Slobber Stopper – the safety cover for birthday cakes

Not sure how to do this one. Slobber Stopper is a…um…’reusable cake cover’ which is designed to stop your children breathing their germs over the birthday cake when they blow out the candles. ! Everything about this product is classic, simply everything. The name, the teeny tiny niche market, the concept…oh lawks the concept…the marketing video, the health angle, the idea of sticking burning candles on top of plastic to stay safe, the aesthetics…oh my goodness me…the country of origin,…

T Power USB Stick – heal yourself with some geek love?

This T Power USB stick promises to reduce eyestrain, help blood circulation and generally improve your health and vitality through some unknown mechanism. We think it has to do with the fact that USB stands for Ultra Super Benefits, but we’re not sure. You’ll need to invest £39.95 in order to verify or disprove these claims, which may not be the best use of your time or money. Your call. Tags: gadget, t+power, usb+stick, usb

Accudot Laser Boresight – from the totally What The…R Us? Dept

Um…so this Accudot Laser Boresight is a ho-hum little laser beam gizmo you place into the chamber of a rifle to sight it up accurately. Slot it in and the laser will indicate where you’re pointing the business end. But what makes this totally post worthy is the fact that the product is on the Toys R Us kiddy site. HUH? And the comments underneath are beyond priceless comedy gold. $39.99. [Update: HaHa, they’ve pulled the page and replaced it with a new one to get rid of the…

3 Wheel Electric Police Car – Starsky’s original hutch?

In amongst all the hysterical marketing bandied around the world re eco-vehicles, it’s nice to see the Chinese patiently plodding ahead with their electric vehicle strategy. We would, however, love to be a fly on the wall – or a helicopter in the air – during a run-down car chase between this 3 Wheel Electric Police Car and any fleeing robbers. With a top speed of 45 mph and a range of just 90 miles, that would be some riveting prime…

Bling Band Aid – You sure do need first aid

I fear we are rapidly approaching our own unique brand of the shoe event horizon. Behold the Bling Band Aid, for when an ordinary, peeling, dirty band aid just isn’t going to cut it. Comes studded with four Swarovski crystals which apparently now have healing powers. Miraculously they’re currently sold out. US$12 when they’re not. What’s next, Swarovski encrusted aspirin? Blinged out band aids with 4 Swarovski crystals available in three crisp colors (White, Red and Pink) and one sweet…

Beware of the Chair – Why sitting down for long periods may be doing you harm

It’s been doom-and-gloom on the Ferret the last couple of weeks; deadly cellphones, global warming, death of the BBC, and now this bit of heart warming news; beware of the chair. It turns out that sitting down for long periods may be slowing killing you. Not just slouching in front of the TV with a jumbo sized bag of Doritos and Big Gulp, but sitting, in general, anywhere. Yeah I know more fun-killing by the doctors and scientists, but this…

Magic 8 Ball Gaming Chair – Disguised furniture

In my experience the Magic 8 Ball was supposed to answer all sorts of silly, life-altering questions. The only magic this Magic 8 Ball Gaming Chair is capable of is keeping your feet or bum off the ground. It’s inflatable, has an 8 on the outside, and you can choose from number 9 or 11 inside. The top (or is it the bottom) zips off to become a seat or you can just leave it as it is, kick back…
