YouTube Geek Week: Suburban White Dudes Drop An Epic ‘Animal Crossing’ Rap

by Derek Kraneveldt

Briefly: We’re now hours into YouTube Geek Week’s Gaming Thursday, and I’ve just watched another absolutely hilarious video that’s simply too good not to share.

I’m not an Animal Crossing player myself, but I do know what it’s all about. Plus, the fact that I haven’t seen my 3DS since New Leaf launched in June means that I do have people close to me who are under its astonishing spell.

“Friends With Animals” features two suburban dads who are a little too obsessed with the game. It’s a rap video like no other, and one that had my New Leaf addicted girlfriend in stitches throughout. Take a look at the video below, and head here to see everything else that Gaming Thursday has to offer!

by Derek Kraneveldt

Briefly: This is just too cool. As a huge fan of Pixar’s Wall-E (though who isn’t), I would kill to see this in real life.

Years in the making (and still in progress), Michael McMaster and his local builders club have crafted the most incredible real-life Wall-E that I’ve ever seen.

Tested visited McMaster as part of YouTube’s Geek Week, where the genius builder showed off his incredible, incredibly functional replica. Pixar/Wall-E fan? You need to see this:

Be sure to let us know what you think of this amazing project, and head to McMaster’s website for more Wall-E info, and to take a look at his other builds!
