bathtub-ashtray

The idea of using a bathtub as an ashtray is not new news to the average smoker. But the addition of a cockroach who looks like he is about to get swatted makes it fun. Not exactly sure what this neo-Army hack is swatting it with, but he is obviously very serious about it.

flying-monkey-nut-cracker

Now you can control your very own Flying Monkey with no golden cap needed, although his only function will be to crack open some nuts. Luckily, you happen to have captured him in the midst of his kidnapping of Toto so you get a flying monkey that looks like he is on his way to a picnic. Not quite the same as the fearsome creature from the movie.

silver-zipper-shot-glasses

The purveyor of these shot glasses with painted zipper teeth and an actual zipper attached compare the half open/half closed zipper to the old half empty/half full adage. I think it equally applies to the decision on how many buttons the drinker of all these shots chooses to undo. The more shots that go down, the further the unbuttoning.

Egg and soldiers is a fine way to start your day, and this little set turns those soldiers into cavalry and the egg cup into a castle. It is difficult to tell if the castle turret egg holder is his home or his next conquest—you can decide that for yourself each and every morning.

airstream-tea-pot

In the world of trailers, the Airstream stands out as one of the best. So when you are looking to brew a pot of tea, whether you are in the top of the line airstream or a run down single wide, just fire up the burner under this Airstream teapot and let it heat up. Keep in mind that lighting a fire under a trailer is only good in case of this particular trailer, do not try it with the real thing.

happy_man_bottle_opener

Happy Man is very excited to open any bottle for you. You might think that smile would turn into a frown as you use his appendage to rip the cap off a bottle, but there is no change in expression at all. One caveat to keep women from being disillusioned: the happy man’s features are not to scale.

bagle dome

This battery-operated bagel dome keeps your baked goods fresher, longer by creating a vacuum seal at the push of a button. If you are so inclined, you could arm each bagel with one of those toothpick swords and pretend that they are battling it out in the Thunderdome. Two bagels will enter, only one will leave.

trophy-cutting-board

While the head from the animal you just took down in your hunting adventure is out being mounted you can use this game trophy shaped cutting board to slice up its freshly cooked meat. You may not be able to mount that tasty loin, but you can certainly admire it while it is being carved.
