tulip-corkscrew

Flowers are useful things to have around, to get you out of the doghouse with the wife/girlfriend if nothing else. But beyond looking and smelling pretty, those are pretty useless. With its ability to open a bottle of wine, the Tulip Corkscrew is immensely useful. Plus, with its included flower pot you can leave it out like any other decorative plant you may have. The four leaves of this corkscrew make it useful for both righties and lefties.

freudian-finery

Freud would have a field day with the manner in which some people will want to dress this magnetic copy of himself. I am sure he would understand you putting a suit and hat on him, he may not take so kindly to the leathers and mohawk. Your fridge, your choice. Much more fun than your average set of magnetic poetry on the refrigerator.

That kid will have no reason to believe there is no Santa when he finds all this stuff left behind: glasses, a torn piece of red suit, a large coat button, a boot prints, a sleigh bell on a red ribbon, a toy list, reindeer hoof prints and Santa’s glove.

motorcycle grip bottle opener

This motorcycle grip makes a revving sound every time you pop open a beer. You’ll get a lot of good years out of this motorcycle, but remember that it is dangerous. You’ll probably fall a few times, and once the liver goes it’s time to trade her in.

banana-hands-free

If you are looking for an inconspicuous bluetooth device for your phone, this is not it. But if you are looking for a piece of fruit that is able to be used as a handset for your bluetooth phone then you have come to exactly the right place. A peach or a cluster of grapes just could not have the same effectiveness as this banana handset. You’d look just plain silly holding a peach up to your ear.
