10 - iBreath and Power Pouch
The iBreath is a combination ipod and breathalyzer. Obviously, there are a lot of people who have a hard time juggling both devices. If you need a breathalyzer to check if you're OK to drive, couldn't you just listen to the radio in your car?
The Power Pouch is actually a sports bra with compartments to fit your iPod and its cord. It has a complicated ventilation system to keep your body (and iPod) cool. However, the fact that such a ventilation system is necessary is a pretty good reason why the iPod and sports bra should be separated.
9 - Weasel Coffee Beans
Someone came up with the grand idea that coffee would taste better if it were (hold on to your stomach) eaten and regurgitated by a weasel. Something about the weasel's digestive system must be absolutely flavor-ific, because this is a real item. Other real, but disgusting, food items include Squid Ink Ice Cream, Musk Flavored Life Savers and Giant Water Bugs in Curry Sauce.
8 - Glow-in-the-Dark Pooper Scooper
The Sanitation Safety Stick (S3) is designed for taking your dog out for his late-night "business trips." It has a built-in flashlight, scoop and storage unit. As goofy as it sounds, it makes sense in a way. Dogs may also like the SnackShotz Treat Launcher, for people who are too lazy to toss Snausages to their dog
7 - Kitty Litter Robot
The technology behind this item makes sense. It has a rotating base that dumps the cat waste into a drawer. The question is, will your kitty feel comfortable entering a space pod when it's time to go potty? Another cat item is the Thermo Kitty Sill, which is a warmed-up, fake windowsill. All your cat will need is a DVD of the "Aristo-Cats."
6 - Computer Thumb
If you want a reputation around the office as a psycho killer, get yourself this item. It stores 128 MB of data and looks like a severed human thumb. On a more light-hearted note, you can pick up the Duck-Shaped Vacuum that plugs into your computer, or a USB Hamster Wheel, which spins as fast as you type.
5 - Toxic Waste Lollipops
The idea behind the candy itself is not so bad. It starts sour, then turns sweet, then turns extremely sour. So why it packaged in a toxic waste drum?
4 - Finger Drums
Speaking of drums, this is a miniature drum kit that you play with your fingers. You can even record and play back your mini-John Bonham solos. Sounds cool, right? Well if you bring this to work, your co-workers will bug you to let them play it on Day 1 and then smash it to bits on Day 2 when they get tired of your racket.
3 - Baby Boom Pregnancy Clock
This is a watch that tracks a woman's most fertile days. Also when a woman is pregnant, it will tell her the week of the pregnancy. Doesn't this sound a little more like a calendar than a watch? This device also has a name finder to help choose the baby's name. "Mommy, how did you pick my name?" "Well, dear, I was wearing this goofy watch …"
2 - Treadmill Bike
This is exactly what is sounds like. It's a treadmill perched on a bike. Is biking not enough exercise that you need to actually walk on a treadmill too? Not only will you have to fend off the stares and laughter of the others in the park, but this item has "disastrous crash" written all over it.
1 - TV Chair
Never before has so much work gone into a product so useless. I am impressed that the Swedish designer of this item was able to build two TV sets into a chair. However, if you're sitting on one screen and your back is against the other, how can you watch anything? I hope it has TiVo!

Post a CommentI want a Kitty Litter Robot! :)
The Treadmill Bike is a weird product for sure, but I think the Couchbike made by the same company is also worth a look: http://www.bikeforest.com/cb
LOL this is great. I think the hamster and the treadmill are my fav's.
