is worse than usual, complain to Matt, it was his idea.
To kick things off this week, I’ve been preoccupied with toys … or with playing with things. I have a Gaius Baltar figure that sat on my desk at work and he’s been having adventures throughout the office. Though he didn’t enjoy his swim in the Coffeena Lake.
Speaking of that elixir of the Gods, I’ve been looking for a new mug lately. This one, the MyCuppa from Suck.Uk, is pretty much perfect for when I get my robotic minions. Or the off chance someone else makes me a drink that isn’t alcoholic. Yeah, OK, that isn’t going to happen often, but a girl can dream, right?
As with all things Justified and Ancient, those down in the before places, I am very much in love with these cute little Cthulu Amigurumi toys. Nothing says love like a tiny crocheted Elder God! Best of all, 70% of the profit from these toys goes to charity. So you can feel a bit better about finding a madness inducing Thing That Should Not Be adorable.
Coming up next week, here in Melbourne AU, is the Annual Zombie Shuffle! After three years of attending this event, I’m resorting to Google to find costume inspiration, but this little guy has put my mind at ease, if not my brains. Now, if only I can dismember Matty in such a cute, bloodless way.
If not, I can pretend to be the unholy monster of science I really am, by setting up this Angry Mob Playset outside the toilet door. Why the toilet? I, uh … well …
Quick! Defend yourself against the PIXELS!
