Apology Form makes saying “Sorry!” easier

July 31st, 2008 by AndrewD in Wacky Gadgets

I never had much problem apologizing for the things I do wrong. Though, of course, I never do anything wrong. Just ask my parole officer. But for some of you gadgeteers out there, communicating an apology might be one of the hardest things for you to do. And you’re not alone.

Thankfully, there’s a way to apologize without having to be respectful enough to do it face to face with the victim. These handy pads of Apology Forms provide a nice little template for saying your sorry, the easy way. Not to mention, it hosts a list of some truly awesome excuses.

So, you left the toilet seat up, and your wife is pissed off. Ok, I guess that’s understandable. But we really need an excuse without having to admit we’re lazy. Let’s just check our handy Apology From. Hmmm, “Mercury was in retrograde” seems like a mildly obscure one. She’ll never knew what hit her!

This Treadmill will have you literally climbing the walls …

July 31st, 2008 by James in Sport, Wacky Gadgets

There are many ways to get exercise, most involving treadmills. Astronauts use them to keep in shape while in space, veterinarians use them to rehab Kentucky Derby winners, and even former Olympic swimmers use them to maintain that finely honed swimming stroke. But what about the poor mountain climber? Sure, there are portable rock walls that kids learn to climb at summer camps and adults at county fairs, but they only go about 25 feet high. Challenging for the novice, but once you ring the bell, where’s the challenge? Thanks to the Treadwall, the challenge is not only there, it’s never ending.

Travelmate Fireplace

July 31st, 2008 by Edwin in Wacky Gadgets



Now is this a weird looking fireplace or what - it comes in the form of a briefcase which sends a message that this is highly portable, handle and all. Perfect for the upcoming winter (better be prepared than never, I say), the Travelmate makes it a snap for you to stay warm no matter where you are. No idea on what the Travelmate uses for fuel, but it is highly possible that it uses some sort of alcohol gel that other smokeless fireplaces make do with. Magnets will keep the glass sides in place, so you’ll have to remove those before you light it up. Make sure the glass sides are placed back in order to prevent any untoward accidents. The Travelmate fireplace ain’t cheap though as it retail for $3,300 a pop.

Coffin Cars: Highway To Hell

July 29th, 2008 by AndrewD in Vehicle Gadgets, Wacky Gadgets

When AC/DC wrote their metal classic “Highway To Hell”, who could have ever predicted that the song would be taken so literally? Of course, what else are we supposed to do with all of those spare coffins we have lying around the house? I, for one, don’t plan on using them for anything productive anytime soon.

Get dressed in your finest suit and prepare for the ride of your life. This photo tutorial shows you how a simple coffin became much more than just a death trap. These Coffin Cars have all of the leg room you could ever need, not to mention it provides a nice place to sleep if you become stranded… forever. Muahahahah!

Eyeball Lamps clone your eyes

July 29th, 2008 by Ally in Home Gadgets, Wacky Gadgets

This new lamp can be filed under all that is bizarre and the slightest bit creepy.  They are hand blown glass and made to look exactly like your eyes.  So if you’re a bit full of yourself when it comes to your eye color, now you can show it off through a bit of quirky lighting.  Although I imagine your guests would feel the slightest bit unnerved by sitting next to a set of lamps that keep staring back at them.

Twitter Fortune Cookies: Sorry Confucius

July 28th, 2008 by AndrewD in Wacky Gadgets

Even if you’re not a Twitter user, these awesome Twitter fortune cookies are a stroke of genius. Twitter user Neven Mrgan has decided to integrate some of the best “tweets” ever written into the crunchy interior of fortune cookies. Now we know how the Fail Whale maintains such a healthy girth! Tons and tons of cookies.

Mrgan will supposedly sell these cookies starting in September. How awesome would it be if your local chinese resturant stocked up on some of these bad boys? I think I’d order Chinese food a hell of a lot more. How would you like to break open a fortune cookie and fine the wise words of Merlin Mann or Robert Scoble? Sorry Confucius, we might be won over.

Bloody Shower Curtain makes you a mama’s boy

July 28th, 2008 by AndrewD in Home Gadgets, Wacky Gadgets

The most notorious mama’s boy of all time has got to be Norman Bates from Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho. He takes the term and brings it to a whole new level of derangement. The only problem is that the original Psycho wasn’t much of a slasher flick. It was built more around suspense than anything else.

But for those who are fans of blood and guts, you might have been slightly disappointed by what they get from the Hitchcock thriller. There have been Psycho themed shower curtains in the past, and really, how could there not be with that famous bathroom scene? But none of them show much bloodshed. This Sound/Motion sensing Bloody Shower Curtain fits the bill for those of you who are more in to slashers than suspense.
