Motorized Cruzin Cooler

13 people recommended this item

Description

If you're having trouble balancing a 12-pack of Corona on your bike's handlebars, why not abandon the bike and trade up for a motorized cooler? You'll be the coolest kid on the block as you zoom by at a speedy 13 MPH. And if you drink and drive...you really only have 18" to fall...though I'd recommend a helmet and avoiding all roads and pedestrians.

Sushi Soap

6 people recommended this item

Description

The Sushi Soap Set contains eight pieces of expertly crafted and realistic looking Sushi soap. You can place these lovely little trinkets all over your house: the bathroom, the kitchen, and maybe even a few in the living room for some hip conversation pieces.

Let me start the conversation for you: " They are making sushi out of anything these days." Your response: "But nothing is as well crafted and as useful in a pinch as my Sushi Soap For the Bath."

Can of Worms

2 people recommended this item

Description

When someone says "now let's not open that can of worms" you can pull this out from your lunch bag and respond. "Good, because I carry my own can of worms and it is already opened." A payday moment when you see the look on their face as they gaze into the writhing contents of your own personal can of worms.

Dog-end Towel Holder

9 people recommended this item

Description

Dog-End will bring a smile to your face every time you go to dry your hands. Once you get over the awkwardness of what you have just seen... you'll begin to see a fun, kitschy, innocent 1950's-ness towel holder you've just got to get! Kinda gross, but kinda cute and definitely kinda cool. And, because this is the Perpetual Kid, kinda functional and very well executed too.

I don't like this at all. Makes me want to go to Wendy's or any other place besides BK. I am adding it to tacky but it really deserves its own list - CREEPY.

POLITICAL CANDIDATE NOTE HOLDERS

First to recommend

Description

Now, we can finally put those talking heads to good use. Funny and functional, political Zortz are clothespin puppets that can hold anything from notes, pens, keys, toothbrushes and more! Put them to good use, play with them, have a little political puppet show, or use them to show support for your favorite presidential candidate. Choose from Barack Obama, John McCain or Hillary Clinton.
