Gizmodo: strippers

Peek-O-Matic Strips Pinups, Hunks, Flabby Gizmodo Editors

I liked the iPhone application that allow you to get Suicide Girls naked at the flick of a wrist. But I like this one even more, because it actually works like the old stripper pens. And even while I want more girls, it has something for everyone. [iTunes App Store]

Get Girls Naked With Your iPhone (NSFW)

Jesus Diaz — Wed, 21 Jan 2009 19:20:00 EST

Probably because they were my first sexual fetish—after my English teacher—when I was ten, I still love those old strip-a-girl pens, which get pinups naked as you turn them around. Like iFloaty for iPhone.

That's exactly what iFloaty is: A new—official—application for iPhone which gets a girl half naked when you turn it upside down. The art is not as good as the old Vargas pinups, however.

Shake Mates, on the other hand, has better graphics (gotta love the stockings) although it's not the kind of cheesecake material I would like in a thing like this. It also has a completely different strip action: To get these girls naked, you need to shake the iPhone. The more you shake it, the more clothes come off.

You know. The more you shake it. Hmm. OK. Lovely. [Macenstein]

Pole Dancing Robots Ruin Both Robots and Strippers Simultaneously

Pole dancing robots. Yes, they exist, and yes, I have video of them. No, they are not sexy. They are the polar opposite of sexy.

The robots are part of the MuTate London exhibition. Beyond that, I have no idea what in the hell is the deal with these things. I mean, I know that people have a lot of insane, indefensible fetishes, but robot strippers with CCTV cameras and bullhorns for heads? Total bonerkillers. No thank you. [BBC]

PoleRider is Part Rickshaw, Part Strip Club

Why go out to the strip club when the strip club can come to you? That's right, for $300 an hour ($200 each additional), you can rent out a rickshaw in NYC from the entrepreneurs at PoleRider. It is your all-inclusive mobile exotic dancing solution complete with a pole and tacky lights. Ahh...pole dancing. It's everywhere you want to be. Thanks PoleRiders—by the way, do you need any extra rickshaw operators? [PoleRiders (slightly NSFW) via CraziestGadgets]

JM Billiard Round Pool Table Has a Stripper Pole Attachment

Jack Loftus — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 13:00:00 EDT

Rectangular pool tables? Sounds great, gramps, but why don't you come join us ballers in the 21rst century and have a little fun? Today it's all about round tables with custom add-ons, like stripper poles, which is exactly what California-based JM Billiards is doing with their one-of-a-kind models. When the balls aren't sinking your way, toss 'em aside and take out the ones, because the night's going to get interesting. Just don't try to do both activities at the same time, because eight-inch heels and 8-balls just don't go well together. And yeah, I'm still talking about playing pool. Deviants.

Finnish Spitzer Sends 200 Sex SMS to Exotic Dancer and Her Sister

Jack Loftus — Sun, 30 Mar 2008 14:00:00 EDT

An SMS-savvy Finnish Foreign Minister has joined former New York governor Eliot Spitzer in the "thinks with the wrong head" club this week. The 60-year-old Ilkka Kanerva was discovered to have sent more than 200 text messages to an exotic dancer named Johanna Tukiainen, 29. And her sister! Despite the fact that Kanerva's longtime parter said she's not bothered by her man's wandering eyes (or should that be fingers?), people are still calling for a resignation. More below.

The Finnish press got a hold of a few text gems sent by the minister, including this vague pick up line that may or may not be related to musical waterbeds: "Would you like to do it in an exotic place? Where could it be?" When asked if 'it' meant sex, Kanerva said it was obvious that the message was an answer to an earlier inquiry from Tukiainen.

We at Gizmodo are inclined to believe the minister; he was probably referring to their upcoming coffeehouse debate about the subtle differences between the Centre Party of Finland and the more even-handed (although no less capable) approach to governing taken by the National Coalition Party. Or maybe he was just trying to get laid with the exotic dancer, and her sister. We think her name's Debra.
