The Voodoo Pen Holder is not quite as frightening as the Voodoo Knife Holder, but you may have a tough time convincing your HR rep that you have a good reason to keep a set of sharp knives in your cube. Even without the knives, this Voodoo holder should give anyone who is thinking about stealing a pen good reason to prey on someone other than you. Whether they are afraid of a possible Voodoo curse or the mental image of a pen through their head gives them the idea you get violent if your stuff gets stolen, it should push potential thieves to look elsewhere in their search for a proper victim. The holder comes complete with six pens and the stab wounds to hold them.

Hanging fuzzy dice in your car may be a completely dorky thing to do, but make that a pair of Rubik’s cubes instead of dice and you have some fine nerd style. Since these are permanently in a solved state, there is no way to prove that you don’t have the skills to perform such a feat. That makes these ideal for nerd posers as well.

If you can steer your gaze away from the Jay Leno tribute on top and the Moai murder investigation below, you’ll discover that Fred has released a silicone ice tray that will produce cube à la Easter Island to give your beverages a touch of South Pacific mystery, and of course, subject you to an endless barrage of “Dumb dumb, you give me gum gum” quotes.

Nothing looks more at home hanging on a wall than a paintbrush. Just remove the bristles and replace them with a notepad and you have the best memo pad in the office. That may not be much to brag about, but cube life does not leave much room for originality. You will probably have to ask others to lay off leaving so many memos just because they find it fun to rip them off paint brush.

These “Colorblock Note Cubes” have a few benefits over a similar looking cube that was developed by a Mr. Rubik. The colored blocks don’t spin so you don’t have to drive yourself nuts trying to solve it; it is useful as note paper for all those important notes you need to make, and you can see how many people who stop by your office actually try to spin the thing. It’s like a simple IQ test that way.

What you usually end up with at a cocktail party is a bunch of drinks that look alike. You can’t tell the difference between a gin and tonic or a vodka tonic without sticking your nose in it or taking a sip. To make everything a bit easier these combination drink stirrers and ice cubes will let you know at a glance which liquor is in that glass (until the ice melts, that is).
