Inigo Montoya
It’s a classic tale really: Father killed by an evil villain and his son vowing vengeance spends years hunting for his murderer. Luke Skywalker had a similar situation. Boba Fett. Bruce Wayne. I’d even guess there was a Steven Seagal movie somewhere about it (though it is just as likely […]
Something Strange, In Your Beverage
When there’s something strange in your neighborhood, who ya gonna call? Starbucks! Wait a minute. What? That’s right folks, if you see a giant 50 foot tall marshmallow man wandering down the street, you could call Ghostbusters and risk them crossing the streams, damaging the city or covering the CBD […]
Picnic
Aliens have received a bad rap in popular culture, what with the stories of anal probing. As Paul said in the movie of the same name: “What are we doing? Harvesting farts?” No, they’re simply stopping by Earth to get a quick feed. Because where else in the universe can […]
Depp Perception
You’ve gotta love Johnny Depp. He picks interesting roles and can play an assortment of odd characters from Edward Scissorhands in the movie of the same name to Raoul Duke in Fear and Loathing to Captain Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise. He’s a versatile actor…and he is […]
Arrr
Finally a Facebook Like button for pirates… If you’re bored with the standard Facebook Like button and you’re a fan of pirates – or if you have a hook for a hand – here is a design you are sure to arrr. Gone is the the thumbs-up, replaced instead with […]
Hunger Weapons
Nobody wants to see children suffering a slow and painful death…it’s just not good television. If you’re one for spectacle and fanfare when watching kids kill each other in a bloody battle to the death this Hunger Games, then you know all-too-well that the weapon of choice is crucial. This […]
RiverDancer
River Tam always liked to dance, but you won’t find this River-dancer doing an Irish jig. No, her time at the Academy transformed her into a semi-lucid psychic killing machine. So what do you get when you cross the skills of a dancer with skills of an assassin? A beautifully […]
Dear Karma
I’m sure you’ve heard of karma. Basically its the concept whereby your actions and deeds have a causal relationship on the happiness of your life. Many Hindus and Buddhists believe in karma. Earl Hickey found karma and wrote a list of people he wronged. Well you know what karma? I […]
Where the Wild Adventures Are
Every young boy loves an adventure, whether it is an imaginary forest in the land of the Wild Things or trekking through the post-apocalyptic Land of Ooo. Wherever your adventures take you, just remember kids: Beware of arrows to the knee! Classic childrens book Where the Wild Things Are meets […]
I Want to Believe
Lynn Lamour beat me to the punch with this one…this is one design I had been thinking of for a while. Because we all want to believe that Doctor Who exists. X-Files meets Doctor Who in this parody of Mulder’s famous I Want to Believe poster.
The Dragon Slayer
The skies are rife with their wretched winged bodies, hurtling through the air with an unwavering malice. They prey upon our livestock, our villages, and our very minds. They are a menace that must be stopped, and there is only one man who can mount such a grave challenge. He […]

Fringe the Animated Series
The animated series with endless impossibilities. Because there has to be a cartoon that describes to kids the science behind the impossibilities of other cartoons… How else will I learn why Worcestershire sauce is a catalyst for a zombie apocalypse when used as embalming fluid?
How do I block you in real life?
I’m afraid the social networking phenomenon is here to stay. That’s fine but I’m more of what you’d describe as an anti-social networker. Someone shared something in some game – blocked (the someone and the app). Friend’s status updates are pointless, grammatically incorrect blips that make me stupider for having read […]
Born To Kill
Because sometimes wearing a Stormtrooper uniform and firing laser-guns at your enemy just doesn’t get the message across. Or maybe its just something to wear on your days off. Star Wars meets Full Metal Jacket done in the style of the British Wartime Keep Calm propaganda posters.
Jetset Citation
Its not often that you can actually use the Experimental Jetset design style for a direct quote, but meow Midgerock has done it beautifully with this quote from Super Troopers. Available meow. Experimental Jetset style meets Super Troopers.
Starlight
It may be called the Death Star, but that doesn’t mean this star can’t shine brightly like a jewel in the night sky. After all, I’ve seen Stardust. That’s what stars do – they shine. Maybe its a parallax from a nearby sun, or the beautiful after-glow from blowing up […]
Galactic Battle Crest
If a once enslaved cyborg race engineer a successful coup over their creators and enemies by launching a surprise nuclear attack which renders their planets uninhabitable and forces the last remnants of the human species to totter across space searching for a mythical refuge, well, that’s something that should be immortalized on […]
I’ve Seen Things
When it comes to artificially engineered beings with super-human strength meeting their untimely end in the movies, there are two moments for me that come to mind. Arnie in Terminator 2 with the molten lead and the thumb, and the death of Replicant Roy Batty in Blade Runner. As he says to Deckard in his final soliloquy before his […]
HTML Ninja Code
Ah…finally a tee for all the code monkeys out there. While a more appropriate title would have been CSS Ninja Code, this design written in the style of CSS describes a ninja pretty accurately – they’re black and they’re hidden. So next time you’re designing a site for I client, […]
Fire Department 451
Remember the firemen are rarely necessary. The public stopped reading of its own accord. Inspired by Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451. If you don’t understand, all I can say is go and read the book. Then read another book.
Moss Quotes

Reminder: Buy More Beer
You had a great night last night. Sure, you don’t really remember it, but it was fun. But there was something you had to remember. Something important. Something fundamental. Something that if you forgot it your weekend would be ruined. But with this monster hangover you can’t quite recall… The […]
Have You Seen Wall-y?
When your name is Wall-E, you don’t have a lot of namesakes to emulate. And its hard to emulate your namesake when they are most famous for seeking anonymity by blending into large crowds – by hiding in plain sight as it were – especially when there are no people left on Earth. […]
