DIY E-bola Isn’t What You’re Thinking

Filed under: DIYs, Science

I wouldn’t call this a weapon but more of a raver toy for use at that illegal warehouse party. Dubbed E-bola, it’s made by attaching an LED throwie (LEDs and a battery + electrical tape) to a rope which is then flailed around your body. Looks great in the dark, especially on ecstasy.

Beer Pong Raft Ruins The Game

Filed under: Design, Gaming, Household

Oh shit, get on those pro flip cup gloves, we got ourselves a game of beer pong that isn’t all fun and games on your Nintendo Wii. It’s Port-O-Pong, the amphibious portable beer pong table.

OK, so it’s just a fucking raft with some grooves for the cups that completely eliminate the chances of cups toppling over from a fast ball throw. Half of beer pong is trying to knock your opponents cups over so they’re force to lick the beer off the table. It sucks for the suckers, but hey, it’s house rules. For $54.95, buy a rickety wooden table and some plastic cups instead of this spill-proof raft that ruins beer pong altogether. Seriously what is a beer pong match without beer spilling everywhere? Leisurely drinking, that’s what.

TosPom Snaps Photos During Game Of Catch

Remember the good ole days when you and your poppy would grab your mitts and head out to the yard for a rousing bout of lobbing a ball back and forth until you started to get too aggressive, so he ran you down and tackled you, permanently leaving you with a speech impediment? What if you could share those moments forever with up close and personal photos? The TosPom is a ball-shaped camera which snaps photos as you throw it to-and-fro.

When the catch recipient catches the TosPom, the camera ball automatically snaps a photo, capturing the expression of the catcher, and displaying the image on a built-in screen, or at least that’s the intention. You figure most of the shots will have the camera facing odd directions, capturing snaps of the inside of your palm and your surroundings as well. They should include this sort of functionality on the next-gen Wii. — Andrew Dobrow
