As promised, here is the sequel to yesterday’s installment of Nerd Approved’s Stupidest Products of 2009. This section concludes the series with categories like Household, Booze, Things That Could Kill You, Alarm Clocks, Lego, USB, Toys and Micellany. Have a great new year!
Stress toys like this one fall in line with the Japanese “infinite toy” craze—trinkets that simulate a pleasurable experience over and over again. This can include bubble wrap, knuckle cracking and pop-top simulators. This particular pop-top simulator also features an inexplicable clucking chicken sound effect each time the can is “opened.”

One day these mice were roaming free, happily sifting through your garbage, spreading hantavirus and leaving their feces where you normally prepare dinner. The next thing you know their stuffed carcasses are in a butcher shop diorama standing on two legs, wearing blood stained aprons and serving some mystery meat to another stuffed mouse which happens to be wearing a dress and holding a purse. While you may think these guys ended up getting no respect in death, it’s still better than sitting in a pet shop waiting to be sold as snake food.
