Suited up Spock, Retail Success and Failure, & Sweater Weather

October 7, 2016 By Tim Johnstone | Heads up: Buying via our links may result in us getting a commission. Here's why.

TAILORED TREKWEAR:

BLUE LIGHT NOT SO SPECIAL? I am kind of surprised that these guys are still around. Not even kidding. As a brand, it seems so 1970’s.

ON THE OTHER HAND: Things seems to be going well for Nordstrom north of the border. 

PRIME IMPROVEMENT: Seems like the perfect time of year to sit down with a good book. Er, something like that.

SIGH: That horrible moment you realize that these T-Rexes are better wave riders than you are. Even with those stubby arms and everything.

I HAVE SEEN THINGS YOU PEOPLE WOULDN’T BELIEVE…

Roy Batty. Replicant. Speaking of which…#bladerunner

WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT…this is the the essence of responsible green living. 

RETIREMENT STRATEGY: Who needs the lottery when you can have an adventure? You know you want to do it.

UM…no. Ok maybe. As a white elephant gift…adds to the Alexa shopping list. Done and done.

ONCE UPON A TIME:

How To Steal a Million | The Weekend Dossier on Dappered(thank you)

Audrey Hepburn and Peter O’Toole in Paris, during the filming of How to Steal a Million, in 1965.

TECH TIME: Eighteen months in and I’m still happy with my Apple watch. This is an interesting take on one of it’s updated features.

FATHERLY ADVICE: I’m a fan of Story Corps. They do good work. This is a good example and I’m not going to pretend that it didn’t find its mark.

ART: It’s not always for hanging on your wall or exhibiting in a gallery. Sometimes it serves a different purpose. This is one of those purposes. Brilliant.

STRANGER THINGS KEEPS DELIVERING THE GOODS:

COULRO-PALOOZA: America, we have a clown problem. Let’s start in Pennsylvania shall we? Then we will big-shoe it over to Utah, which offers up some good advice. And then there’s this. And finally, you’ve seen this right? Because you should. Now, I’m not sure what you’ll think about the fact that this film came out in July and tanked and what are the chances this is all just a marketing stunt.

IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR STYX…there are apparently eleven ways to get there.

DAMN MOTHER NATURE! You never disappoint.  Make sure you close the window and scroll down for the video.

THEN THERE’S THIS: Damn you Mother Nature. I may never walk outside in my backyard ever again.

COME AT ME BRO!

Come at me Bro from http://explosionsoflife.tumblr.com | The Weekend Dossier on Dappered(thank you)

This Two-Spot octopus is not messing around. And the fact that is kind of looks like a Xenomorph is just a sort of creepy bonus. Because, there have been some interesting rumors about octopuses and such. Then there’s this.

FIRING ON ALL SYLLABLES: According to some of us, there are only 2 of them in caramel. Also, don’t get me started on crayon.

YOU THINK YOU’RE TOUGH? You ain’t this tough. No offense.

ODOR-FREE AUTOMOBILES? Yes, and you can thank China. And I mean that. That smell that people tend to like is kind of nasty.

SWEATER WEATHER:

ANGER MANAGEMENT: This is not how you do it. Also, there can be true Hulk smash while wearing spandex.

‘MURICA! It’s Electric. Yes really.

THEN THERE’S GIFS: The near miss. The direct hit. And the awkward glitch.

FORGET BURNING MAN: This is the next hip festival that will soon be ruined because everyone is finding out about it.

INCOMING! eric-all-star-small

Thanks Eric! Then there’s this. But only click if you are into horror shorts. And I’m not talking about tighty-whiteys. I’m talking bloody, gory, jump-worthy scary as shit short films. And if you are going to watch it, don’t watch it where you probably shouldn’t.
