The iGiveUp | Handgun Bluetooth Headset is Stupid


So, the idea of this bluetooth headset is to let you answer your phone calls by pulling a trigger when aiming a gun at your head. I don't know about you, but I'm probably not gonna carry a toy gun around and there's even less chance of me aiming it at my head when I'm on the bus with people staring at me just hoping I go through with it. Then of course, there are the legalities involved with carrying a toy gun in public, which I don't really know about but I don't want to get arrested for suspicious activity or something.

Regardless of all these flaws, people still want to get this thing. I don't get it. Who the hell wants to use this in public? It's funny for about 1.2 seconds then you realize what a stupid idea it is to be pointing a gun at your ear to answer a call.

The Most Awesomest Invention Ever | The Bubble Wrap Calendar


GET A FREAKING BUBBLE CALENDAR
In my opinion, whoever thought up of this idea is a genius. Everytime I look at one of those poor, innocent, and over-inflated bubbles I just want to pop it and put it out of its misery. Now, I know doing this daily will be a problem for the many people out there that have that same sense of bubble-popping justice as I do...but that's what the package deals are for!...so if you let loose on one calendar you can still have 9 more! Supposedly, if you contact them they will give you a good package deal to satisfy all your OCD needs.

Oh, btw, these calendars are ridiculously expensive.

For those of you who don't mind virtually relieving these bubbles, go HERE and let loose

The Disgusting and Creepy Future of Advertising

So you're at the club, you're squinting your eyes to peer across the room to get a good look at the "hot chick" that all your drunk friends are talking way too loudly about. You get a good look, they're right, she's really hot...but you figure, that's a just eye-candy that you'll never get a taste of. However, your drunk friends push you to go and talk to her or at least buy her a drink. So, before you have time to say no, three of your drunk and obnoxious friends are dragging you across the dance floor through walls of annoyed people to talk to her. You arrive at the allocated destination and you wave awkwardly at her and manage to mumble out of your shaking mouth:

"Uh...hi"

The super-hot-way-out-of-your-league chick gives you a funny look which (fortunately) fades into a smile and she responds nonetheless:

"Hi"

Now you're thinking "omg she said hi to me and smiled". All of a sudden you feel like you could teach "how to mac on hot chics 101" and you turn on your sexy-man voice and drop your best one-liners at her. Soon enough, you've got her laughing at all your jokes and giggling at all your actions. Your friends are in dismay, and they awe at your presence. She tells you she wants you to take a picture with her on her camera. She pulls out her impressive new SONY camera and tells you to hold it up to take the picture because she claims you have much longer (not to mention, stronger) arms. *SNAP* you take the picture, and just as you're handing it back to her she tells you how that camera was a birthday present from her dad and it's been the best gift she's gotten since that pony in grade five. You give the camera a double take... and realize that...damn...that really is a nice camera...so, super-hot-way-out-of-your-league chick, tell me more about it. And NOW...they got you. Turns out this girl knows a whole lot about this camera and starts telling you great stories about her adventures with it and all the wonderful things it can do. But one thing she never tells you is that she's an undercover marketing agent for SONY...and you just got played by people who made you think you were Mr.MacDaddy. And, this isn't fiction, it's happening right now, right in your favourite club (PLUSH, ATLANTIS, 686, THE ROYAL, CAPRIS, WILD COYOTE)...and it might've already happened to you. PLUS, this is only 1 of 5 different techniques of advertising that corporations will be using consistently in the future. So, right now, you look up at the image for this post and you think that that's advertising at it's best..."hot girl with a VAIO computer...I want it because sex sells". Sure, it's a very successful form of advertising, but it's not even close to what's the most effective. Don't believe me? read THIS and find out what the disgusting and creepy future of advertising is going to be like.

Get a Life...Literally...Buy It from Ian Usher


It's crazy the stuff you can get off Ebay these days, but none of the used socks and empty cardboard boxes come remotely close to what 44-year-old Ian Usher is offering. If you ever were to meander across Alife4sale.com, you would know that I aint joking. The name of the site kinda gives it away already, and it's kinda too shocking to actually believe - But, believe it or not, Ian Usher is auctioning his LIFE online. Why? well, to keep a long story short, girl troubles (he's got more than 99 problems...hehe...lame, i know). Either way, for the right price, some lucky (and slightly pathetic) soul can have Mr. Usher's house, car, motorbike, job, friends, and everything else that he owns. Now, I know what you're thinking, who in their right mind would want to buy someone else's life - it's degrading, expensive, pathetic, and... WELL YOU'RE WRONG MY FRIEND...the highest bid is a fraction away from $400,000 AU (which is around $390,000 CDN) and it doesn't end for another...oh...18 hours? So...seriously...go check it out...and maybe, get a life.

HOW TO MAKE YOUR LIFE EASIER AT THE OFFICE...

Don't you just hate it when you get up late for work, throw your pre-made lunch into your bag and drive very dangerously to work just arriving at 9am, only to realize at 12pm that you forgot your damn fork!? Yeah, me neither, I'm awesome, so I never forget my fork.
Either way, this innovative (and eco-friendly) pen/knife/fork/spoon isn't disposable like the cheap plastic stuff you would usually bring, and it uses the caps of regular pens as the head of the utensil. Check out the article regarding this office life-saver.

Also, check out this Self-Stirring Coffee Mug, which, according to the article, is already sold out.

The world is just getting lazier and lazier.
