If Tom Hanks says so, I’d say you should probably be doing it…

My favorite kind of nerds/fanboys have to be of the video game kind. Within that section of nerds, easily my favorite fanboys are those dedicated to the Legend of Zelda. The series has been around for about 20 years now, and the fanbase continues to swell. People who like to dress up as their favorite hero Link now have an accessory to compliment that green skirt tunic.

The guys over at ThinkGeek have an ocarina crafted after the music device in Legend of Zelda: Ocarina Of Time. The N64 Zelda game is arguably the most successful of the series, and most adored by fans. You better pick this one up, before the hordes of Link followers get their hands on it.

Depending on where you’re at in the world you’d call it Robot Soccer or Robot Football. I’d just call it freakin’ awesome. Robocup went other way last week in Japan. Unlike other forms of soccer, this matched involved three robots taking on another group of three. The match was intense, and here’s a highlight from one of the goals (freaking goalie was like a statue in there).

I knew it was only a matter of time before cigarettes became techno-fied. We can thank Robin Onlines, an eBay super store located in China. Apparently, they have devised a way to inhaling nicotine by means of an atomizing device, battery, inhaler, and liquid container. Instead of purchasing packs of cigarettes, you simply purchase packages of their container, thus streamlining the experience. The nicotine containers have various levels of nicotine, all the way down to having containers with no nicotine whatsoever.

The applications of such a device are limitless. The most obvious is using it as a form for quitting, but where’s the fun in that. You can use it as a means for fooling a very drunk person into thinking you have the only cigarette in the world that doesn’t burn as you smoke it. You can use the non-nicotine containers, and pull your e-Cigarette out at a restaurant. Then when the waiter tells you it’s a non-smoking establishment, you can tell him it’s just water vapor and blow smoke back in his face. For the kids with low self-esteem, you can use it as a way of fitting in with the cool kids at school who are smoking. The applications are limitless to your imagination. So get in on the eBay and start bidding now.
