    I gotta agree on the cheeseburger, but the love doll pretty much says you need to die, post-haste.

    I have the liquor sandals... but they're full of sand inside...


    they also have bottle openers on the bottom... but ... why would you want to open a beer with your sandals that are covered in cat poop?

    I think the booze flipflops say, "i'm too much of a lightweight fraidycat to sneak in a plastic traveller and too much of a cheapskate to pay $5 for a well drink, so i'll settle for liquor warmed by my foot."

    A cheeseburger in a can counts as a "gadget"? Hmmm... what about the Dinty Moore stew in my cabinet?

    But that watch and my crappy poetry that I keep in a journal under my bed, are the only thing that are "real"! And cutting is the only way I can "feel" anything.

    @thePrototype: When I was at the "Adult Store" the other day I jokingly picked one up. The guy at the counter said that most of the people buying them are truckers, construction workers, and priests.


    I wasn't saying that's the only people that use them... Just that they do.

    I own the glowing testicles, but they're not a gadget. They are my only means to reproduce. So please do not make "light" of this, Giz, lest I become offended.

    @Lite: thinks Scotty doesn't know.: What I do, which may seem extreme, is fill out all my info/paperwork, and take a photo of all of that and a filled out envelope. I email that photo to myself to get a dated thing. I then go down to the Post Office, and have them print up postage for the envelope. When they do that, the receipt usually lists the zip code it's getting mailed to, so you have proof you mailed a letter on a certain day to that zip. Never had a problem yet.

    @IcemanD: I find it kinda interesting that it's apparently totally cool for women to own dildos and vibrators but it's somehow low class or perverted for a man to own a similar product.

    This article makes me feel refreshingly normal. I urge you to stop.


    Anyway, regarding the glittery wtf iPhone case, there's nothing wrong with simply saying "androgynous asshole" to sum it up.

    @Dragonis:
    The write-up on that is a bit misleading. Typically, sword-pistols were cop-out solutions for people who weren't all that skilled with a blade. Get challenged to a duel, kill the guy _technically_ with your sword, and hope noone protests before you can reload. They didn't really have the structural integrity to handle a prolonged swordfighting career.
