Tissue Box Spy Camera Watches You as You Wipe Your Snot

Erica Ho — Thu, 19 Mar 2009 21:00:00 EDT

Ignorance is bliss, but if you reeaaally want to know what goes on behind the scenes, this tissue-box spy camera will catch those moments: hopefully the good, not the bad, and definitely not the gross.

You can set the tissue box to record when scheduled, to be motion-triggered or to be controlled by remote control. The timestamped video is recorded onto a 2GB SD card (which is upgradable to 16GB) at a resolution of up to 720×480 pixels, even in low-light situations. So if you have a whopping $600, head on over to possibly catch your maid stealing or, most likely, just to find somebody playing around with their nose cooties. [Brickhouse via Boing Boing]

Talking Tissue Box Doubles Your Pain

When you're ill, sneezing all about the place and with enough mucus in your esophagus to grow a bacterial colony big enough to take over the world, the last thing you need is the Talking Tissue Box. Why? Well, all it does is either cough or sneeze each time you reach out for a tissue. Having a cold, you're probably in the best position to know what coughing and sneezing sound like, so your not going to want this tissue box bastard seemingly mocking you. If you ask our opinion, keep the two AA batteries for your Wiimote and stash the $19.99 asking price for your yearly stock of Robitussin. [Product Page via Nerd Approved]

Gamecube Tissue Box: Perfect for This Time of Mourning

In the end, shoving the guts of a Gamecube into a tissue box and tissues into the cube is only fitting—it's just about time for it to pass on to the shelf of dusty systems. Sure we can play our 'Cube games on the Wii, but it's just not the same. It's okay to cry. We won't make fun of you.
