Each coaster in this four-piece set features an exotic lady framed to look like a Polaroid shot. When you are done trying to impress your friends with girls you didn’t have sex with in the 60′s and 70′s, these coasters can be stuck on the fridge thanks to embedded magnets.

When you think of men cooking, you think of grilling. And for those who cannot afford to grill some fine steaks, a hamburger is always a reasonable replacement. Having this awesome coaster set to celebrate that is perfect accompaniment. The one downside is that every time you pick up your drink you will be reminded that good food is just a few minutes away. That may not be the best thing for your waistline.

The Lobotomy Coaster set gives you a reason to decorate with a skull. Each of the coasters has a skull and bone motif and fits comfortably in its resting spot in the skull itself. Other than placing it on a skeleton table you couldn’t get a product that offers much more in the way of dead body parts.

Unlike your average coaster set, when this one is not in use you don’t want them stored as inconspicuously as possible. Lay these out in your favorite track configuration and then smack the hands of those people that want to use them. Get a couple sets to make some more interesting designs. If they would make a functional set like this they would probably be sold out in a second.

Save your tables by letting these faux books take the punishment. Looking like realistic, antique books they will add class to what little your current living room has. When not in use it looks like it is just a nice book collection. It beats the hell out of all those cardboard ones you stole from the local bar.

You can’t walk anywhere these days without seeing someone with an iPod, so why should your house be any different? Slap a few clickwheel coasters (cup pads?) down and save your furniture. The white one is a little boring a this point, pony up a couple more bucks for the fluorescent orange model.

These seemed like stupid little coasters, until I saw the animation. Stand these guys up all over your house, anyone that needs a coaster just knocks it over. A lot easier than having an ugly stack of coasters that no one ever uses, although you will spend the rest of your life standing these guys back up.

The seller calls these retro coasters, I consider them coasters that lay it straight out. There is no misconstruing the intent with these, and maybe your less thoughtful guests will take the not so subtle hint.

You can advertise your love of horror movies by having these coasters around for your guests. You surely aren’t decorating a formal living room if this is what you are looking at. Not even a decent rec room. But they may be perfect for your little bedroom in your parents’ house.

You can make a coaster out of pretty much anything. These Airplane instrument Coasters are one more example, but one that seems a little more realistic and unusual. They look just like what you would see when you were flying a plane. At least in this case you wouldn’t need hundreds of hours of training to use them, though I still have friends that haven’t grasped the concept of using a coaster.
