Blog 25 3/19/12

Hola homies! Thanks for stopping by!

In preparation of switching topics, go here:

http://www.thinkgeek.com/

Pick a product and tell me why you dig it, or conversely tell me why you think it's the stupidest thing ever. Post the link to the product so the rest of us can go look at it and make fun of it with you.

Talk to me . . .

I chose the shirt that says "It's quite simple actually: There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't. Duh." because the first time I read that shirt my mind was blown. I'm laughing at all the people who don't get this right now! =P

I like the scrolling LED belt buckle just because I use to have one a long time ago and you can actually put anything in it.

I chose the electronic firefly in a jar (pg 1) because i have seen it in person. Real jar, fake firefly...
At some point the little firfly just looks like a dead bug stuck in an empty jar.
The little bug taps around on the glass and sounds like bugs hitting a windshield, kinda more annoying than cute or relaxing.

An inflatable tentacle arm...pretty much the most stupid thing I have seen. At least in my opinion. Sorry, but what is this used for? You wouldn't be able to do anything with it like pick things up or use it like you would use a hand...

I really like the bluetooth keyboard case for the iPad. A case is good to have anyway and I don't like typing on the iPad for very long because it's at a weird angle and I wish there were keys. This case solves both issues. (They also have a sliding one for the iPhone)

I picked this, because I have never heard of gum that "kicks your brain's butt into gear" I personally LOOOOVVVVEEEE gum, and I would like to try it out to see if it works for me, even though there are a lot of other products put into making this gum.I really hope it doesnt kill anyone

iStuck Bubble Gum Phone Stand

I chose this product basically because I don't see the point in it. I personally don't want people to think that I am using bubble gum to hold up my iPhone. I don't want real gum on my phone let alone a fake immitation of the real thing. If I want my phone to stand up, I'll let it lean up against the wall.

My thinkgeek item is the Garden Zombie. Its not just for Holloween, but it can be used for everyday purposes; like scaring little old ladys from coming into your lawn to ask you for a cup of sugar. Its a really smart idea. I would also use it for safty. If someone wants to break into your house and right before they starty they see the sombie their either going to have an accident in thier pants or they're going to run away (or both ;))

Air Swimmers Flying R/C Sea Life

This is basically a refillable balloon, which I think is kinda retarded. The only difference really is that its remote contolled and stays filled for weeks.

I have always loved classic photography. For some reason digital cameras just cannot seem to capture an image like traditional film and while I own several antique cameras, I would buy this so would not be too worried about breaking it.

The air swimmers flying R/C sea life is like not the brightest object around. In my opinion, i think its stupid because i read that some people watched the videos and they were really freaked out by it and it scared their "pants" off, its just like a blow-up sea creature that pops up, with helium in it, floating through air, that stays up for weeks its stupid to me. You're just mainly getting pranked because the person that is pranking you has control over where they want to move "the helium blow up sea creature" its stupid(:

Electronic Goldfish in a Bowl

I think this is a good idea because it gives the people with not much time on their hands a chance to have a pet. It doesn't need to be fed so you won't have to forget about feeding him. He swims like a real fish and he looks like one too :D yay! It gives everyone a chance to have a pet.

ELECTRONIC GOLD FISH!
yes that is a great idea! i could never kill it! so when i dont feed it for a week, i wont feel bad! and you could name it like a fish and it would do everything a normal fish would do except for make waste products so i wouldnt ever have to clean it! i dont really like fish though, they dont do much. but maybe i would like this one?

I love Bawls. This energy drink was the very first one I was introduced to. At Quakecon in Dallas.
Not only does the blue, original, have a nice flavor but when you drop a Penguin Mint into one....WHOOSH! It's a big bubbly spew of energy wonder that's going to draw the eye of all those in the audience sitting within ten feet of you.

I realy like the electro goldfish in a bowl. Who needs a real fish that you have to feed and take care of when you can get a low maintenence machine? no food, no time, and no clean-up necessary. I could deffinately see this idea of mechanifying pets as a popular trend of the future.

This is the Schrödinger's Cat Executive Decision Maker. Basically, it plays off of Schrodinger's weird cat theory that says that when a cat is in a box with a bottle of poison, it can either be alive or dead; therefore is it both alive and dead at the same time. Obviously this doesn't make sense. Supposedly, it's supposed to be some kind of scientific metaphor, but nobody really understands it.
So anyway, the box works kind of like a Magic 8 Ball. You ask it a question and then open the box to see if the cat is alive or dead. It can only answer questions with two answer choices. It's a pretty original, nerdy, and fun alternative to the 8 Ball, but I wouldn't buy it. I mean, I could either buy this for $24.99 plus shipping and handling, or I could flip a penny. Come on, now.
