Hello all welcome to another episode of whats awesome here at Daddy’s Corner (Where I stake my claim on the blogosphere and tell you what Daddy thinks). Tonight we are going really old school, a bit apple-y and then some fighting robots.
For those of you Lovecraft fans in training we have the Cthulhu plush . He’s little, he’s soft, and he is dreaming at the bottom of the sea. Little Man likes to sleep with him, and likes how “Cthulhu keeps away the monsters”. The little guy is about 6 inches tall and has a 6 inch wing span, just big enough to sleep on your pillow next to you and your companion cube. A classic toy of the elder gods.
“From “The Call of Cthulhu,” by H.P. Lovecraft, we learn of a gigantic creature. It has existed for longer than memory, and has traveled between the stars. It can never die, and its very existence puts all that we know or think we know into question. It is truly alien, viewing humans and our society the same way we would view tiny insects. Cthulhu is a mass of tentacles and claws and feelers and scales. It is truly a vision of a nightmare, which, of course, means it would make a perfect addition to your home or office!”
With the recent quitting of Steve Jobs, this next shirt is quite current. iQuit wear it not only to commemorate Mr. Jobs momentous decision or just let everyone know you just don’t care about his newest Apple product. An example, the new iPhone 3S was announced, guess who isn’t getting it- I’m not! iQuit.
“iQuit in white on a black, 100% cotton t-shirt. Sure, it’s timely, but it’s also great to wear to those stupid corporate things where they call everybody in for a pep rally and then lay folks off. Head HR off at the pass.”
Robot dinosaurs, does it get any more awesome then a robot dinosaur? Of course it does, by controlling one of them, then having it fight another one. But lets say you are more of a pacifist, set your robo-dinosaur to room defend to keep your personal place safe from other dinosaurs or maybe just that annoying room mate or significant other. Get that extra hour of sleep thanks to your little plastic friend.
“Before the robot asteroid hit, robot dinosaurs roamed the planet. They ate robot plants and laid um . . . robot eggs. They fought each other with loud screams of robot wrath and shot invisible beams out of their eyes. Oh, and they didn’t have legs as we know it; they had legs bent into wheels. And did we mention they were remote control? Well, they are, and we’re selling them to you: R/C Battling Robot Dinosaur!”
Cthulhu is cool
it is unfortunate about Mr. Jobs though.
When I read this post in my email this morning I thought, what crappy timing for this post ;D
amy- right? that was weird. the words “steve jobs” have never been written on this site before- and that is quite ironic indeed.
I think that wearing the iQUIT t-shirt right now might be a little too ironic for good taste. Though it is quite ironic that you posted this the day he passed away.
Those robot dinosaurs look awesome!
My son in law was upset it wasn’t a new iPhone 4, and just the 4S. I’m sure a 5 will come out next year. But what Steve Jobs has done with everything he’s touched is absolutely amazing.
the shirt is great sending to my son to check out
We love our robo-dino! I still swear I am getting myself one to battle the kids with lol
I LOVE that marine plush! Gotta have one – ‘course I’m a water baby so is predictable.
However, my son would die for the robo-dino! Too cool!
Hilarious. I think everyone needs one of those dinosaurs. I wish I had one!
Oh I want a cuddly Cthulhu!!
Think Geek hasthe best descriptions of their items lol
