Pretty much anything Neil does is cool.

Web Wednesday: Cardboard Love

As the name gives away, Cardboard Love shares quick quips of love and joy on strips of cardboard.

The archives don't divide between the two, but you can follow both of their tumblr accounts:
His and Hers
Both provide equal amounts of nerd and quirk.

Merch Monday: Irregular Choice

Launched in 1999 by creator and designer Dan Sullivan, Irregular Choice is a fun company that is looking to help you make a statement.
Always fresh and innovative, Dan's collections of shoes and accessories are always one of a kind. With interesting shapes and use of materials, Irregular Choice products offer equal parts Bang to the Buck you'll be spending on them.
And that Buck is worth quite a lot. Remember: what you're paying for is in fact a designer product.




Just think of how many ways one of these lovelies can spruce up the most basic of wardrobes.

Slacker Friday: James McAdam Pillow!



This pillow designed by James McAdam makes for a cute sleep face.
Or, as cute as you can possibly get with an imprint in your face.
Better than the seam of your jacket or a zipper, anyway.

Made out of 100% cotton, the text
"Good Morning Sweetheart"
is transferred by clever embroidery.

Web Wednesday: Seanbaby's Super Friends Page

When last I talked about comics in my post on Templar, Arizona I mentioned that while I liked comics I wasn't exactly hip to the Marvel and DC classics. So don't let this post fool you; I still don't know anything about them.
But I do love reading hilarious reviews.

Seanbaby's Super Friends Page is just one section of Seanbaby's hilarious domain, but it's the one I visit the most often. Taking time to explore each member of the Super Friends and the Legion of Doom, Seanbaby reviews each character and rates their worth based on their powers, skill, and use.
Hint: No one gets a good rating.
With biting sarcasm and the help of video clips and screenshot comics each character is bashed with witty commentary.

My personal favorite? The non-stop bash party for my hero, The Green Lantern.

Merch Monday: Xenotees

Another Etsy favorite of mine, Xenotees screen prints adorable and unique designs onto cotton, sweatshop-free products.
Running directly out of the artist's studio in Philadelphia, all items are guaranteed to be free of smoke or pet dander.



This basic design is what first drew me into the store. Swirling inwards, the text is of the various collective names of animals. Over a hundred of them in fact!
This list includes quirky gems like a "tower of giraffes" and a "business of ferrets" as well as some omimnous sounding ones like an "unkindness of ravens" and a "sleuth of bears".
To top it all off, a portion of the sales are donated to animal rescues and charities.

Check out more cool goodies at the Xenotees shop.
