Disposable Toilet Plunger Sticker
Until yesterday, I have never heard of the Pongtu Toilet Plunger Sticker (3 for $28). Watching the video of this crazy contraption blew my mind.

Scary! This two-shot .380 caliber pistol is made to look like a smartphone. Yikes. Talk about concealed carry. Apparently this product, from Ideal Conceal, will hit the market in 2016 for $395.
