You gotta love those koozies that keep your beer (or whatever your beverage of choice is) insulated while you eat, watch TV, or do whatever it is you do while you gulp down your drink. If you’re feeling especially macho, then you need a koozie that reflects just that.

Some walk lights have buttons you can press to let the system know that there are pedestrians waiting to cross, while some others have a Pong game unit instead. Too bad you can only find the latter in Germany.

Here’s a couple of things you can do when you’re angry: grab your Damnit Doll, whip out your Calligraphuck Cards, or reach for your Profanity Generator. The first two options delay your expression of anger, while the last just helps you come up with words to describe it.

If you can believe it, the first Johnny Depp movie I saw was Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas – and I’ve been a fan ever since. It was an unconventional take on the quest to find the American dream.

Cupcakes have been an obsession of food connoisseurs everywhere for years, and we’ve seen some weird creations thus far.  The Cupcake Nuggets?  Extremely original – no sarcasm.  Savor this moment, friends, because my posts are generally dripping in sarcasm, and my fried chicken wings are always dripping in grease.  

We’re no stranger to robot drummers – or robot musicians for that matter – but StickBoy stands out for a couple of reasons. Make that four reasons. The rock and roll robot makes up for its seemingly immobile hips by having four arms.

Games are meant to take your mind off reality. People play games to distract themselves from the million and one problems they’re currently having at work or in their business. However, the Urban Renewal board game probably won’t be much of a game for you if you work as a city councilor or developer.

You’ve tried all sorts of cocktails and added all kinds of fruits, vegetables and tiny umbrellas to your drink. Why not add a shot of technology to the mix? LiteCubes are freezable nontoxic plastic 1″ blocks that light up.

It’s very rare that I print anything out from my digital communications today. I haven’t printed an e-mail in months and the last time I did print was because my insurance company e-mailed me new cards.

I’m not a morning person. Never was one and probably never will be, but I began to doubt that (just a little) when I saw the Shoot to Snooze alarm clock.

Almost everything can be turned into a weapon. I think that much is clear if you’ve seen footage of prison brawls, where anything from spoons to toothbrushes can be deadly objects. How much more if prisoners somehow manage to grab an officer’s pen?

If you’ve lived where you’ve lived your entire life, then things could start to get boring. There are no new places left to explore anymore and you’ll feel like you’ve been everywhere and done everything there is to do in your hometown. 

You won’t see phone booths as creative or as colorful as the ones you’ll find in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Typically, phone booths are made to look plain so they’ll blend in with the surroundings, and only the people actually looking for them will be able to really “see” them.

Technology is great for lots of things, but it’s not doing book publishers any favors. At least, those who haven’t gone digital and just sell books in their traditional form. Book sales have been dropping ever since iPads, Kindles, and Nooks hit.

Darth Vader might not look it, but he’s actually pretty yummy. I’m not talking about the looks of the actors who played him in the movies, but this blueberry-and-licorice-flavored ice cream shaped in the image and likeness of Luke Skywalker’s greatest enemy (who also happens to be his father!)

After his performance in The Dark Knight Rises, I think it’s safe to say that Christian Bale can now be crowned as one of Hollywood’s superhero elites. I know this is a weird question to ask, but have you ever imagined him – and all your other favorite superheroes – as manatees?
