On one hand it will light your smoke, but if you need a little something extra in a lighter, it will also act as a stun gun.

It should be called the “Stun and Smoke” or “Smoke and Stun,”, but it’s simply called a “Multi Function Cigarette Lighter and Self-Defense Device.” How boring. In addition to lighting cigarettes, it features a 260KV ‘high voltage’ output, powered by an integrated NiCad rechargeable battery.

Hopefully you are fully charged when you encounter the bad guy in a dark alley, and you’re not in the middle of lighting up. This device also acts as an LED flashlight, because why not? Charging time is about 10 hours, during which time you won’t be stunning or smoking. By the time you get some of that nicotine, you’ll be shaking so bad that you’ll really want to stun somebody.

The Lighter/Stun Gun combo is available over on Focalprice for about $20(USD).

The only thing that’s missing is that either they could be made out of large pixels or strangely muscular cartoon drawings that are animated in low fps.

These illustrations are the work of artist Michael Musco. He loves his old school video games, especially Street Fighter and Super Mario Bros. The combinations are quite bizarre to be honest, but they do look good.

The result is pretty awesome and will most likely make you want to play some old school games. Thankfully, you won’t have to go far because you can play Street Fighter on or SFII on your phone these days.

Yeah, that used to mean something, but now, friends, you’re second tier. You’ve been kicked off the hill. Until you can throw down a little mood music on the piano with a flurry of buttons, you’re just small potatoes.

Looks like this super-excellent shirt is finally in production at Threadless, and has even been (color) corrected from the canonical problems noticed by a reader when we posted it before. The build-up in this shirt is as absurd as a David Foster Wallace sentence. Why make a small joke when instead you can go for something long, epic, and completely ridiculous? Love it. The candelabra is a nice touch.

“The Ultimate Combo” t-shirt is now available at Threadless and weighs in at $18.
