Rick And Morty Tiki Mugs: Drinking in the Multiverse

Posted on by

Rick and Morty fans are going to love drinking their fancy cocktails out of these 15-ounce tiki mugs. Ten characters from the hit show are available like Rick, Morty, Scary Terry, Bird Person, Evil Morty, Pickle Rick, Mr, Poopy Butthole, and more.

I would never admit to drinking from a poopy butthole though and neither should you. Maybe I’ll just keep that one locked in the cupboard. I just don’t want my lips on a poopy butthole. Does it ever truly get clean, even in the dishwasher? I guess you could bleach it, but that’s a lot of work. I could stick stuff in it, like my pens and pencils, but that just seems weird. Yeah, that one is a no go, but I like the rest.

These mugs are dishwasher and microwave safe and cost $18 a piece from Entertainment Earth. So if you get the whole set it will cost you a crazy $180. Too bad we can’t use a portal gun to travel to the nearest dimension and get them cheaper. It isn’t easy being a fan sometimes. You gotta pay up so you can drink up in style.

Star Trek TOS Geeki Tikis: Beam Me Up a Drink, Scotty!

Posted on by

If you’re like me, and love both Star Trek and tiki drinks, today is your lucky day. That’s because we can now buy this awesome set of Geeki Tiki tumblers inspired by The Original Series.

The set of six officially-licensed 14oz. ceramic tikis features likenesses of Captain Kirk, Dr. McCoy, a Gorn, a Klingon, Mr. Spock, and a Mugato. I like to imagine that the crew just beamed down to a planet where the locals sit on the beach and sip Mai Tais and Daiquiris all day. While Spock might refuse their hospitality, Kirk would get so drunk. I know it.

You can grab the complete set on Amazon for $119.99, but you can also pick them up individually if you want to pick and choose.

Blue Microphones Tiki USB microphone review: a thumbdrive-sized mic for mobile recording

Posted on by

Blue Microphones Tiki compact USB microphone a thumbdrivesized unit for mobile recording sessions

More Info

In recent years, mobile and compact recording gear has, like so many other gadget types, become smaller and smaller in stature. We've seen add-ons for smartphones and tablets that aren't much larger than a quarter, along with mobile mics that boast USB compatibility. The Blue Microphones Tiki continues the trend, offering the same premium aesthetics we've come to expect from the company, along with top-notch audio quality. The Tiki is said to perform at its best with Skype-style video chats and voice recording, thanks in part to an intelligent mute and noise isolation features.

Let's be honest, though. Purchasing a USB microphone for the sole purpose of video chatting will be a tough sell for most folks. People like podcasters will expect a bit more functionality from a peripheral like this. Luckily, the unit boasts a "Natural Recording Mode" that promises instrument-tracking capabilities as well. But does the Tiki handle online banter, voice recording and guitar sounds well enough to warrant a $60 purchase? And exactly how smart is the intelligent mute? Read on to see what we discovered when we gave this flash drive-sized microphone the full-on review treatment.
