This is a novel take on the idea of “literal packaging“…
These fruit juice cartons follow a similar, but slightly varied theme.
Amy mentioned that she’s a sucker for a well designed product package – so no doubt she’ll be ordering up big on fruit juice if these ever hit the shelves.
Barack Obama is apparently so popular he’d win elections in most countries around the world. Without even turning up. It can be tough at times to pay appropriate tribute to a man as influential and exciting as the current President of the United States (POTUS). How bout your very own herbal treatment for America’s first ever pot smoking president* – a Chia Obama. A few US retailers are now refusing to carry them instore. There are two varieties – happy and determined…
*at least the first to openly admit “inhaling”…
I’ve never really found myself nodding off at the desk but I’m sure it’s a dangerous occupational health and safety issue requiring novel solutions. Like these.
A pillow tie/sleeve combo from designer Maja Ganszyniec…
And for those narcoleptic office workers who just can’t type a sentence without nodding off – a pillow with a built in keyboard… From Russia with love (and Google Translate).
Lifehacker is often full of useful tips and tricks to make your life better. Their posts can be pretty random and eclectic – today there’s a scientific analysis of the preparation of boiled eggs with a link to a flash application developed by someone at the University of Oslo.
Here is the formula.
Here’s a picture of the flash app which does all your eggciting calculations for you- and a link to a translated version of the original page.
Useful.
Nice and easy test. Probably not failsafe or foolproof – but if you’re concerned… start here.
Having watched a few of these I can almost say I prefer seeing dunkers hurt themselves to seeing skateboarders hurting themselves. Almost.
Ahh, the magic of stone grilling… one of the best meals we had in New Zealand was a stone grill selection at a pub in Hanmer Springs. It was so good that I’d almost buy this. For 29 GBP.
Much to my wife’s horror I bought one of these Facebanks. It’s probably the worst product I’ve ever linked to – and it’s the only one I’ve bought. He now stares at me on my desk. Looking lonely, tacky and unloved.
He needs a friend. Perhaps a sneezing tissue box is just what the doctor ordered. A bargain at $US14.95.
Gordo linked to a post about how Stone Henge may have been built. It’s a fascinating piece of British architecture.
It’s impressive. The YouTube video may be interesting – I don’t know, I haven’t watched it yet. That’s irrelevant. What is relevant is this very exciting recreation of Stonehenge – with bacon.
That’s what I call impressive architecture.
Do you work in an office? Are you sick of going to get your daily caffeine fix from the dripulator and finding – or rather not finding – your mug. Your pride and joy – perhaps a Dilbert mug with an insightful commentary on office life… Usually it’s because a colleague has pinched it.
Well, with this bad boy the joke is on them. Or the contents of your mug will be if they’re not paying attention. And let’s face it, that’s probably why they pinched it to begin with…
If anatomically correct cakes aren’t your thing perhaps you’d prefer this wonderful quilt cover. It’s particularly useful if you’re studying medicine or some other silliness. Horizontal thinking was all the rage back when I was at uni – and this would make it semi legitimate.
What could be more fun than stabbing your sausages with a makeshift sword?
Stabbing your sausages with a makeshift sword while wearing a free mask… that’s what. And now, make that dream come true, this product doubles as a great prop for the next time you want to reenact Zorro in your backyard.
If you need some more help or guidance with your backyard culinary exploits or you’re more of a “cook by numbers” type – then take your barbecuing to the next point in the grid with this spreadsheet grill.
