Scrunchers are no doubt less sophisticated and should be ostracised with much pointing and name calling. Folders are the superior breed. As demonstrated by this new line of toilet paper…

Glass bottomed kayak
Nothing gives you an appreciation of your impending consumption by a shark like a see through kayak. see through kayak.
Mirror, mirror on the wall…
…who is the tallest of them all?
I am posting a lot of rubbish today – and am thoroughly enjoying the “press this” WordPress link. It makes posting even quicker…
Of plastic cups, and stools and things
These things are a multipurpose stool/storage thing. Shaped like a cup. But that’s obvious. Just by looking at them. They’re also ridiculously overpriced – at 66.50 GBP.
These are a variation on the theme – and much cheaper – plastic cup inspired coffee and espresso cups.
Cherry Chomper: Chomps cherries
And who knew that Cherry pitting was such a modern culinary dilemma? Not me. But thankfully Cherry Chomper is here.
Turns out it’s a real problem. Or so the retailer would have you believe
“Cherry chomper provides a safe, quick and clean way to pit cherries.”
“A fun tool for kids in the kitchen and a big help for those who suffer from arthritis.”
Yours for just $US14.98. If you dare..
Knives out…
Fancy yourself as the King Arthur of the kitchen – then these wall hooks from A+R will help solidify that claim – they should be a breeze to pull out too.
I want to clean these cups…
Not since the scene with the cleaner with a crockery fetish in Black Books have I been so freaked out by a cup. And yet, I would buy one. Or a set. From here… here’s where I found them…
Dead pixel society
Did you know: A square 82cm by 82cm will occupy one pixel on google earth at an altitude of 1km.
This square was produced by artist Helmut Smits.
I like. Found here.
That is all.

(Vege)table tennis
This is quite bizarre. I had never been to Design Bloom prior to little sister number two’s recommendation last week – and now I’m posting another link to it.
Where has this site been all my life?
Merging two types of tables is nothing new – KMart has been selling an all-in-one air hockey/pool table/table soccer table for years.
But this is so classy. Table Tennis meets the dining room.
Fat chance
Morbidly obese pregnant women ‘commonplace’
Does this mean it’s ok to ask a large lady if she’s pregnant now?
Really though, this is another one of those irresistible headlines from the SMH.
Particularly when coupled with this picture:
Insert “your mum’s so fat” joke here.
This article really poses more questions than answers… but lets not go there. This is mostly a family friendly blog. Perhaps no more.
That is all.
Nice rug
This is part of a collection of very expensive novelty rugs from Dan Golden. I like it because it’s making fun of bad doctrine.
That is all. For now.
Hanky panky
Economic times are tough. There are people hurting. Here’s a hanky that will help you empathise as you comfort those around you… it tracks the movement of the Dow Jones index over the past five years.
It’ll cost you an exorbitant $US28 – and comes from Design Glut – who says you can’t make money off the recession.
