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.

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).

The Death Chill ice cubes are one of the best ways to serve a refreshing cocktail. The ice cube is shaped like a human skull and the attached swizzle stick is a spine. Every time you use the swizzle stick to stir the drink a little you will also be cooling the drink down a bit more by swishing around the ice cube as well. Using these is a simple way to find out which of your neighbors has a good sense of humor the next time it is your turn to host a boring cocktail party.

If you want to liven up that little get-together of yours, then you should probably serve all your guests a drink with a floating shark fin ice cube. The thought that there are little tiny sharks in the glass will make each sip an adventure. The bite marks on the tray are a nice touch. A picture of the cubes in action after the break.
Drinking a glass of whiskey is not great for your health, but it would certainly be a lot more fun if it had some nice bullet ice cubes in it. Load up the AK-47 clip with water, let it freeze and you have yourself the coolest ice cubes around, no pun intended. And other than acting all stupid after a number of drinks, like a typical Friday night, these things will cause you no harm at all.
