The product page for the Aqua Bomb says it will “compliment your environment” and “add a little tranquility to any home or office”. Whew! That’s a relief. I just couldn’t own fish if they had to swim around a normal aquarium, it would put the kibosh on the munitions vibe I was trying to maintain around my pad. Plus I’d lose out on all the therapeutic benefits that only a goldfish filled MK-84 can offer. Thank you, Aqua Bomb!

Flushed prematurely, this goldfish grew to a tremendous size in water adjacent to a nuclear plant. Exposure to radiation also left it with the unique ability to change color when exposed to water. Unfortunately, like most goldfish he won’t live long—about 40 hours in this case, so use him wisely! Put him in the punch bowl or in the pool at a party, or let him hang out in the bath when you want to relax.

These hand-blown glass bombons are intended to hold everything from flowers to fish with bizarre designs that include an octopus, fish, dog and cat. The latter two are pictured after the break.
Sure the fish shape is a little weird, but it’s hard to argue with a keychain that also functions as a TV remote, bottle opener and flashlight for only $6.

You make your dog learn tricks, so you really need to get your fish to amuse you as well. Normally they are just left alone, but with this Fish School Training Kit you can have that little guy doing all sorts of fun tricks. Watching him play catch, football and basketball will do the trick for a while. But for maximum fun you really have to get him to limbo. There is nothing that would be more amusing than putting on some good old limbo music and watching him go as low as he can. While it will amuse you and your friends, I cannot say with any certainty how the fish feels about it.

It’s a good thing fish are stupid because I’m sure that they would not find the humor in a miniscule bowl designed to look like the planet Earth. And with that intense blue LED shining down on it every night, your fish will probably be begging for the merciful freedom of a porcelain grave.

If you are a little fearful of scuba diving to experience the colorful world of tropical fish, bring the fish to the scuba gear. This neat fish tank is designed after a scuba tank and comes complete with the coral you would want to dive around. It gives you the feeling of scuba without the fear that some large fish is going to be interested in what you taste like.

I think everyone knew the strange but pretty cool neighbor down the street. And this seems like just the kind of thing she would have owned. Pretty basic silverware, but with a slight fish design to it. Really a case where it is form over function, but the function doesn’t suffer. Why should you use plain old boring silverware when something like this is available.

I have seen a number of novelty ice trays out there for making oddly shaped ice cubes. But there is just something even odder about having Fishbone ice cubes floating in your drink. While the other shapes are mostly amusing, this one has a much more creepy feel to it, as if your drink is the poor guys’ last resting place. Which is exactly why I like it.

Your choice: Rainbow Trout or Big Mouth Bass. Either one of these pairs of slippers would like right at home on a pair of feet in their mountain cabin. Or you can be the odd relative that wears these to the grocery store. I think the old, weird relative angle is the better way to go, personally.
