Sexual Gadgets Can Now Be Seized at US Borders Too

First it was liquid bottles. Then laptops. And now they are seizing our penis extensors, penis pumpers, and other sexual gadgets. The FDA is saying that they represent a real risk and federal border agents have now a guideline to confiscate them at US territory entry points. The list would be hilarious if it weren't so surreal and stupid: More »

Swarovski Crystal Engagement Ring (With USB)

I've proposed three times in my life. Once was with a traditional diamond ring (it went well). The other two were with tacky USB devices (which also went well). The lesson learned? I'm suave enough to score chicks people as long as I'm on my knees.

As for my next weapon of choice, it will have to be this USB Flash Drive Swarovski Crystal Engagement Ring. Only a concept at the moment, manufacturers are fearing releasing this technology that fuses tacky USB with ostentatious stones, lest I score every person in the entire world. [designer via tfts]

Contura Ring Profiles Your Love

I can think of no better gift to a loved one than a picture of myself. But ink, even in its timeless fashion, often fails to capture the true essence of my visage. That's why the Contura ring appeals to me so. I merely send in a profile shot and luxury gift supplier Fitzsu will make a ring from the shape. A stainless steel version will run $625—of course non-precious metals would never do—though the more suitable gold version will certainly weigh down the pocketbook at $5,730. But knowing that I can pass the God-given gift that is my face to another this holiday season? How can one place a price upon perfection? [product via gadgetlab]

ring box

Gold Wedding Ring Box Has 2-inch LCD, Plays Video

As the married editors of Gizmodo can vouch for, when you ask your wife to marry you she's not going to remember anything about the box the ring comes in, just the ring itself. However, this ring box has a 2-inch LCD that can play back 60 minutes of video or 500 photos, which means you can present her with both a ring and naked pictures/video of her to enhance the mood. With this Euricase Multimedia Ring Box you can be sure your lady knows to judge a book by its (tacky, tacky) cover as well as its contents. Best of all, you can keep on using the ring as an alarm clock and a calendar! You win forever! [Euricase via Everything USB via Oh Gizmo]

Key Rings

What's more embarrassing for Charlie Murphy than having "Unity" indented on his forehead? How about Ctrl Alt Delete? It's too bad Rick James wasn't a geek, or else that story would have went down slightly differently for Darkness. $89 each. More »

Intelligent Vibrations...For Phones That Is

Toshiba scientists have come up with a unique way to make your cellphone vibrate. A pressure sensor inside a flip phone will detect how much pressure is being put on the phone and will adjust the vibration for an incoming call accordingly. So if you're some snobby emo-kid wearing women's jeans, the phone will vibrate lightly. If however you threw it in your baggy sweatpants' pocket, it will shake and rumble until you answer it or the richter scale picks it up. I'm down since I'm always missing calls due to subtle vibrations from my cellphone. The technology is designed for flip-phones currently, but other ideas are apparently in the works. More »
