The place for great unique gift ideas.
Tired of the same old little Valentine’s Day chalky hearts? Well these are the same antacid type of treat, but they have much different messages on them than the usual.
The three tins to choose from are Dejected, Dysfunctional, and Dumped. This picture gives a little peek at what to expect from these. Clicking through will give you the entire list of every inscription on these hearts. Have some fun giving out downer hearts this year!
This is pretty cool. ThinkGeek has a pair of t-shirts that will light up with hearts when you are near your loved one. So here’s what you do. Get two of these shirts, one for you and one for your significant other, and then when you’re apart, you’ll each have only 2½ hearts lit up, but when you’re near each other, all 6 hearts will light up. Pretty neat huh?
See the idea is, if you haven’t got it, to make it seem as though each of the t-shirt wearers are in a video game. In games, like Zelda, you want your hearts to be full, that means you’re strong and have perfect health. When they start to diminish, things aren’t looking so hot. So when you’re with your lover, things are looking good.
Of course, there are some things to do to get it set up right, like plug in a little transmitter that detects when the other person is nearby, but it’s totally worth it! You could both wear these shirts to a Valentine’s Day party or any other social event where you want to woo people with your love for each other. Could be a good time for everybody!
Here’s a weird and kind of creepy Valentine’s Day gift idea. It’s a chocolate replica of a human heart that weighs an entire pound! That picture makes it look even more creepy than it probably is I’m guessing.
This might be a good gift idea for a medical student or professional I’d imagine. I think some people would really get a kick out of it while others might kick you if you gave it to them for Valentine’s Day. Either way, this is one of the most original ideas I’ve seen. It would be awesome if it was filled with some raspberry sauce or something that made it look like it was bleeding when it got bitten into. Ew!
This must be how dirty girls like to get cleaned, in a bubble bath. I like the product description:
A Lily-fresh fragrance turns even the dirtiest girl into a specimen of beauty! Tub tested!
So that’s all you really need to know!
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.
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:
I usually just have one picture per post, I kind of think it looks good that way. This particular item deserves three full sized pictures. It’s just so awesome. It’s actually a line of squishy spiked things. They are balls that can be turned inside out. One way has the spikes on the inside, the other way has them on the outside. There are also some big squishy eyeball things as well as spiky gloves. It’s almost too much fun.
Here we have one that looks like I may look here in a few years, I love it!
A boy kindly demonstrates the stretchy quality of the spiky ball.
And finally, here you can see a wide assortment of all available squishy things. There are varieties of colors and styles to choose from. I love how that one kid has the thing stretched out over his entire bike helmet!
These are just so awesome. I love the squishy things and so do most kids.
I get the feeling we’ll be seeing plenty more of this BlueQ stuff. It’s hilarious! This time around we’ve got the Make Yourself at Home magnet set. It has five individual magnets with the classic American Mother character.
The sayings on each magnet are great. One says If you want breakfast in bed, sleep in the kitchen. The one that cracked me up is I child-proofed my house but they still get in.
I love a good kitchen magnet, and these are some very fine ones. They’re a great gift idea for any housewife out there. I’d even be happy to get these and I’m a bachelor.
I don’t know if it’s just me, but I think most of us have a whole bunch of change sitting somewhere. I’ve got some in a couple Styrofoam bowls and in the console in my truck. Mostly, it doesn’t get used until I decide to go cash it in for whatever amount it’s worth. So hey, why not have a tin for all that stuff? And better yet, why not have a tin with a good cause, like savin’ up for Jesus!
The simplicity of this tin is wonderful. It’s 3½” wide by 4½” tall, so it can hold plenty of coins without being too cumbersome. I love the little additional text in front of the good reverend, who happens to have one of the nicest cared-for afros I’ve ever seen. “Give yourself a faith lift.” Punny!
These things look pretty awesome in action. There’s nothing quite like the sight of a little hunk of real wood sticking out of the back or side of a computer. Each one of these USB flash memory sticks is a one of a kind real piece of wood.
It’s a great mix of technology with back woods style. Passers by may think that someone walked by with a stick and crammed it into the side of your laptop. They have 1 gigabyte of storage, so they’re decent sized drives. Just enough to transfer those work documents and maybe a few songs between the home and office.
I’m not sure if these come with a cap for the USB connector. Either way, if they do or not, the recipient of this one-of-a-kind gift idea may want to be careful about leaving this lying around where trash may be picked up. There is an extension USB cord that can be purchased at the site at well. Imagine how crazy someone would look with a cord leading from their computer to a little stick. I love it!
