Why?

Don’t you just hate a Coke that is flat? Well, for those who want to ensure that one’s beverage remains fresh even after being opened (reasonably speaking within a few days, of course, as to keep an opened beverage fresh for a year demands a divine miracle), a bottle stopper would definitely come in handy. However, if you are one who always goes against the grain, then the $7.49 Pickled Bottle Stopper might just do the trick for you, eliciting laughs and amused looks as well from your friends who open your fridge and discover this delightful silicone accessory.

The horn of the unicorn is said to contain magical properties, and it is considered a crime in magical folklore to murder unicorns. Fast forward to today where unicorns and the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow are one and the same, we have a far more practical use for a unicorn horn other than to grind it into fine powder and use it as an aphrodisiac. Instead, the $7.95 Unicorn Corn Holders does as it says, holding up a corn so that your hands are free to sample the other gastronomic delights laid out in front of you on the dining table. Each purchase will come with 4 pairs of unicorns, meaning you have 2 to hold each cob.

Fancy dress parties are definitely a social event that is worth going to, and if you want to be slightly different from the myriad of pirates, superheroes and cosplayers at the next fancy dress party, perhaps you might want to look into purchasing the $24.95 Squirrel Mask. Of course, it is not going to make you look like a squirrel all over since there is still the issue of a human body to deal with, but at least it is a start. Of course, those who are allergic to nuts can still wear this mask, but just don’t eat any peanuts offered to you even from your friends.

You know how it goes – do not walk under a ladder, don’t let a black cat cross your path – the list goes on, and there are many taboos to follow if one does not want to fall under the spell of bad luck. Here is a new idea – how about a spray that is capable of removing jinx? The $7.49 Jinx Removing Spray will come into play then, where this fragrant yet musky potion is said to have been magically formulated so that it can remove jinxes, nullify hexes, as well as dispel curses. After all, you can never quite tell just when you are about to strike it rich with the lottery, so buying this by the case does sound feasible, no? No idea on why you need the instructional booklet though.

Not everyone appreciates farting jokes as well as fart pranks, but for the minority who do, here is the $19.95 Butt Putt Golf – Farting Practice Putter that might not do your game of golf any improvement since it will induce more laughs than a serious effort. On the other hand, it could help build up your concentration levels, as something so weird and funny which is supposed to induce laughter still leaves you with a poker face. Each time you sink a shot, one of half a dozen different farts will sound – minus the smell, thankfully. You’ve got to provide your own balls and batteries though.

We all know that going to the fish market means only one thing – yes, you will enjoy a delectable dinner of fresh salmon later in the evening, but coming back from the fish market would result in you smelling fishy all day long – and not everyone is able to stand that particular olfactory offense. Having said that, a severed fish head is also perfect to gross folks out, and here is one prank toy that will definitely cement your position as the resident joker at the office – the $4.50 Fish Head Sucker. It looks so real, even birds might be fooled – those with a poor sense of smell, that is.

Who would have thought that scientists would one day manage to cobble together electronics as well as biology into a single device/organism? Well, what you see here could be the future, but we assure you that it is all electronics at this point in time. The $8.95 USB Pickle Light could prove to be one of the more bizarre desktop items you will ever have, where you light up the surrounding environment using a soft LED light of a glowing green pickle. Perfect for those who tend to work late into the night, it even comes with a flexible 17″ long shaft to let you point the pickle in any direction of your choice. Plug in and you are good to go!

Matryoshka nesting dolls might be fun when you are a kid, as there is the endless fascination of seeing one doll holed up within the bigger one (pun not intended) – but after a while (and lots of growing up in between), you start to realize that it really ain’t all that hot to play with, moving on to bigger and more interactive toys. Well, since we are now in a generation who is more ready for a zombie apocalypse compared to say, handling a blackout for a couple of days, here are the $13.99 Matryoshka Zombie Nesting Dolls that comprise of half a dozen dolls, fitting together as one big, happy zombie family.The baby stands at a mere 30mm, while the severed foot zombie stands proud at 114mm in height.

You know how the Swiss are supposed to be extremely precise? Well, just take a look at the number of watches that hail from that neutral country, and you will know what I mean. Of course, they had the meanest male tennis player of recent times who is losing his swagger on court, and neither is Switzerland a guaranteed safe haven for those who have assets that they do not want anyone else to know about, but surely those two points do not detract from the nation’s obsession with accuracy? Enter the $9.95 Swiss Measuring Spoons that should help you be a better cook in the kitchen – since it offers accurate readings on the amount of ingredients that you need to put into your dish. Made out of food-grade ABS plastic, it boasts ¼ teaspoon, ½ teaspoon, 1 teaspoon, 1 tablespoon and is food and dishwasher safe.
