Because not all gadgets are cool

When you blow a circuit and have to wander down into your dark and spooky basement, nothing puts your fears at ease like having a flashlight.  I’m sure these gruesome flashlights would scare off anything that might even consider going bump in the night.  They come in three different styles, a giant rat, a giant eyeball and then a green bug.  I don’t see any of them putting off a stellar amount of light, but it might be fun for kids to have around.  You can pick up the Flashfright Torches for £5.95 or about $9.

I don’t know about you ladies, but getting a guy to aim properly when he’s finishing up his small business in the toilet can be quite a challenge. Despite having seemingly superior apparatus compared to women, we guys sometimes let loose our spray without second thoughts about where it ends up. Just take a look at most men’s room floors and you’ll know what I mean. This color-changing ball could do just the trick, letting men all over the world aim properly. Just a thought though - I certainly wouldn’t want to pay £5.99 for something that causes splash damage to my clothes when I’m relieving myself.

No, I’m not talking about those type of fantasies - get out of here! The Inflatable Husband is meant for women who yearn for the perfect hubby (none exist in this world as far as I can tell) who is great at listening to ladies’ diatribes without answering back, ever. In addition, he is also a pretty good saver, leaving you with most of your cash for your pleasure since he sits at home around all day long without spending any money. Other benefits include having the toilet seat always down, not watching football and is 100% faithful. Too bad this $16.95 spouse won’t bring home the bacon though - that’s a major bummer.

You know how there are a few ways to get one’s temperature with a thermometer? Apart from placing one end of it under the tongue or snuggling it under your armpit, you can also stick it up the rear end, which should make your colleagues wary of you whenever you pull out the Thermometer Pen. This $1.79 pen would be the perfect fear-instilling tool if you’re at the top of the office food chain, whereas those on the lower end of the spectrum would probably be more relieved if you were half as funny as the Pull My Finger Fart Pen.

Here’s more juvenile humor for the masses that costs a mere $3.95 for plenty of laughs - the Pull My Finger Fart Pen. This writing instrument is pretty much self-explanatory, and it does look like a real digit, letting one rip whenever you give it a nice tug. I think this would be a hoot at the exam hall as stern invigilators go nuts wondering who had too many beans for breakfast that morning. It won’t give the game away that easily with multiple fart sounds, including both long and short ones. Heck you can even sign your John Hancock with this in blue if you want to.

Back in my day we used a pointy stick and jabbed our marshmallows on the end.  Only at one point have I used something actually purchased specifically to roast marshmallows with.  The rest of the time it was coat hangers and sticks.  Sanitary I know.  Well now you can have a battery operated one that makes it so you don’t even have to rotate the marshmallow.  Clearly this is for people that don’t just set the marshmallow on fire and then blow it out once it’s cooked on all sides.  That method is obviously only for those with true talent.  It takes skills to burn your marshmallow properly.  This extends up to 29” which will hopefully keep you from scalding your fingers off.  It will also work for hot dogs as well. You can purchase it for $10.

I’ve never really known anyone that has an obsession with ping pong.  Really, I’ve never known anyone that finds it so interesting they felt compelled to purchase the game.  Well if you do have a love for Table Tennis, then you can show your appreciation for the game directly in your kitchen.  Now you can own a set of Ping Pong Racket Salt and Pepper Shakers.  There isn’t a person out there that wouldn’t be able to not comment on the strange set.  You can pick them both up on Gadget Brando for $14.

I have no idea why, but I’ve always enjoyed lava lamps.  Even though I’m much to young to have been around when they first came out.  However, even with my appreciation for the lamps, I still think this is ridiculous.  It’s a lava lamp, purely to sit in your car.  It plugs into your cigarette lighter and then Velcros onto whatever surface you want it attached to.  It can cycle between three different colors, red, blue and green.  You can pick it up for $6.97 on Things You Never Knew Existed.  Well at least they had the courtesy to make it an affordable pointless product.

This quirky pen is likely meant for Doctor’s offices, especially considering it is being sold on the Advance Healthcare Shop.  However, it’s still a creepy pen, which features a fake thermometer.  I just hope no Doctor ever gets these confused and has to retake the patient’s temperature.  It would also be enough to creep out your coworkers in general, even if you don’t work for any sort of health care facility.  You can pick it up for cheap too.  It’ll cost you $1.79 and even cheaper if you buy them in bulk.  You can also have you logo or custom message placed on the pens.
