Witness An Apparition Every Morning With The Minor Miracle Mug
Don’t believe in miracles? The Minor Miracle Mug might make a believer of you yet.
From the outside, it looks no different than any regular drinking vessel from the cupboard. Finish your coffee, however, and fix your eyes at the bottom to discover a miraculous image appearing out of nowhere, which the mug’s creators have playfully christened Our Lady of the Latte.
The Minor Miracle Mug is a ceramic coffee mug that’s as pedestrian as you can imagine – it’s white, it’s got a handle and it can serve steaming hot drinks with the best of them. Nothing special. Well, nothing except for a barely discernible, carved imprint of a popular Christian image on the bottom, which becomes more conspicuous when your pour a small amount of colored drinks onto it.
Remember all those news stories of tortilla chips that have been burned with biblical images, grilled sandwiches with “divine” messages and similar [...]
Weed Whacking Golf Driver Lets You Cheat At Golf
You take a swing, the ball flies and it lands on thick grass. Just your luck – it looks like you’re paying for the evening’s round of drinks again. Or maybe not with the Weed Whacking Golf Driver, an innocent-looking club that sneakily hides a built-in grass trimmer.
At a glance, it looks like a regular driver that’s slightly oversized. We doubt anyone will even pay it any mind while you take it out of your golf bag and take it near the ball, pretending to calculate what kind of shot you should aspire for. Push a single button, however, and the plastic bottom flips open. Do the same with another button and the integrated single-string cutter goes to work, clearing the area around your ball’s unfortunate landing spot.
The Weed Whacking Golf Driver is a 1 lb., 39-inch long club that’s equipped to get rid of obstructive grass on the down [...]
Danger Bomb Alarm Clock: Diffuse Or Die
There’s nothing like waking up to the threat of imminent death (actually, loss of hearing, but we’re being dramatic). That’s what the Danger Bomb Alarm Clock is counting on, which requires you to correctly disarm it lest it explodes.
Don’t worry, it’s not lethal. The explosion will just be of the seriously loud and irritating variety, like the sound effects in action movies. You know, the kind that’s supposed to rouse your lazy, half-awake ass into getting ready for work.
The Danger Bomb Alarm Clock is a full-featured digital bedside timer with a bomb-diffusing twist. Sure, it lets you see the time and configure alarms, but sets itself apart with how that alarm is delivered. About a minute before the actual time you set it to wake you up, it’s going to start beeping. That means you have to get up and disarm the bomb…or suffer [...]
Drivemocion LED Car Sign Makes Middle Finger Obsolete
During a fit of road rage, seeing middle fingers flying left and right is nothing new. Other than that obvious sign of adulation (apparently, it means “You’re number #1″), though, it’s hard to communicate what you really want to say while driving in a busy highway.
The Drivemocion LED Car Sign saves you from that inability, allowing you to send crystal-clear, unclouded messages to other drivers on the road. Want to apologize for cutting someone inadvertently? Choose the SORRY signal, which displays an excusatory face, followed by the actual word “sorry.” Guy behind almost rear-ended you at the stoplight? Tell him off by getting your machine to display “idiot SLOW down.” Awesome.
Designed to hang on your rear window using a suction cup, the Drivemocion comes with a total of 16 different expressions, running the gamut from friendly (like saying “Have a nice day”) to aggressive (such as showing an angry face, [...]
USB-Powered Pet Rock Comes To Life, Still Does Nothing
Love pets but hate the extra work they bring? Back in the 70s, they had a solution for that: the Pet Rock. This year, the world’s least-disruptive household ward is making a comeback in the form of the USB-Powered Pet Rock.
How is it different? Instead of just being a hard mass of earth that you can carry along anywhere, your new favorite pet comes with a USB plug so you can connect it to your computer. While stuck to a port, you can continue to use your pet to hold down lumps of paper, stroke it to your heart’s content or sing to it. You will need to unplug it in order to break your office tyrant’s car windshield, though.
If you were expecting the USB Pet Rock to come with any nifty tricks, you’re dead wrong. Once plugged in, it will still do nothing. Like it always does. Which is [...]
Bald Man’s Comb: Grooming Supplies For That Time Of Your Life
It’s your birthday. You’re another year older, hopefully a year wiser and with your top just a tad thinner than it has always been.
You open up your presents one by one, suddenly chancing upon one with a plastic over-the-head strap in tow. Oh, good, someone gave you a pair of headphones. You sit back and hope it works better than the last cheap pair of cans you bought a month ago.
As you pull out the headphones, however, something seems amiss. Where are the earpieces?
So you check the label, squint your eyes and look again. It’s not a pair of earphones at all. Instead, it’s a Bald Man’s Comb, a grooming implement designed specially for people like you. Sporting hair-straightening teeth kept to both ends of the strap, it’s designed to comb through those remaining patches of growth right above your ears. It’s mean, I know.
Intended as a gag-gift for the [...]
