These heat changing arcade mugs could be a lot like you in the morning: blank, dull, inanimate objects. However, fill them with coffee and they bring Space Invaders and Pac Man screens to life with ghosts, aliens and lines of Pac Man breakfast dots. You can watch a short clip with a $1 budget after the break.

Yeah, you can control the temperature of waterbeds too—but the ’70s were a long time ago my friends. Surprisingly, it took this long for someone to develop a practical mattress with temperature control. If you are into the cool side of the pillow, that’s no problem since the mattress has a low temp of 48 degrees Fahrenheit. If you are perpetually chilly at night, crank that thing up to a max of 118 degrees.
Move your Simpsons and Star Wars figures, to the side. You need a little space to show your Google allegiance with all 12 Android toys. Though not equipped with Kung Fu grip, the Androids do have movable heads and arms, and isn’t that the next best thing?
Show how much you are over your ex by dissing him/her with a certificate of virginity that says “It was so bad, it didn’t even happen”. Your rock solid certificated virginity will also help you mentally erase a one night stand, wear white at your wedding or empower you to trade in this for one of these. However, if you plan on using your virginity diploma as a pick up device to finally land a woman you can bring home to Mom, your chronic crotch scratching will identify you as a liar right off the bat.

Now that the days of the Space Shuttle are pretty much over, all those old Space shuttles have to find a new job. In better times there may have been some excellent opportunities out there, but the best it can scrape up today is a job as a piece bedroom furniture. For all the years it spent transporting millions of dollars of equipment in its payload bay it is now relegated to carrying your graphic novels, skin mags and comic books. A humbling change for the once proud Shuttle.

For anyone who has ever shoved their bare hands into a trash can to make some extra space, the smush can self-powered trash compactor is an idea that’s long overdue. This can has a handle in its lid that allows you to compact the trash while keeping your hands away from the filth. But if you’re willing to spend $139 for that feature it’s probably safe to say that you deal with poop on a daily basis.

Did your kid come home with an “F” on an important test? Tack it up on the fridge with the magnet set to “off” as a reminder to work harder. Got a picture of you that looks halfway decent? Tack it up there with the “on” setting.

If you don’t own your house outright, a house and an apartment can appear pretty much the same: you spend a small fortune every month that allows you to keep living there, and if you stop the flow of cash for any reason, you’re out on your ass. Chances are both will offer the same lack of privacy as well, especially since they’ve decided to build newer subdivisions with a cool 6 feet of space between you and your neighbor. It seems the most significant difference is that living in an apartment allows you to use this snazzy rug. Makes the apartment more appealing, doesn’t it? An additional design is pictured after the break.
