You want a labor saving device? Then how about a watering can that you can leave out in the yard. It’s log shape will look right at home with all the other yard waste that you haven’t quite found the time to clean up yet. In fact, it may look nicer than most of the other landscaping you have. For some reason plant care has a tendency to bring out some very odd products.

Unless you are unemployed and loving life, this mug will speak to you. Whether it is school or that same old crappy job, Monday is an awful day. To think that 1/7 of your life consists of Mondays is a pretty sad thought. The mug comes packaged in a nice tin that makes for a perfect office gift.

USB Pole Dancer Redux: This Time The Focus is On Productivity

If you are familiar with the original USB pole dancer, you may rememember that early on it was yanked from store shelves because it was deemed disrespectful to women. While that may be true, it doesn’t mean that other companies are not trying to capitalize on the idea. In order to circumvent previous problems, the manufacturers of the version pictured above made two key upgrades.
First, the pole dancer has taken on a more stylized, cartoonish like appearance which I’m assuming makes it seem less controversial. Plus, they have added a productivity feature that could make it more acceptable in the workplace. The pole dancer performs as you type and it includes software that features a daily word count, your top five typing performances and a WPM testing function. So, you can always make the excuse that your tiny private dancer is actually helping you perform your job more efficiently.

Your friends will think you have gone a little wiener dog crazy when they see you with this combination. The 3D dachshund mug is unusual in itself, but the dachshund creamer takes the cake. With his tail as the handle, I have to assume the cream will come out his mouth. Isn’t that a pleasant thought for what you are about to ingest?

I can’t think of a better way to relieve some stress than to hack a few limbs off this Black Knight doll based on Monty Python’s “Holy Grail”. To give you some feedback the doll will spout off some of the famous lines from the movie, such as “Tis nothing but a scratch!”. Just annoying enough to further enrage you. All of your fellow cubemates will know just how stressed you are by how many times they hear this guy talk every day.

Hiking Boot Birdhouse

This birdhouse will add some class to your backyard. Rather than some modern formed metal bird feeder you can hang a boot on a pole. And since birds don’t know the difference they will be more than happy to eat out of your shoe. If you aren’t sure whether this is quite classy enough for you then the sock hanging out the top of the boot should lay that worry to rest.
