Finger Socket Wrench

Let me count the ways this will not work.  Why/how does this type of stuff make it from the dumb idea that it is to a “working” prototype? First of all it is made of plastic!  Um… the nut is metal!  Second, if that nut has a bolt passing through…

Shortage Of Campaign Crap Addressed

  San Jose entrepreneur Heather Courtney, cranked out the idea for this presidential campaign gem. Just in time for elections, for a mere $29.95 plus shipping, the Barack-in-the-Box toy comes to us from China, the place world renown for safe, well built, child friendly toys. Barack-in-the-box plays "Hail to the…

Another Fake Lamborghini On Ebay

We have seen quite a few fake Ferraris and Lamborghinis on eBay over the years… and this one is not much better… however they did start with a newer car…  Seems most of the fake kit cars start off with a crappy 1980’s Pontiac Fiero.  These guys built their kit…

Motorola Aura – Expensive Cell Phone

Tired of trying to impress folks with your fake Rolex… try using a $2,000 status symbol of a cell phone… the Motorola Aura. The Motorola Aura sports a 16-Million color display (that is round), a 62-carat sapphire crystal lens, a stainless steel housing (which takes about two weeks to manufacture),…

Pratone (Lawn) Chair

Let me start off with the crazy price – $14,165 and a big WTF.  I like the idea… but I was thinking more like $100 for a polyurethane giant lawn chair thingy.  Oh well. [Source]

Some crafty fellow in the UK is selling his Daihatsu pickup truck with an attached jet engine on ebay.  There isn’t much mention of running the truck with the jet pack… in fact the ebay seller kinda dodges the issue for legal issues I assume. Anyone prepared to run the…

Toilet Putting Green?

  Another colossal waste of time, money, plastic, and metal.  The Tee Time Toilet Potty Putting Green will set you back $17 (money that you could just send to me instead) and comes with a putting green, 2 balls, a mini golf club, cup with flag, and an occupied sign…

Weener Kleener?

For only $5.45 you can have the most inappropriate soap in your shower… or you can get your buddy quite the gag gift.  Weener Kleener Soap says that "personal hygiene has never been as stimulating"… that is assuming it fits your weener.  But they claim that "one size fits MOST…

Jaguar Motorcycle = WTF

Lee J. Rowland you should be ashamed of yourself for making this motorcycle.  The bike jaguar cat uses a 1200cc Buell 97 S3 Thunderbold engine and looks like it may be technically sound…. but… you will not look cool on this thing.  In fact, you will look like you are…

Night Sweat Alarm?

  This doesn’t even seem real from an idea standpoint… not to mention the picture looks like a bad Photoshop job.  Either way it made it into skymall?! This  seemingly useless device goes around your wrist or ankle and informs you (by way of vibrations and a loud alarm) that…
