We don’t do many posts on Tokidoki, the Japanese-inspired lifestyle brand created in 2005 by Italian artist Simone Legno. But, for his latest creation, we’ll make an exception because we’ll never get to buy it. This limited edition Japanese exclusive Tokidoki styled laptop is made by Fujitsu. It’s called the FMV Loox and it’s advertised as an eco-friendly computer, how ...

Finally, our T-Mobile contest has come to an end. Thanks to everyone for entering and big thanks to T-Mobile and SkinIt.com for providing us with some stuff to give away. After wading through all the comments you people left, we decided that Chelsea should get it because she actually has a Sidekick 2008 in hand to put it on. We’ll ...

For $25, you really can’t go wrong with this wristwatch from some bullshit company. It has a unique sliding face that reveals six bullet heads when moved. It also has what looks like Lieutenant markings and a black leather strap. Kick ass? Of course, but you’re no Tugg Speedman. Link (via)

Most people are clumsy others are just plain stupid. That’s why these $39 dollar Flower Fire Extinguishers exist. It’s for those wanna-be chefs out there that like to light oil and/or alcohol ablaze to explode the flavor of their creation but only ever ends in an explosion of fire in their face. They look like decorative flowers but, much like ...

What if the time traveling DeLorean broke down just as Marty McFly was about to reach 88 MPH? According to this $19 t-shirt design, he’d have to take the time traveling bus. Or he could settle for a hike through time on that hoverboard of his, though he wouldn’t get far. Link (via)
