Portable Device Tests for Drugs By Scanning Fingerprints
A company called “Intelligent Fingerprinting” has developed a prototype of a drug-scanning device that only needs a person’s fingerprint to scan for illegal substances. Continue reading
Cocaine Scale in an iPhone Costume
Scarface would have been all over this Cocaine Scale, which makes the device resemble an iPhone. Take off the mobile-esque case and poof, snort away into your own magical world of speed. A scale is essential for dealers who like to measure their sale out to the exact milligram. While in its case, the scale looks like your average iPhone, just about the same size, with all of the apps and even a home button. But would a cop know... Continue reading
Mario Loves Those Shrooms
Though only a silhouette exists, my detective work tells me that someone going under the alias of “Toad” is dealing shrooms. Lots of shrooms. At $20 an eighth, these are going fast and I’m worried Mario might be caught up in the mix. Rehab? We’ve considered it. But then we wouldn’t feel so big and powerful anymore and that’s just not an option right now with Princess Peach all locked up and what not. The best part about all this... Continue reading
Jackpot: Dude Finds Ecstasy Pills In Used Video Game Manual
So, here’s the deal. Some dude bought two used copies of Grand Theft Auto games for his 12-year-old son and was surprised to find a few ecstasy pills wrapped in cling wrap, hidden in the video game’s manual. Instead of quietly thanking the gaming gods and grabbing the nearest bottle of water, the father decided to cause a little scuff, claiming that his kids, whom apparently play XBox constantly, could have died if they had taken the mysterious pills. Dude,... Continue reading
3-D Maze Ball Looks Trippy
After reading the description of this maze, I’m still not sure I entirely understand it: Have puzzles gone passé? With the advent and subsequent mainstreaming of videogames caused physical toys to go by the wayside? What do you get when you multiply six by nine? The answer to the first two questions is “No,” and the last, “42.” What? I’m pretty sure that whoever created this puzzle was on drugs and had it in for other people on drugs. They...

Longevity Drug Is A Hit With The Mice
It would be nice to never have to age into a decrepit sack of sagging flesh, but alas, that is the fate of every one of us. However, it doesn’t have to be. Science is always real reliable when it comes to doing the impossible and what’s more impossible than prolonging death? Scientists recently working with a potential longevity-enhancing drug have had great success while testing it on mice. Having passed its final animal testing challenge, we’re ready to start...

Stone Age Is Now The ‘Stoned Age’
For a long time, scientists have suspected that humans have an ancient history of drug use. Without any proof, such speculations become nothing more than the rantings of a scientist doped out on hallucinogens. Now, valid proof that humans from the Stone Age dabbled in the arts of “getting fucked up” have appeared on the Caribbean island of Carriacou. Quetta Kaye of UCL and Scott Fitzpatrick, an archeologist from North Carolina State University, have discovered equipment used to prepare hallucinogenic... Continue reading
Smuggling Drugs With A Playstation 2
Good idea: buying a PS2 to play some sick games. Bad idea: buying a PS2 to gut it and smuggle drugs into your country. That’s just what these three men, two Canadians and a New Zealander, are accused of. Well, not so much accused but more like getting caught red handed. Australian customs detected the parcel containing the drugs at Sydney’s international mail facility on October 5. They found 3,400 ecstasy pills hidden inside the PS2 that was en route...

Trippy iPod Is By No Means Portable
Either I’m on some awesome drugs that I don’t know about or the Russian artists who designed this oversized iPod are. OK, I just gave myself a blood test; I’m sober. That means that both Aristarkh Chernyshev and Alexei Shulgin are out of their skulls for crafting this large, warped, fully-functional iPod. It looks like they put a giant iPod in a brick oven then, once it was well done, connected some 500 XL speakers to it. I can’t imagine the... Continue reading
Pixos Is Essentially A Recalled Children’s Toy
Slick marketing is an evil and effective way to get things done your way. Take for instance the Pixos Super Studio I found on Random Good Stuff. At first, it looks like a cool kids toy that uses water and beads to paint “pixelated” pictures that can turn into toys. The product description states: Just add water, and watch in amazement as the PixOs beads magically fuse together to create a work of art. When you’re done with your creation,... Continue reading
