“China doesn’t have the best record when it comes to animal rights and this latest “shocking” abuse further proves the point. In waterfront Qingdao, vendors were selling heart shaped plastic keychains sealed with a live goldfish inside. Since the keychains are completely sealed there is very little air and no…
That’s right, a fellow from Russia by the name Suren Mkrtchan creates, what he believes, is a better gear. It works by replacing gear cogs with steel balls and accomplishing linkage by supplying the other side with matching dips. To make things interesting the inventor says that the balls are…
Do we really need this type of gadget? Is it so hard to squeeze the pump on a spray bottle that we need a motorized version? Lazy for the sake of lazy, AKA why Americans are fat. If you disagree with me, as I imagine the manufacturer Cepia may, you…

Watch Russ walk on eggshells, you gotta be careful with the religious bits. At first glance I thought these were a joke, they just don’t look real… but let me assure you, they are real. For about $25 you can get a statue with Jesus helping children in the following…
Not sure how some ideas actually make it past the drawing board all the way to a finished product in a three color box. But they just keep on coming. The latest “why” invention is a toilet paper printer that wirelessly connects to the internet and prints your favorite RSS…
I saw this at a friends house (Ray and Viv you ought to be ashamed of yourselves) over the weekend, and I wondered why anyone would buy this product. I mean, the last thing a kid needs after eating a sugary cereal is a sugary straw (?) to drink the…
