I came across these in my daily search for how Star Wars is taking over mass culture.

A MEME Is Born

Myself, Wendy from SugarPusher and Brian from Happybox created a side project to basically make us laugh. It was based on a drunken party game where we would modify movie and song titles to integrate the late actor Corey Haim. It was dubbed The HaimGame. And over the last few weeks we created a Tumblr for it. Needless to say, the Internet does what the Internet does and it was just picked up by io9 and Buzzfeed.

Feel free to contribute and play along. Next up, a Kinect Hack?

This If Real Life Were Manga contest over at Worth1000 about what if real life looked like Manga is just super freaky. This is an alternate reality that I am glad we are not living through and makes me wonder what those Japanese illustrators think life actually looks like through their eyes.
