Google in Reverse: New Site Provides Google Results Starting From the Least Relevant Results


When I do a vanity Google search for my name, or Gearfuse, or whatever, it’s very rare that I can make it to the last page of results, the end of the internet, if you will. Inframutt, a new beta project, takes users into the very bowels of the interwebz, starting the search results with the least relevant results rather than the customary search which provides you with the ultimate in relevance.

You really want to know who someone is? Check out the nooks and crannies, starting from the rear, with Inframutt. This is still a beta service, so it’s operation is a little clunky, but it’s neat nevertheless.

It Had To Be Done: The Avatar Na’vi Fleshlight


Now that you’ve brushed up on your Na’vi grammar skills, it’s time to try out your new moves on all of those fine Na’vi ladies. In all likelihood, success isn’t going to come overnight. The probability of scoring on your first few tries are astronomically low. But there is hope! Until you hone your skills, there’s always the Na’vi Fleshlight to keep you company.

Go where no manhood has gone before past the strangely alluring double clitoris of the Alien vagina. This mesmerizing pearlescent blue Alien begs to beam you up for a close encounter of the preferred kind. The exclusive Alien texture combines the feel of three of our most popular textures to create one out-of-this-world experience. Tantalizing sinews swirl together mimicking our famous Vortex canal before breaking through to a Lotus node that finally gives way to our most intense texture, the STU.

Oh yeaaaaah, Daddy loves him some hot Vortex canal. I swear, some people have the weirdest fetishes. But I guess that’s why they call it a fetish, huh? An Alien Fleshlight will set you back $75, but you can also indulge in the “Ultimate Alien Fantasy” which ships with one Alien Fleshlight, the new “This Ain’t Avatar” porn parody and two pairs of 3D glasses for $90. Check out the NSFW pics after the jump, if you dare.

LED Shoelaces Let Out Your Inner Raver


I’ve never gone clubbing in my entire life. I find joy in the simple things in life – picking dry skin flakes from my beard, trolling weight loss forums, making sure my belly button is impeccably clean – you know, the usual hubbub. But I can imagine for the people who are into that “scene,” these glowing fiber-optic LED Shoelaces would be a cool way to add a unique touch to your raver fashion.

Each pair of laces is only $9.95. They even have a flash setting for extra psychedelic-ness. Available in red, orange, green and blue. But make sure you get them soon, we might not need laces forever.

LEGO Wedding Ring


Marriage. All in all it’s just another LEGO brick in the wall. Not as painful or permanent as tattoos, but just as painful to remove from your life, marriage is the ultimate commitment, when taken seriously. The LEGO Wedding Ring is the most effective way to prove your devotion. In other words, how devoted do you have to be to fall victim to your significant other’s obsession.

Flickr user ColorMeKate shares her gorgeous photos from her friend Tyler’s wedding. Sure, it can be attached to minifigs and other LEGO pieces, but will it hold a bottle of Jack to catch his tears when his bride leaves him for Nathan Sawaya?

Canceling Gamefly Accounts Can Be Damn Near Impossible


John signed up for Gamefly with innocent intentions. He just wanted to allow his son to enjoy a variety of video games that he wouldn’t have been able to afford without a all-you-can-eat mail service and possibly get a few free ecstasy pills out of the deal. But once the time came along to cancel his Gamefly account, that’s when the trouble began.

I have been trying for months to cancel my son’s subscription to Gamefly.I have emailed, written letters, returned the videos and they still keep sending us videos and debiting our account every month.

For whatever the reason, the “cancel account” function on their site doesn’t work because we have a “partial account.”

No one ever answers their customer service line. No one ever responds to their email line, except an automated response.

Despite the apparent inability to cancel an account, another Gamefly customer comments that despite the lack of concern as far as customer service goes, the company responds uncannily fast when they feel they are owed money. “That’s strange.” comments Consumerist reader dwtomek, “They were extremely quick to send me to collections over a game that apparently got lost in the mail.” Not cool, Gamefly. Not cool at all.
