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!
Did you watch It’s Alway’s Sunny In Philadelphia yesterday? If so, you may have noticed the gang’s unique ideas for merchandising Paddy’s Pub. Well, maybe the “shot” gun wasn’t all that original, but the Dick Towel…good friggin’ Lord, the Dick Towel was hilarious. Not surprisingly, I found out you can actually dry off with this perverted piece of Americana for only $20! Still not convinced that you absolutely need this? Check out the hilarious video after the break (NSFW).
Here are the top ten Nerd Approved Gadgets for the week of September 7th-13th, 2009:
Thumb Sumo: Thumb wars go Sumo.
Shotgun Drink Dispenser: Nothing goes together like liquor and guns.
Stress Relieving Pop Can Toy with Chickens Cluck: Nothing relieves stress like opening up a pop-top can of live chicken.
Walking Light Bulb: This light bulb’s boots are made for walking.
Spider Whack Ping Pong: The itsy bitsy spider runs into a big problem.
This product may not be available just yet, but I have to agree with the seller’s web site; once a pump shotgun drink dispenser is available they are going to go quickly. Just load up the bottle with the drink of your choice and pump that shotgun. Each pump will shoot out a 25 ml shot for your friends to enjoy. Nothing goes together like liquor and guns.

Here are the top ten Nerd Approved Gadgets for the week of August 24th-30th, 2009:
Character Bags: Like origami for shopping bags.
Div Pro Tool: For smoking cigars and shotgunning beers on the golf course.
Ghostly Pirate Ship Shade: A scary night light.
ElectraPour: Illuminates your liquor.
Diablo The Satanic Chicken: Who would dare eat a satanic chicken?
Pray you never play golf behind a foursome making use of the Div Pro. Like other golf tools, it can fix divots, mark balls, clean the grooves on clubs and help to keep your grips in good shape—but it also has a couple unexpected features. It can hold cigars and puncture cans so you can shotgun beers.
Picture the guys in front of you laughing, smoking, drunk off their ass and hacking their way around the golf course. Will they let you play through? Of course not. You confront them, they don’t appreciate it, and the next thing you know you are teeing off on one of their faces with your driver. It happens all the time. Additional images are available after the break.
It’s outrageously expensive, but your $900 investment will buy you what the manufacturer considers to be “the most accurate replica ever produced.” Yeah, they lost me at $900. Still, this M14A was meticulously crafted using an existing Pulse Rifle from the movie as a model. It also features a moving grenade launcher pump, retractable stock and a light up LED counter that displays “95″ when the magazine is inserted. Apparently, only 250 pieces were produced worldwide—precisely the amount of people on this planet willing to spend this much money on an elaborate toy gun. So get it while you can. Additional images are available after the break.
Here are the top ten Nerd Approved Gadgets for the week of March 30th-April 5, 2009:
Animal Doorbells: Doorbells featuring animals from the land, sea and air.
Spotted: Spontaneous combustion armchair.
Don’t Drop The Soap Game: All the action and adventure of prison in a board game.
Products That Should Exist: The Pool-a-Potty.
Astronaut Rocket Pen: Blast off to a height of 36″.
Just about every cooking appliance you can find in a kitchen these days has been modified to plug into a cigarette lighter for portability. Of these cooking gadgets, this crock pot has to be one of the most amusing. It says “yeah, I want to be able to make food while driving, but I’m willing to wait to let the flavors really sink in.” Now that takes dedication.

Now this shotgun shell may not actually be live ammo, but no one else knows that. As long as you are putting with the plastic end as you would normally then no one will care. But start putting with the blasting cap end and you may get some very scared looks in your foursome.
