Bloody Serial Killer Shower Curtain Brings Murderous Fun Into the Bathroom

Jack Loftus — Sun, 27 Jul 2008 16:00:00 EDT

There's actually a lot more to this bloody shower curtain Halloween decoration than meets the eye. There's the obvious stuff, of course, like the homage to Alfred Hitchcock classic Psycho. And the blood splatters and hand prints themselves say a lot about the owner. But beyond that, there's a little something extra in store for guests who need to drop off the candy corn in between Trick or Treats.

The subtle surprise is a woman's blood-curdling scream, which is accompanied by the music from Psycho. The ruckus starts up when someone enters the bathroom courtesy of an AA battery-powered motion sensor and a speaker. It's $20, which isn't too bad considering your guests will probably take a knife to it themselves after the gag gets old. [Things You Never Knew Existed via OhGizmo]

Bathroom Louie Helps you Drop a Deuce

Travis Hudson — Thu, 03 May 2007 14:40:11 EDT

Had enough of the pooping gadgets yet? Yeah, me neither. Bathroom Louie is a little guy who provides a bit of bowel encouragement. It is sound-activated. When bathroom Louie hears some bodily noises he will start making more repulsive noises of his own from every orifice followed by wiggling an a "Hal-le-lu-jah!" at the end. I'm not sure how a pooping toy would encourage my own bodily functions, but regardless, this device is wildly inappropriate in any bathroom. $21. –Travis Hudson

Rubik's Cube For the Lazy

Jason Chen — Thu, 15 Feb 2007 18:25:15 EST

If they've got Rubik's Cubes for the blind, why not one for the lazy? Speaking of lazy, whatever happened to those omnipresent moving walkways, auto-shavers, and sexy, sexy robots from The Jetsons? We thought the future was supposed to be so lazy-friendly, when it turns out we have to do even more work than before. – Jason Chen

RIAA Toilet Paper

Travis Hudson — Tue, 02 Jan 2007 16:45:40 EST

Oh-ho! Show that RIAA what you really think of their lawsuits with this RIAA-labeled toilet paper. Make sure every wipe contains the full RIAA letters, or you may be wiping that behind to spite to Irish Aviation Authority (IAA) and that can't be a good thing. Drunk Irishmen in planes is someone to not piss off. – Travis Hudson

Get the Full XBox 360 Experience

johnb — Sun, 13 Nov 2005 12:07:37 EST

Some blokes—that's British for guys—in Britain posted this full XBox 360 experience package, currently going for about $10. It's not a 360 per se, but it's actually these guys dressed up like aliens who will shoot you with paintballs to get the real-life thrills of Halo 2 (??)—"For another 50 quid Andys brother reckons we can blow up a tractor."— and then you can borrow one of their scooters to get the full MotoGP3 experience. We're assuming one will sing to you, as well, in order to recreate the whole "I can plug my iPod in for a custom soundtrack" experience.

Finger Nose Hair Trimmer

johnb — Thu, 21 Jul 2005 10:45:18 EDT

In all honestly, this is one of the worst manufactured nose hair trimmers on the market today. The actual nose hair trimming portion is under half an inch long, definitely not far enough to get those deep hairs near the Corpus Collosum. And the finger portion is proportionally wrong, not wide enough to allow access inside of the nostril for proper nose hair grooming. You would think a certified gag engineer would put more consideration into a gag that could be both practical and funny. This fails on all levels, but imagine all of the LOL this would create around the office email and AIM network. Go ahead. Forward it along. Be all like "Matt sure could use this! LOL!"
