In a snowball fight, accuracy is not everything as you also need to have an abundant amount of ammunition to wear down the opposing team. With the Sno-Baller, things could turn the tide in your favor pretty soon.

The Sno-Baller turns out huge numbers of snowballs in seconds, so gloves stay drier and hands warmer, and you can fire away without running out — crucial in family and neighborhood snowball fights! Snow Block Maker forms perfect-sized chunks for snow forts and walls, and also works in sand at the beach. Injection-molded high-impact plastic.

Strangely enough, the product page can’t seem to load at the moment. Still, this sounds like an unfair advantage if you happen to indulge yourself in snowball fights.

Unless you’re under a rock, you know Valentine’s Day is coming up. You can’t go into a store without seeing the acres of red and pink and hearts and all the other things that go along with this sappy holiday designed to sell boxes of candy and keep the greeting card industry afloat.

But what if you could give a crap about Valentine’s Day? Is there a “Bah Humbug” phrase for the anti-Valentine crowd? Or are you newly single and have a lot of angst for anything to do with this sickeningly sweet holiday? Well, have I got the thing for you.

Think Geek is selling Despair, Inc.’s (the creator of the fantastic Demotivators) Bittersweets. They have three different “themes”: Dejected, Dysfunctional, and Dumped. Reminiscent of the traditional candy hearts, these Bittersweets don’t have cutesy sayings like “BE MINE” or “LUV U”, but more sinister platitudes like “RATHER DRINK” and “TRADIN YOU IN”. Here’s the full list of each set: Read the rest of this entry »

Some of you might be thinking that this some antiquated attire, but that is actually the USB Muumuu. Allow me to explain what the USB is, with an antiquated communication that lovers on a budget used to use.

When I was in college, I had a friend who had a boyfriend who lived far away. Well, it wasn’t too far away, but it was far enough to be long distance. Well, as you know, long distance calls are expensive, so one of them used to call, then promptly put the phone down, so the phone would ring once. Then the other would call, then hang up quickly, returning the one-ring with another one-ring.

I have no idea how this “one-ringer” tradition started between them, but I bring it up because that is what the USB Moo Moo is: an updated version of the one-ringer.

Fancy going out for a bowling game with your mates, but have yet to get permission from the missus? The Bowling Game could help stave off your itch temporarily.

This bowling game allows you to roll strikes, spares, and gutter balls on a desk or table. Players use the ramp to aim and hurl the steel ball down the lane; the ramp slides across the width of the lane to provide the necessary ball-release angles for picking up the dreaded seven-ten split. The solid oak lane has target arrows that provide a visual guide, and the pins are easy to set up, yet offer a stern challenge to both novice and seasoned tabletop bowlers.

The Bowling Game is available from Hammacher for $39.95.

Simple, yet stupid, and fun - those are the characteristics of most prank products, and the following list is a proof of that. From sport related pranks like special golf balls, to annoying the crap out of your office buddies by using a remote control, it is all here.

Voice Changer Professional Version

In case you want to make the old-school phone call pranks to friends, you got better chances to be successful if your voice isn’t recognizable.

To achieve the desired effect, use the Professional Voice Changer in which you can adjust the pitch to make the voice sound go higher, or lower.

It plugs into your phone so you do not have to hold it over the phone’s mouthpiece.

Installs in seconds by plugging into the handset and base of any single line phone. Will not work on multiline phone systems.

The Voice Changer is available at Amazon for $35.

Remote Control Middle Finger

The middle finger can be used in plenty of different occasions, be it with friends at home, on the office with the buddies, and also onyour car to express your “gratitude” to other drivers.

The wireless remote control has a range of 50 feet (15 meters) and in order to work, just press the button and watch the middle finger rise up.

Give someone the finger with the push of a button. Remote-control allows finger to magically rise up and flip ‘em the bird!

It costs $28 at PrankPlace.

The Remote-Controlled Tarantula

Do you have friends that suffer from Arachnophobia? Also known as being very afraid of spiders? If the answer was yes, and for some odd reason you want to scare them to death, maybe the Remote-Controlled Tarantula is exactly what you need.

To make it similar to a real spider, it even is a bit hairy. You will need a couple of AA batteries to get the prank done right: 2 batteries for the remote control, and another 2 for the tarantula.

This remote-control tarantula scurries across flat surfaces like an actual arachnid, moving forwards, backwards, and rotates 360. The spider’s eight legs move independently and the eyes light up, allowing you to frighten unsuspecting arachnophobes day or night.

Priced at $25 on Hammacher.

Now I’m not too sure whether this dartboard will help increase your concentration when it comes to hitting the bulls’ eye as it really boils down to your temperament, but whatever the case is, this is one of the more interesting dartboards we’ve seen to date. I’m giving this five minutes in the local pub before some drunk idiot starts to add some graffiti on her.
