SkinBag: Human Skin Fashion and Accesories 0

Where Leatherface would shop if he had internet access

Fur is so passé. This season, Serial Killer Chic is in, thanks to Skinbag!


Hipster Buffalo Bill: “Would you f**k me? I’d f**k me. I’d f**k me hard. Right after I finish my latte.”

Skinbag makes a range of products for the discerning maniac from a synthetic human skin that looks disgustingly real. (Seriously, it has wrinkles and veins and everything.) Look just like “Buffalo Bill” in stylish jackets and skirts that appear to have been carved right off of a freshly butchered transient!

Skinbag also makes camera bags and even courier laptop bags for the tech-savy whackjob with lots of money and disproportionately less common sense. Get yours today, and shame your family by dressing like a freak even though it’s not even Halloween time!


Made from leftovers of fat people after plastic surgery! Just kidding! (I think)

You can’t fault Skinbag for being original. But I think it’s safe to say that it is pretty gross.

Pimp your ride with all manner of crazy devices! Safety be damned!

Horntones

Nothing screams “hey everyone, look at me, I’m a mongoloid!” like an annoying personal ringtone. Now, morons worldwide can extend this excruciatingly intolerable bit of “personalization” to their cars, too!


“Low Rider”, you are no longer alone amongst personalized honking sounds.

Horntones asks the question: Why settle for a “honk”, when you can have a few bars of T Pain’s “Buy U A Drank” instead? We answer: Because that’s stupid, potentially dangerous, and most certainly annoying. Horntones replies: It was a rhetorical question, dude, come on.

Simply introduce whatever crap song you happen to be listening to at the moment to your Horntone device via USB, and you’re ready to cause traffic accidents in style!

Top Cat Rabbit Travel Vibe

In the unlikely event that a woman might be so horny that they couldn’t even wait until they get home to masturbate, Top Cat is here to meet their needs with the Rabbit Travel Vibe.


Would be a trucker’s best friend, if they didn’t all have penises.

Simply plug the travel vibes 12V adaptor into your cars electric socket, and commence to jigglin’! The ever-popular rabbit design is allegedly the most powerful stimulator in the world, and what better place to make use of it then while you are in dead stop traffic! Surrounded by strangers. Staring at you.

The Top Cat Rabbit Travel Vibe makes a great gift for nymphomaniacs and exhibitionists, and is probably not legal or safe to use while your car is in motion. But danger is sexy, right?

Road Pro Car Appliances

Remember that one episode of the Simpsons where Homer has installed a number of household appliances in his car, like a coffee maker, an iron, a TV and a waffle iron? And then he drives his car off a bridge because he couldn’t even see the road?


Sigh… If only there was a way to spill a whole pot of scalding hot coffee in my lap all at once… What? There is? Hot diggity dog!

You too, can drive off a bridge as a result of being ass-deep in incongruously placed appliances thanks to Road Pro! Road Pro offers a range of appliances that have no business being in a car, ranging from coffee makers to portable oven/pizza makers. All of which plug directly into your cars electric socket!

Why stop at an AM/PM when you can brew coffee, pop popcorn, mix blended cocktails and toast a delicious panini sandwich in the comfort of your own automobile? Turn your car into the world’s smallest and most volatile RV with the help of Road Pro.

Gadgets for the Drinking Man 0

Because nothing goes together like liquids and sensitive electronics!

Asahi Beer Pouring Robot

Are you too lazy to open your own beer? Have you got a mighty thirst for a delicious frosty beverage, but have the motor skills of Stephen Hawking? Asahi’s Beer Pouring Robot is here to help!


Like an alcoholic R2D2

This ingenious robo-pal can refrigerate a six-pack, open and pour you a beer, all the while entertaining you with recordable audio and programmable LCD display. Unlike your own swarthy self, the Asahi Beer Pouring Robot is self-cleaning. It’s like a girlfriend that won’t have sex with you! So it’s more like a wife, really, only not as round.

It takes about as long for the Asahi Beer Pouring Robot to actually finish pouring you a brew as it does to open and drink one yourself, but this does little to diminish the cool factor. Combine with a portable latrine and never leave the couch again!

Beer Pager

Always losing your beer around the house or at parties? The Beer Pager circumvents this problem by providing you with a tiny key that’s even easier to lose!


Possibly the classiest gadget since the advent of the Fart Machine

Assuming that you are capable of holding on to the key, just press the giant red button and a resounding belch will issue forth from your Beer pager beer cozy/coaster. Follow the sound and flashing lights back to your wayward beverage. Crisis averted!

The Beer Pager comes in a the stylish design shown above, and can accommodate virtually any can or bottle! 40oz. drinkers will sadly have to continue duct taping them to their hands, as there are no plans for a larger cozy at this time.

Booze Cruz RC Drinking Game

Do you love drunk driving but hate spending the night in the slammer? Still itchy from the crabs you contracted on your last visit? Be safe and play the Booze Cruz RC Drinking Game instead!


Sobriety Test Playset sold seperatley

Booze Cruz RC comes with a remote controlled car with an indentation for placing a shot glass of your favorite liquor. Also included are cones to be used for building an obstacle course.

How shit-faced drunk can you get and still navigate the course without spilling your drink? Spice things up and buy two so you can play Cops and Drunkards or Lindsay Lohan Coked Out Car Chase!

K-Os: Collected 0

Posted on August 29, 2007 by jeremyazevedo

One of the best hip hop/soul releases of the year.

With the recent success of Hip-Hop acts like Common and MF Doom, Canadian artist K-Os has enjoyed a recent upswing in popularity. Already a superstar in Canada, K-Os is finally achieving increased relevancy in the US market that has been somewhat elusive to him in the past.

In order to reintroduce himself to worldwide audiences and get on that hipster rap gravy train before it leaves the station, K-Os has released a collection of singles and favorite unreleased tracks from his three previous albums.

K-Os Collected as a whole sounds like a perfectly cohesive album. If you didn’t already know better, you couldn’t possibly guess that some of this material is from as far back as 2002.


I guess they have American Apparel over in Canada too. Canadian Apparel?

This works well in the album’s favor, as a wide range of styles are present, ranging from Amy Winehouse nouveau-classical soul (on The Rain and Crucial) to Neptunes style bangers (I Am). Some songs even showcase 80’s rock throwback (Born To Run) and flows that hearken back to the Pharcyde or the Roots (on Equalizer, Mushaboom).

While K-Os has been known as the type of artist that is either too critical or too introspective, much of his new material strikes a balance between the two, and in addition to this, he has really come into his own as a guitarist and keyboardist. While on tour, K-Os plays with a live band, and this lends him a better perspective of the importance of performance than most hip-hop artists have.

Honestly I can’t recommend this album enough, especially if you are unfamiliar with K-Os. There is enough variety here to please just about everyone. K-Os Collected is the kind of album that can indie rap hipsters and casual listeners can both agree on.

Halo Movie: Pics and Video! 0

Commence: Nerdgasm

Despite the fact that studio funding has been halted indefinitely, new live action Halo video and behind the scenes stills have recently surfaced, and we have them here:

Halo Live Action Video: Combat

While it seems that this footage is to be used as promotion for the upcoming Halo 3 release, rumors persist that it is actually test footage to be shown to investors in hopes of reviving production of the canceled Halo movie.

Similarly to the “Arms Race” footage debuted earlier at this year’s E3, the new “Combat” video was directed by Neill Blomkamp and produced by Peter Jackson, in collaboration with Bungie Studios, Weta Workshop and Origami Digital.

Clearly the video is not up to the “A-Picture” standards one would expect, but it has to be said that it still looks pretty impressive. Especially when one considers that production of the Halo movie was supposedly halted nearly a year ago.

Microsoft, Bungie, Jackson and Blomkamp all seem committed to bringing the Halo movie project back into the light, and after seeing this promotional clip, I wish them luck. If what we’ve seen so far is any indication, a Halo movie would be a more than welcome addition to next summer’s blockbuster movie schedule.
