READER SUBMISSION: Nyan Cat Costume

I am not the hippest kid at the LOLCat convention by any stretch, so it is fair to say there are “internet memes” I miss completely, and plenty I just do not understand. Nyan Cat is some odd mix of both. I stumbled on Nyan Cat a few days ago, only to discover that Nyan Cat was in the process of actually taking over the world, using a rainbow shooting out of it’s bum, and wearing what appears to be a pop tart.

The upside to Nyan Cat, I suppose, is that it is kind of cute. Craftasaurus Rex (but seriously, how cool is that name?) sent me this picture of her cat, in the Nyan Cat Costume she made for her. Apparently, this is only a prototype, I look forward to seeing the 2.0!

*Warning to viewer: nothing changes. It’s the same for the whole 3+ minutes.

Little Mermaid Shark Attack Costume

I know this isn’t actually geeky (although I’m categorizing it as sciences, there), but it cracked me up so I’m posting it anyway. Craftster user Zanarchy combined a shark costume with some mermaid pieces to make Ariel, The Little Mermaid attacked by a shark. Love it!

Dr. Who Costumes

Kelly Szpunar at HunkyDory comes up with the best stuff. When this originally landed in my inbox I was thrilled,then disappointed as Halloween was over and geek crafts had been pretty well costumed…but after some discussion, it was decided that these amazing Doctor Who Costumes were too cool to hang onto until next year. The Doctor is so well done! And the take on the Dalek is too cool, I love that it is an “outfit” made to look Dalek-y and not a full Dalek suit made of carboard and spray painted tennis balls! And the super Doctor Who geek in me is thrilled that someone went as a TARDIS, since the TARDIS is supposed to be a living entity, after all.
