Gina

Author, Designer, and "that girl your mother warned you about." Looking good seems to be my job, whether it's working with the site design, or a number of other more interesting capacities. I have a ridiculous sense of humour and a brutal sense of honesty- you'll see a lot of that coming through in my writing, so don't say I didn't warn you if I somehow manage to offend you AND hurt your feelings at the same time. On the plus side, it makes my dating and advice columns a lot more pertinent to an unfinished man in the real world.

Bitch Slap – Exploitation Film at its Most Confusing

When we saw the trailer for this…. masterpiece, we wondered, “how the hell did we miss this movie?” Bitch Slap came out in 2009, was shown on only 3 screens, and faded relatively quickly into obscurity; this may have something to do with why it never made our radar. We stumbled across this bizarre-yet-sexy grindhouse style flick when looking for ~~scantily clad women online~~ important bacon documents online. Usually exploitation movies are set in glorious bygone decades, but this movie is very much up to date, and manages to work a number of modern locales and references (please note that this still doesn’t improve nor clarify the movie in any way.) I wouldn’t go so far as to say it’s a good movie, but it’s hilariously great-bad in its own right. The plot vaguely rotates around diamonds in the desert and Kevin Sorbo and sex nuns and the circus and razor yo-yos and a lot of random sword fights and the world ending. If nothing else, put it on mute and enjoy the comically hot protagonists gratuitously digging holes, scissoring, splashing in the water, feeling each other up, and running through explosions in various states of undress. Video clips and image gallery after the jump.

She’s Disappointed – Is it Fixable?

“I’m not mad… I’m just disappointed.” No guy wants to hear these words, and rightly so; disappointment is actually more likely to kill a relationship than passionate anger. All women may be different, but there are certain things we’re all on the same page about. If she’s acting like you’ve dropped the ball, and you’re left scratching your head as to why, check our cheat sheet- we’ll help you fix it, and avoid future drama that can lead to the death of your relationship.

You have bad judgement

So maybe you thought shaving off a friend’s eyebrow when he passed out was a great idea- but now she’s raising hers at you, and you realize that the room temperature’s dropped to below zero. Whether or not your girl has the same sense of humor as you, there are a lot of decisions that you think are funny or cool that are going to have her thinking twice about you.

Life With A Bang – Firearm Inspired Design

Most guys grow up loving everything firearm related, but if you aren’t a range nut, it’s hard to work that into everyday life without looking like a total crazy. Guns have a certain aesthetic- sleek, sexy, and dangerous, they’ve given inspiration to a number of designers and artists. So for today, I’ve held off the kitschy-yet-fun crap like the Revolver Hair Drier in lieu of some of the coolest pieces of gun couture around.

Shoot from your hip with this gorgeous stainless steel hip flask from Suck UK. Every man should have a flask, and there’s no reason it can’t look great and come ready to inspire all sorts of terrible puns that you’ll begin to think are amazing as you drink more.

Bernhoft – Cmon Talk : How Much Noise Can One Man Make?

Check out this great video for Cmon Talk by Bernhoft; shot in one continuous take with three cameras, the music you hear is all being played “live” and can produced anywhere by just Jarle Bernhoft himself.

Using only a set of mics and effect pedals to create looped vocals, layering them with an eight string acoustic guitar, Bernhoft builds a sexy R and B song that’s better than most of what you hear on the

Legendary Iron: Build Your Own Army of Transformers and Terminators

There’s just something about a giant death dealing robot that gets a man feeling all warm and fuzzy inside. Even if you’re not big into cars, you can appreciate that old auto parts can create some bad-ass killer sculptures. Meet Legendary Iron, a user on Zcool.com, who spends most of his days welding scrap iron into giant movie sculptures that look like they’re going to rip you to shreds and then stomp on what’s left of your corpse. Some of his pieces (like the Megatron Tank) have taken up to 2 years to complete, and the detail on others is enough to make you wonder if he doesn’t have some magical elves helping him finish these insane designs. Check out our gallery after the jump, collected from his personal profile of works over the last few years.
