    Giant iPhone Display Runs OS X (This Time, At Least)

    Eagle-eyed reader Phelipe Hamoui snapped these shots of the giant iPhone display in Hong Kong running Mac OS X. This marks a nice change from that embarrassing little slip-up that revealed a U.S. display was running (gasp upon gasp!) Windows XP. So take a deep breath, Mac Army. Everything's gonna be okay. [- Thanks, Phelipe!]

    Miele's New Giant Fridge Can Double as a Morgue

    I don't know if these fridges are the norm in the US, but it seems to me like Miele's latest giganormous fridge from their Master Cool line—shown here at IFA 2008—has to be the biggest fridge ever available to megalomaniac consumers and potential serial killers. They should christen it The Walk-In Fridge, because this thing is so big that you can fit a cow inside. So huge in fact that I won't be able to put it in my apartment's living room. Actually, I think can put my entire living room and bedroom inside during the summer months. [More IFA 2008 Coverage]

    Awesome Adults Build Giant Indoor Slide For Kids

    A part of the American Dream is to be able to retire comfortably in your favorite area, say on a lake, with a large home. But not everyone dreams the same, some people love giant slides, and this family went a little nuts and installed one inside their house for the kids. Not for the adults, mind you, the kids. It's 30 inches in diameter and totals 30 feet long, all indoors. It's built to wrap around the used parts of the house so you'd never notice. I want a water slide like this. This is so cool it makes me resent my parents even more for never doing anything remotely this cool, ever. [The Craig Caboodle]

    10 Gadgets Fit For the Incredible Hulk

    With the new movie on its way to theaters, this seemed like the perfect time to talk about some seriously Hulk-sized gadgets. Or, more specifically, everyday items that have been bigified way past the point of absurdity. I can almost hear the entire state of Texas flipping out. More »

    Giant Universal Remote, for the Sausage-Fingered

    If, like me, you have the condition known as sausage finger, then you'll know the pain of punching more than one button at a time on a remote. At 5.5x8.5x2.25 inches, and with buttons 3/4 inch square, this giant universal remote should solve that problem. It uses 4 AA batteries, and costs $39.98. [Things You Never Knew]

    Giant Big Ben Blue LED Clock

    We love our clocks around these parts and this is a good one. It's giant, it's digital and it's blue, which is all you really need. The interesting fact is that the clock reads 4:20 in the product photo, which is commonly associated with an alternate hobby. I've personally never dabbled, but does this hobby possibly hinder vision? If so, pick up this clock and always know when Taco Bell is closing and when the cartoons are beginning. $120. –Travis Hudson More »

    Giant Home Entertainment Remote

    This thing should be impossible to lose, unless of course you happen to have an oversized couch. I'm still not sure if this is a legitimate product, or made to be a gag gift. On a completely serious note, it can control up to six devices and can even glow in the dark, you know, for finding it ... because it is so small. $35 More »

    Giant Anglepoise Lamp, For Big Desks or Scaring Old People

    The Anglepoise lamp is one of the coolest and most innovative lamps ever, and to celebrate its 70th birthday the company has designed a Giant Anglepoise Lamp that is three times the traditional size. Look at it, it just freaking awesome. Imagine having one in your living room, oh the ladies would swoon. Unfortunately this lamp starts at £1,234 ($2,300) for the white and cream version, and the black version runs £1,660 ($3,100). What's the deal with companies making the black models more expensive? I really want a black MacBook but I'll be damned if I have to pay a couple hundred dollars more for it. – Travis Hudson More »

    Giant Pushpins

    These giant g*ddamn pushpins are really ridiculous. You can put an eye—or possibly even your entire face—out with this thing. Nonetheless, you can use these huge ass things for really driving in a point. Like a dear John letter. Or his dog. More »
