Apple debuting iWatch on September 9th?

August 27, 2014 by CuteMonster Staff

The Apple rumor mill has reached a fever pitch about the latest wearable gadget unofficially dubbed the “iWatch”. Recode’s sources reports Apple will debut the device on September 9th — the same day we might see at least one new iPhone. There’s no proof at this point, hence the the rumor designation, but Recode’s prediction track record history has been solid. Add in the rumor that the new iPhone and “iWatch” work in unison with one another and the prediction becomes more realistic. There are no technical details at this juncture other than the device most likely having fitness and home automation support. We’ll just have to wait for those details when they’re actually announced.

Weird Al’s “Word Crimes” is not only a fun parody of Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines”, but it’s also ridiculously innovative and dare we say, educational.

June 7, 2014 by CuteMonster Staff

Father’s Day offers the opportunity to reflect on what’s truly important in the life of a Dad. Being a Dad may well be one of the most challenging yet rewarding jobs a man will ever undertake in his lifetime. Yet parenthood often means putting the welfare of one’s family first. As noble a premise as that may be, the result often translates into men letting their own health fall by the wayside. We here at CuteMonster.com are on a mission to reverse that trend. That’s why we’ve partnered with a phenomenal company like Razor, creator of a wide range of scooters and action oriented rides, to provide a combo giveaway of both the exciting new RIFT scooter and the popular Razor A5 Lux scooter. Two great rides built for years of outdoor fun.

Today’s winner of the Internet: The HUVr Hoverboard

March 4, 2014 by CuteMonster Staff

Every day the internet floods the world with an overwhelming amount of information. Although some of this knowledge can be useful much of it can simply be described as worthless noise. Yet, once in awhile a gem rises to the surface. Given the unbridled nature of the world wide web (think wild, wild west), the hidden treasure can really be just about anything. In our humble opinion, today’s winner of the internet is a video promoting the HUVr Hoverboard. Yes, that’s right, a “real” overboard much like the one Michael J. Fox used in the 1985 blockbuster Back to the Future. We’re crossing our fingers that it’s true.
