The place for great unique gift ideas.
Ah cheese. Cheese and cows. The two go hand in hand. Well, one is made by the other, so why not give somebody a cow to cuddle with while eating delicious bacon cheddar cheese?
The cheese is spreadable, and a full pound of it comes in the cheese cup. I don’t have any cheese cups. I think if I had a cheese cup, it may not be a cheese cup for very long. It would turn into a cup pretty quickly. That’s because I’d eat the cheese, in case anybody missed that. Bacon makes it better!
I love the taste of homemade ice cream. It’s weird to me how differently it tastes than the store-bought stuff. I haven’t had it for years though because it always seems like such a chore to make. You have to find somebody who has one of those big old ice cream makers. Then you have to put all the time into getting the stuff set up just right.
Now there is a solution for people like me! Here’s all you do with the Play and Freeze Ice Cream Maker. Add ice and rock salt in one end, and add the ice cream ingredients in the other end. Roll it around for 15 minutes (good use of kids’ energy when they hear mention of ice cream) and presto, ice cream is served! If you’re like me, you don’t know what ice cream ingredients are. Apparently it’s as easy as cream, sugar, and vanilla. But no worries, a recipe list is included with each ice cream maker.
They come in a whole bunch of colors and 2 different sizes - pint and quart. There are also links on Amazon’s product site to order rock salt and other ingredients if you wish.
Man this thing gives me the creeps just looking at it. I can’t imagine what I’d do if I unexpectedly saw it crawling or, as the website describes its movement, scurrying directly toward me.
Remote control vehicles are always fun, and usually creepy isn’t a good word to describe them. But now there’s a big old remote control arachnid. The thing is 6.5″ in diameter, 2″ tall, and weighs a full pound! My sister does this thing where she crawls her hand on you and says “Heavy bug.” If you are in the right state of mind when she does it, it’s pretty wrong feeling. This heavy bug is close enough to the real deal to really scare the snot out of somebody.
Of course, that’s the sole purpose I see this serving, is completely scaring people out of their minds. Put it on sleeping bags, bed sheets, really anywhere on people when they’re in a vulnerable position for the most fun!
The things those kids are doing today, sheesh! These little cube stick figures have quite the little lives going on for themselves. The fellow in the blue box is Chief, and the one in the red box is Sparky. Chief is a policeman and Sparky is a fireman. Each stick figure goes about their own business and have some games you can play with them. I suppose that’s what the buttons on the front are for. One cool thing is that if you shake the cube, the little dude falls down, neat!
Now it gets much better. You can connect the two cubes and the two guys will interact with each other! As you can see there in the picture, they like to play pranks on one another. There are two other cube people you can get as well - Toner, a corporate desk jockey, and Dash, a delivery man. Apparently if you have all four connected, they will all interact with each other in a glorious meeting of stick figures. Crazy stuff.
Finally there’s something official looking to use for safely keeping leftovers in the work refrigerator. Ever since I was a kid, I’ve had fun marking food containers with different “labels” to dissuade people from stealing them. I was actually pretty bad about it, mostly just for fun though.
Some examples are putting Anthrax on a cup of sugar, writing Sample on the side of a cup with apple juice in it, and even as far as adding food coloring to milk! That last one really works well, trust me.
ThinkGeek has made these awesome food containers that have great labels on the side making any co-worker or roommate think twice about stealing your food. Better yet, the lids have a dial that allows you to set them to remind you how old the food is. When it comes time to heat them up, the dial can be turned to the vent setting, which obviously vents the food as it gets nuked.
These look pretty awesome. They’re push pin style magnets. Of course, you could use them on any surface that attracts to magnets, but really, the fridge is pretty much the only place most of us use magnets.
At first glance, I thought these things look cool, but probably aren’t very strong. Then I found their FAQ page that blew my doubts out of the water. They’re made of this stuff called Neodymium, which I guess can have crazy strong magnetism.
At that site I just linked to, you can order a “free” sample one, which actually costs a buck for shipping. You can also get more colors there than at ThinkGeek, which is where the other links in this post lead. The ones at ThinkGeek are cheaper though, since you don’t pick the colors. So, there are a couple options.
Wicked! Yes, a wicked mug. Probably the best drink to enjoy in the wicked mug would be witches brew. I’m not sure how one would make any witches brew though.
Give somebody a little color for the Halloween season at the office or home, wherever they like to curl their hands around a tasty mug of their favorite mug-type drink. The ceramic mug is pretty standard sized and decorated oh so cutely.
Smell like Britney, woo! Over at Scentiful.com they’ve got a whole slew of things to get so you ladies (or Chris Crocker) can smell like Britney. There’s perfume, body souffle, shimmer stick, shower gel, body polish, and much more. I really don’t even know what half of them are, but I’m sure they’re spectacular.
Yes, this is mostly a shameless poke at some popular keywords to see if I can get more traffic on this here site, but I’m sure it’s a quality product, and that plenty of girls would absolutely love to smell like Britney. So hey, why not?
Oo baby baby, oo baby baby! Push it real good! Bring that Salt ‘n Peppa song to somebody’s torso. The shirt conjures up great memories of lawn mowing. I haven’t done that in years, I only have rocks outside my place at the moment.
It only comes in grass green color, which shouldn’t need any explanation. The link below goes to the product page for the men’s sizes, but right at the top is a link to see women’s sizes as both sexes should be able to enjoy this wonderful shirt.
Speaking of that song, I feel that I must add this commercial to this post. I was actually discussing it the other day with some friends:
Like anything that grows something out of its head, these little things look pretty awesome. There are actually three, they come in a set. The third (unpictured) one is a white skull type head. That’s kind of redundant, using skull and head in the same sentence.
Anyway, these are ready to go, just add water. They are supposed to grow to full height within only a couple weeks. I got something similar to these last year for Christmas. Sadly, I waited months to start watering it. Apparently the seeds lost their growing power by then. I’m a pretty bad gift getter I suppose. Hopefully next time I’ll get on the ball a bit quicker.
