My Chorks Idea — Ripped Off!

18-Sep-06

Thanks to Dave T. for passing along the shocking, shocking news regarding the existence of the Finger Forks. These contraptions, which were recently featured on BoingBoing, are clearly a shameless rip-off of my ingenious Chorks concept:

Two words: prior art! I am so calling my patent lawyer…

World Cup Ambush Marketing, Thai-Style

29-May-06

I recently purchased these potato chips at Bangkok’s Big C. (Big C is a Thai hypermarket, sort of like Wal-Mart but with an open-air meat section. Thailand has several hypermarkets, such as French-based Carrefour and Tesco Lotus, a UK/Thai joint venture.)
Anyway, I saw these chips and I thought, in this order:

There is so much to analyze on this box of Korean condoms that I don’t even know where to start. The copy on the box reads:
Keep it real. Keep on faith. Keep on going. Piece! Stay real! WE are all brack people.

Unintentionally Hilarious Holiday Costumes

02-Dec-05

Reader Katie C. sends along a link to this “shalom dog costume” available at (oddly enough) SantaSuits.com, which features a line of costumes for pooches.
The site contains lots of weird stuff, including an extensive selection of biblical character costumes. Perhaps my favorite is the deluxe Jesus costume (scroll down).
But the tackiness doesn’t stop there! […]

Jones Soda, the Seattle company that scored a hit during the last two holiday […]

Looking for a New Loveseat?

12-Nov-05

Then perhaps you’d be interested in these first class airplane seats. They’d look cool in your livingroom, perhaps, but at 1500 bones, the comfort-to-price ratio might be a bit skewed (which is not unlike actually flying in first class, if you ask me).
