You spend half of your weekend nights bent over a toilet after indulging just a bit too much, so you will recognize this desk organizer guy’s pain.

If you are trying to figure out a way to add more “pop” to your presentation, I think this is your answer. It may take the recipient a few seconds to place the odd shapes, but you know there will be a little chuckle when they do. Keep in mind that you have to know your audience. If the recipient has no sense of humor and is a bit of a prude, you might want to consider a paper clip that is a little less risque.

It’s hard not to stare, but these desktop goblins are actually quite sensitive about their freakishly large heads. It’s best to just quietly stick your paperclips and coins in their mouth and not eyeball them. An additional version is pictured after the break with a monkey is thrown in for good measure.
