Lois Is Just Too Slow for Superman
"Microwaves Are Just Too Slow" is a new T-shirt over at Threadless this week. Capturing the futility of technology in the face of superheroics, Superman doesn't have time to waste while Lois messes around with the microwave. What the picture does not show, however, is the less charming, more grotesque result of the morning that Lois "took too long" shaving her legs. Needless to say, she's a pants-wearer now and Superman will be heating dinner for one for many years to come. [Threadless]

Spiderweb Solar-Wind Sail Proves Jor-El Was Right
Laugh all you want at the sea-urchiny ship Jor-El used to send Kal-El to earth, but it looks a lot like the new kind of solar-sail array developed by the Finnish Meteorological Institute in Helsinki. Instead of the standard solar panels, the Finnish scientists propose long thin strands, just microns in diameter, that stretch out from the spaceship, and use a positive charge to repel heavy positive ions in the solar wind that move at hundreds of kilometers per second.

Jedi Ginsu Knife Brings Out the Chef/Jedi in You
Have you had enough of lightsabers? Wasn't the breakdown of how we roll on Thanksgiving enough to keep you entertained? Wasn't the synopsis of why Superman would be futile to a lightsaber attack enough to fill your Jedi/lightsaber/superhero demand for the week? Are those two questions the stupidest you have ever been asked? Should I stop with all the damn questions, and let you just watch the Ginsu Jedi lightsaber commercial? Yeah, I'll just do that.

Can a Lightsaber Cut Through Superman?
Can a gadget defeat a superhero? Here's a question our sister site io9 posed: can a lightsaber cut through Superman? We put both our nerdy gadget knowledge and our nerdy superhero knowledge to the test and came up with reasons why it could and reasons why it couldn't. More »

This is How Superman Dials a Phone
Screw touchscreens. When Superman makes a call, he wants to rearrange crystals and have his father come out in non-corporeal form and tell him that he's doing everything wrong, and if he doesn't hurry and finish dialing, all mankind is doomed. More »

Who Needs Superman? Slingatron Slingshots Stuff Into Space
This Slingatron is the greatest thing we can think of to free up Superman's time for other things, like courting Lois or getting drunk and being a dick. Instead of spending $10,000 per pound to send stuff into space with traditional rockets, this Slingatron design is like a centrifuge that spins things around until they reach escape velocity before sending them flying into space.

I hope you're on Santa's Good List this year since you wouldn't want to miss out on some of the toys that Mattel's got lined up for the Holidays.

Read on for a small preview of what your kids (or you, weirdo) might be playing with. More »
