Look up Marlon. Say CHEESE!

"The Happiness Hat is a wearable conditioning device that detects if you're smiling and provides pain feedback if you're not. Frowning creates intense pain but a full smile leaves you pain free! Through repeated use of this conditioning device you can train your brain to smile all the time."

This is one of the many subtle ways that I plan to stunt in the future.

The 14 Karat Goldplated Staples by Studio OOOMS.
Intended primarily as a form of jewelry, these luxury pieces can be applied to clothing (or just about anything) with the help of your average stapler.

Note to Master P: Just because you use gold-plated staples does not make your proposals to television companies any less deplorable.

Break to Build

Jumpman ads get me hype like none other! Good to see Flash threw away them Converses and started J-walking.

Man-Machines

For my fellow nerds out there. This reminds me of the days when I used to really enjoy science classes.

Kels is Back!

He's yodeling on the hook. For any other artist, that's horrible news. For Rob that means it's prolly a hit.

U R The Prototype

Be clear, this post is just as much about that picture as it is the song. Miss Keys is definitely starting power forward on my wifey all-star team. Yes, I have a wifey all-star team... a squad of prototypes that I've compiled in my head and provided for you after the jump. Tell me if you think I left anyone out.

Alicia Keys - Sleeping With A Broken Heart

Center: Beyoncé Knowles

You can't NOT make Beyoncé the center (just ask Kelly, Michelle, LeToya, LaTavia, & that other girl). But jokes aside, she has it all. Plus it's always fun to have a chick that everybody hates on.

Power Forward: Alicia Keys

Do you see that base? She was made for the post.

Small Forward: Halle Berry

This was a tough pick. Almost went with Angelina Jolie here because she's more aggressive, but Halle's resumé (CatWoman aside) is pretty thorough. Plus Angelina's always adopting babies. That can be a liability.

Shooting Guard: Jada Pinkett-Smith

Jada could play almost any position, but at the end of the day she's a scorer. Plus she was BFF's with 2Pac... she gets G status off that alone.

Point Guard: Nia Long

Did you not see Boyz N Da Hood... Fresh Prince... Friday? This is the reliable PG I want running my team. Complex beat me to the punch with this one.

Sixth Man: Michelle Obama

Michelle's the vet that's taken a reduced roll but is, by far, still the most respected on the team. And since the election, she's surpassed all of the starters in Hip-Hop mentions ("Halle Berry, She's Fine" only counts as one). I swear this woman must have superpowers... or be from Chicago.

The People

This is kinda amazing. I love art that uses the city as a protagonist or tries to capture the essence of a city. Never really messed with San Fran like that, but after watching this it makes me think they might have some character out there after all... who knew?

All you need to hear is the first 30 sec. and you'll see why Sean is a BEAST!

Can't wait for this album. Remember that the F.F. doesn't stand for Fendi.

Hmm... Interesting: Starring The InPulse Blackberry Smartwatch

Hide your addiction with the InPulse Blackberry Smartwatch ($150). It connects wirelessly via Bluetooth to your Blackberry, letting you discreetly check emails, texts, and Twitter updates without busting out the phone. The InPulse sports a 1.3-inch full color OLED display, a built-in vibrating motor, and a rechargeable lithium-ion polymer battery.

Dunno how I feel about this one yet... but great idea though. Especially for those dates or meetings when it's not appropriate to pull out the phone. Looking forward to seeing how much iller Apple's version of this will be. Speaking of which, I wouldn't be mad if Apple decided to launch a campaign to defecate on Blackberry the way that they do on PC.

One of the best videos I've seen all year. Chris got his Michaelangelo on, Wayne rocking that Chi-Town red, and Rosa Acosta looking right (DID YOU SEE HER TERRY RICHARDSON x SUPREME PHOTOSHOOT!!!!). Bravo.
