Thomas Pink Commuter Tie Holds Your iPod As You Mosey

pinkcomtie

I’ve hid my iPod in worse places trying to smuggle it into my office building.

The Thomas Pink Commuter Tie has a special compartment built into its backside that holds the iPod. Not only is this great for listening to tunes during your commute, but helps smuggle the device into your office without looking like a slacker hippie. Oh, and don’t worry, it’s also available in straight man colors.

Taco Holders: Let Me Put My Beef In Your Taco

taco

Finally! A gadget I can actually get behind. One thing that really gets me, a real pet peeve, is when I’m eating a taco and all the tasty shit inside flies out of the shell everytime I place it on my plate. Tacos have an abnormally awkward center of balance, so there is almost no way to not have shit falling everywhere.

These Taco Holders are simply genius, just for the fact that you don’t even have to place your taco on its side when you’re not holding onto it for dear life. The beef is staying right in the taco where it belongs. Now if I only remembered to tuck a napkin into my shirt. Luckily, I’m a lot better than I was, but most of my older shirts have some sort of taco stain. You can get six of your own taco plates for $7.95. Not sure how many pesos that is.

It’s A Cup. No, It’s A Hard Drive. No, It’s A Cup

I’ve got a problem with designer Franco Marino Cagnina’s external hard drive concept. It’s not the fact that it’s 100% recyclable which gets to me, that’s just fine and dandy. It’s the fact that it looks exactly like a cup which really bothers me.

That’s not to say I don’t approve of a design change over the traditional square box with cables that is typical of most hard drives. I know, by looking at this design, that it’d be mistaken for my morning coffee and dumped in the trash with the rest of the garbage. So much for my terabytes of porn.

Toilet Paper Holder That Shits With You

Here at Gearfuse, we can never fulfill our monthly quota of toilet paper related posts, but boy do we try.

Speaking of toilet paper, one can never have enough toilet paper holders.

Here’s a bathroom buddy kindly providing you with pampering services while it, too relieves itself on the John. It’s a hand-made, 7-inch tall sculpture which possesses a keen likeness to robots. Necessities of life don’t come cheap, however. With a price of $95.97 – wait a minute! $95.97!? Holy moly! Ah hell, we’ll buy it anyway. We love robot toilet paper holders.

Wii Love Wii Accessories

I get it. You’re too classy to put all your Wii-motes into a shoebox. You want something that’s stylish and has “Wii” printed on it. The Wii Remocon storage accessory is just that. While it’s no shoe box, it can double as a pencil holder or a box you can shit in.

It’s $7.99 per Remocon which comes in black, aqua and plain white. A penny more and you’re getting robbed considering each box can only hold one controller. Who am I kidding? Paying any amount of money for this would be like buying a lap dance from a stripper without legs. That’s alright, though. Wii fans are suckers for lousy futile peripherals.

Blast From The Past: Asteroids Is Serious Business

For those not familiar with the 1979 Atari classic Asteroids, let me be the first to inform you: it’s about as hardcore as classic gaming gets. It’s an increasingly difficult game that tests the player’s reflexes, reaction time and nerves. The most difficult aspect of the game is either controlling the momentum of the player’s spaceship so you don’t crash into asteroids, or defending against little flying saucers. I hate those little flying saucers.

Klypsos, A New Use For The Paper Clip

When you’re at a kicking party that’s got a ton of free wine and hors d’oeuvres, your hands are bound to be full. With this re-imagined paper clip, however, holding a glass of wine with your dish full of appetizers will leave your other hand free to shake hands and/or grab asses.

The Polish design studio Razy2 is calling this paper clip the Kylpsos. Designed by Paulina Krauza and Jacek Ryn, two party freaks who can never have enough free hands for ass grabbing. With a free hand, picking your nose at parties is no longer problematic. At least for me.

For The Kids

Get your children started on the path to geekdom with this Robot Toothbrush Holder. It’s only $8 and can hold two brushes with its powerful claws. It’ll also hold your disposable razor, but I wouldn’t trust a ‘borg with a blade any day. Anyone who’s seen Blade Runner will tell you that.
