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.

If any one of the people walking around the rim of this glass was paying attention and not chatting on their cell phone, they may realize that when this glass is being used they are all upside down.

Drinking done correctly is as much about the experience as it is the buzz. The Winestein and Bombs Away Shot Glasses are made for pure fun, one of the few times the alcohol will take a back seat to how they are served.

Not only is the glass a bit more manly, but it is also much easier to hold onto that mug handle than the delicate stem of a wine glass.The Bombs Away shot glasses pictured below are meant for one thing and one thing only: to down shot after shot while making shrill whistling noises like there is incoming artillery. Drinking out of these glasses is so much fun it may be one of the few times you can get those teetotallers to join you.

Putting some poor fish into this fish bowl would be like you sleeping in a bed shaped like a human. It is just one step away from those pictures you see of a person watching TV of a person watching TV ad infinitum. You can imagine the fright the little fish experiences as he is lowered into the fish’s mouth.

Beside being a cool glass head, they advertise this as a terrarium as well. All you need to do is to turn it on its side. However, you may feel that dropping almost a grand on a glass head only to put dirt in it is not the best use of your cash in this economy.
