Squeeze Me - Lemon Squeezer

Updated Jul 25, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

When I have to squeeze lemons for cooking or for adding some fresh flavor to my iced tea, I'm tired of being squirted in the face and plucking out those sneaky rogue seeds from these mischievous little tropical fruits. Maybe you don't have these issues, but I seem very prone to abuse from my citrus. I found another solution to this dilemma, the cool new Squeeze Me - Lemon Squeezer ($27).

Simply drop a lemon half into the bulb end of the Squeeze Me Lemon Squeezer, attach the spout and squeeze away, hmmm, feel free to absolutely crush them! As the fragrant juice flows forth from the spout, all of the seeds and pulp are safely contained and held at bay by a built-in retainer. If there is any unusued juice left over, simply store the whole thing in the fridge.

This is a great culinary weapon in the war against lemons that like to assault and frustrate the cook, but where there's lemons, there's always evil limes! (via Michael Kiely)

Mini Gummy Bear Soap

Description

What's better than eating those yummy little Gummy Bears? Washing your hands with them! Yep, now you and your kids can keep your hands clean with these cool Mini Gummy Bear Soaps ($7) that are the same size, shape and smell as real Gummy Bears! The set includes 25 Gummy Bear soaps with five of each different color - Cherry/red, pineapple/milky white, lime/green, lemon/yellow, and orange/orange. I wouldn't recommend eating any of these non-toxic glycerine faux bear soaps, even for punishment! I'm still waiting for gummy berry juice that makes you bounce from that old cartoon, but these are still pretty cool. (via Michael Kiely)

Aquapict LED Illuminated Jellyfish Aquarium

Updated Jul 17, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

The cool new Aquapict LED Illuminated Jellyfish Aquarium ($169) from Japan lets you enjoy the mysterious and hypnotic wonders of deep sea jellyfish right on your very own desk. Maintaining a bloom of real jellyfish would be difficult in an office, but these are made from highly-realistic silicone and move by a slow current that does not have an obvious flow or bubbles. The just look very realistic as they appear to swim and billow around the tank. A five color LED lighting system illuminates the tank in two modes, regular or deep sea, in 11 different color patterns. Cool Huh? (via Michael Kiely)

Lifesize Zombie Garden Sculpture

Updated Jul 15, 2008

1st to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

The Lifesize Zombie Garden Sculpture ($90) AKA the Zombie of Montclaire Moors Sculpture should provide more than enough fun both in and out of the garden. This scary undead zombie will look great crawling out of the Earth in your garden, reaching out from under your neighbor's lawn or just in front of a headstone at the local cemetary!

It was designed by British artist Alan Dickinson and cast in a durable quality resin with a realistic gray-toned finish. It features lifelike, er soulless eyes, and a horrifically detailed expression that looks like it really wants to claw it's way out, dismember your body and eat your brains slowly.

It's a great spooky prop for Halloween, a little creative landscaping or just for some twisted and macabre fun! (via Michael Kiely)

Money to Burn - Fire Starters

Updated Jul 15, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

With gas prices finally getting as high as the bottled water in this country and no outrage, revolution or relief in sight, we apparently just have too much money to burn. If you don't feel you do, you could just pretend with the cool new Money to Burn - Fire Starters ($13).

Impress your friends as you light up fireplaces, campfires, backyard bonfires or alley garbage cans with wads of realistic rolled up hundred dollar bills. Unlike real cash, these faux benjamins are coated with a slow-burning wax that stay lit until your logs or kindling catch fire.

Actually, with the collapsing value of the Dollar lately, it might just be cheaper to use the real thing! (via Michael Kiely)

King Pepper Baseball Bat Pepper Grinders

Updated Jul 10, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

The King Pepper Jr. Baseball Bat Pepper Grinder ($35) is the perfect BBQ seasoning accessory for any baseball fan. It seems like most wooden pepper mills look like miniature baseball bats anyways, so I'm surprised noone thought of this until now. The 19 inch long King Pepper Jr. is made from 100% natural Beech wood, is pre-loaded with with gourmet black pepper, features a solid stainless steel grinding mechanism and even includes a mounting bracket for holding it when not in use. Great gift.

Now, if you really like baseball or just really like pepper, King Pepper also makes a huge Lifesize King Pepper Baseball Bat Pepper Grinder ($50)! There's no cork in this bat, just pure peppercorn! (via Michael Kiely)

Mohawk Drink Hat

Updated Jul 1, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

I don't believe I've ever had the pleasure of drinking from a beer helmet before, but I might give it a go with the funny Mohawk Drink Hat ($17). Unlike a boring old helmet, this hat looks like a head with a mohawk hairstyle with two cupholders hanging off each side. Simply, crack open a few cold ones, strap this thing to your head and hook up the cans to the built-in straw. Now you are ready to drink like a true punk-warrior, while enjoying the game.

Facebank is Hungry for Coins!

Updated Jun 26, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

The Facebank is literally just a face that eats your money. When you bring a coin close to its mouth, the sensors in its eyes will detect it and it awakens. Now place the coin in its mouth and watch in sheer amazement or maybe in terror as the mouth slowly chews up the coin and swallows it. Way creepy! (via Michael Kiely)

Heart-Shaped Cucumber Mold Set

Updated Jun 24, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

Remember those weird Japanese Pyramid and Square Shaped Watermelons or the Cubed Eggs? Well now you can geometrically alter nature's plans again right in your very own garden with the cool new Heart-Shaped Cucumber Mold Set ($59). Simply go out to your garden and slip these unique molds over the small baby cucumbers. As they grow larger, they will be forced to grow into perfect heart shapes! Cool invention huh?

I know it sounds like cruelty to vegetables, hmmm maybe it is, but it doesn't matter since cucumbers can't scream, will be thinly sliced into salads - heart-shaped slices - and drowned in delicious dressing anyways. Yum. (via Michael Kiely)

Black Tissues from Japan

Updated Jun 23, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

I never knew I needed facial tissues to be in any color other than white, until I saw these cool new Black Tissues from Japan ($149). Apparently, traditional white household items like paper towels, cotton swabs, toilet paper, toothpaste and more are now going dark in Japan. They feel that black has a "clean" feeling and shows casual luxury and sophistication. Fascinating as far as luxury tissues go, but unfortunately you'll need to purchase 20 boxes of tissues at a time. (via Michael Kiely)

Grow Your Own Super Mario 1up Mushroom

Updated Jun 23, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

I'm not sure if they are legal or not outside of the Mushroom Kingdom, but now you can Grow Your Own 1up Mushrooms ($10). Super Mario and his brother Luigi have smuggled in some very rare and magical extra life mushroom spores in through the water pipes, so you can grow one right on your desk at work. Simply add potting soil to the cool green warp pipe planter, water it and keep it in the underworld where it's dark. Soon your 1up mushroom will appear and you'll get one more chance at conquering the evil Bowser and rescuing the Princess!

Hmmm, some of you may believe this is real, it isn't. This 1up mushroom is actually made of vinyl and is from Japan, but the sewer-pipe planter really does hold soil. A great illusion for any office cubicle or Super Mario fan. (via Michael Kiely)

Hand Captured Irish Leprechaun

Updated Jun 23, 2008

1st to recommend

Description

Inside the ventilated cheesecloth-covered mason jar sits a lucky Hand Captured Irish Leprechaun ($30) on a little bit of his forest bedding. Can you get him to tell you where he hid all his gold, treasure, clovers and wealth? It can all be yours with one of these Freshly Caught Fairy Folk hand captured in England by the Friend Catchers of England. The gas prices are skyrocketing, the housing market is collapsing and the economy sucks... but none of it will matter if you can simply get your imprisoned mythical Leprechaun to start talking.
