10 Scary Abandoned Buildings
Posted by The Gimcracker in Gimcrackery on 05. May, 2008 | Comments
I grew up riding a bus to school that passed a mental hospital called Central State on the west side of Indianapolis. It was abandoned in the mid 90s, and has been around for over 100 years. People still tell stories of hauntings at the hospital, and it became especially frightening after it was abandoned. [...]

It’s Friday. Let’s step out of the void/cephalopod/abyss kick we’ve been on and feast our eyes upon this absolutely spectacular piece of technology. In my opinion, this is the culmination of the entire human race. When God created us He only did it for two reasons: 1) so we would worship Him, and 2) so [...]
I’m Afraid Of Cephalopods
Posted by The Gimcracker in Gimcrackery, Science on 25. Apr, 2008 | Comments
Ever since I can remember I’ve had a real fear of the following things (from least to greatest):
1. Voids
2. Cephalopods
While you’re glaring at me for using a big word that I obviously found on Wikipedia, let me touch on #1.
Voids frighten me. Remember ‘The Nothing’ from The Neverending Story? That was my first encounter [...]
How To Screw Capital One

You know those business reply mail envelopes that clog up your mailbox from stupid junk mailers like Capital One – the ones that say “No Postage Necessary If Mailed In The US”? We both know that postage is, in fact, necessary to mail stuff. So, who is paying for this? It’s not you, me, or [...]
‘Nuther Leet

I’m convinced this number pops up way more often in my life than any other number. I’m viewer number ‘leet’ on this YouTube vid:
Now if only I was worth a crap in WoW PVP. Then I’d really be leet.
Tommy Lee Jones’ Age
Posted by The Gimcracker in Gimcrackery on 10. Apr, 2008 | Comments
I was watching Under Seige last night and realized Tommy Lee Jones has never been young. This movie came out in 1992 and he is exactly as old as he is now. His voice and appearance are exactly the same.
He is omni-age.
That’s what my friend and I used to call a lady in our [...]
Blue Frost

I have created LIFE! In the form of a web template. It’s called Blue Frost, which I know sounds a lot like Blue Steel from Zoolander, but it’s just as killer.
So far the template exists in two iterations: a plain vanilla HTML version that you can use as a theme for any old website, [...]

Today my wife and I went to Subway for lunch. The total cost of our meal was $13.37. If I had an iPhone like all you pie-in-the-sky gizmo-geeks out there, I could’ve taken a picture to prove it. You’ll just have to take my word for it.

My brother brought this to my attention. He was dutifully earning rice for starving people in Africa at a website pointed out by Jonathan that lets you increase your vocabularical skills by guessing synonyms to increasingly harder words.
He came across a strangely familiar word with an even more strangely familiar word as a possible [...]
Gimcrack Spotted!
Posted by The Gimcracker in Blogging, Gimcrackery on 06. Feb, 2008 | Comments
We are really exploding here at GimMisc Industries. Not only has our LOLheads™ division been diversifying with very rare images of Coach Belichick (I gave them all raises to $3.25 an hour – they still have to provide their own equipment, though), but our brand new marketing & advertising department has launched!
So far, GimMisc has [...]
