Brilliant Vado Shower Head Is a Refreshing Squid Attack

It may look like the business end of a squid, but I have a feeling the Sculpture showerhead from Vado would be bad ass in the bathroom.

Think about it—you can set those tentacles up to spray water in any direction. It's kind of like blending elements of traditional shower heads, rain shower heads and those full-body systems that everyone dreams about owning. [Vado via Trendir via DVICE]

The USB Squid Hub

No, it's not a USB Squid stick. Unlike that monstrosity, this USB Squid is useful for more than a three second chuckle. It's designed like the power squid, which means it takes one USB port and turns it into four for your convenience.

Since it's arranged in a tentacle-like fashion, the your USB devices won't be bumping against each other no matter how large they are. – Jason Chen

The Japanese Invent Squid USB Stick

If we had to pick between two recent Japnese USB drives that rank a nine on the weridness scale, we'd have to choose the Humping Dog drive and this Glowfly Squid drive.

Not only does this resemble the great lord Cthulhu, you can split him in half and shove him into your laptop to store "The Complete Pirated Works of Lovecraft" you found on bittorrent.

The only question we have is, how soon will it be before we see USB sticks shaped like genitalia shooting our way from the East? – Jason Chen

Squid Postcards: Straight From the Sea to the Postman's Hands to Your Mouth

Japan is crazy. Proof: they have squid jerky postcards over there. Luckily, the squid is shrink-wrapped to prevent postman hangnails getting mixed in there, but who knows; those might be a delicacy in Japan too.

For under $3 each, consider your Christmas shopping taken care of. –Adam Frucci
