Oh Snap!: Cutting the Cheese from the Comfort of a Mouse Trap

Mouse traps are surely not the most pleasant surface to eat on. I could think of at least 1,000 places I’d rather eat (please don’t push me, I will list them all) than on the future death bed of a rodent. Oddly enough, this ingeniously designed “mouse trap” is actually a cheese cutter in disguise. It’s tempting, not because of ...

Foldable Bed is a Real Space Saver for Small Apartments

We’re not, what you might call, “living large” here at Gearfuse (unless we’re talking about our scarily huge genitals. Really, we’re monsters.) We’re lucky if we can have more than two friends over at once without feeling cramped. But that’s not to say we’re complaining. We have a little nook to call our own for the time being, and that’s ...

Ballin’: iHoop From Spalding

Basketball can be fun when you’re with a couple of friends. Just the guys, chilling back and shooting a few hoops. But how do you get pumped before a game? Perhaps you listen to music on your iPod, like Michael Phelps does. Or, maybe you’re more of a Twitterer, like Shaq. Either way, getting Spalding’s new iHoop will get everyone ...

XL Wall Mounted Aquarium

Anyone can waltz into the nearest Circuit City Best Buy, purchase a 42-inch LCD TV and hang it on their wall, but where’s the fun in that? If you’ve got a summer home of some sort, ditch the TV in favor of socializing and pick up the 21 gallon XL Wall Aquarium. At $1500, it costs as much as a ...

Get Into Bed With The Super Mario Bros.

Oooh baby. Let me see that mustache. Very nice. Here, crawl into bed with me. Mmm, that’s a sexy raccoon tail you have there. How’d you say you got that again? Something about a red leaf now? Nevermind. I want you to do the nasty in front of everyone, I just don’t care. Let Boo and the Goomba watch us. ...

Pac-Man Stools

I love the look of these handmade stools that were spotted over in Japan. There’s a Pac-Man stool and then four additional stools shaped like ghosts. That’s right, take a seat and plop down on top of Inky, Blinky, Pinky and Clyde. They won’t mind. After all, they’re inanimate objects from a 1980s video game. Link

Mr. Switch Light Switch Loves When You Flick His Nose

To be perfectly honest, I sort of feel bad for Mr. Switch. He has people constantly tweaking his nose into impossible angles and he’s forced to smile through it all. But we can see through his pain. Those down-turned eyebrows tell us all we need to know about Mr. Switch’s mental state. We half expect lines of grief to form ...

Winter Recreated Indoors… With Post-It Notes

Don’t ask me why they did it, but they did it. Design group “I Never Kissed A Dog” spent hours, meticulously covering a room in white Post-It notes, as to recreate the wintery whiteness of the coldest season of the year. The project, called “Winter 1972,” does a bang up job of recreating the sharpness of winter’s chill, and it ...

PB&J Pillows Are Deliciously Comfortable

That’s why you should take your leftover birthday money your ‘rents gave you and purchase these handmade PB&J pillows off Etsy. Created by user Diffractionfiber, each pillow is 16″ ...

No Use Crying Over Spilt Milk Cereal Bowl

There really is no reason to cry over the Spilt Milk Cereal Bowl. And there’s a good reason why there isn’t. While it might look like a traumatic mess is about to unfold, the bowl is no more likely to cause a mess then any other bowl, unless a child or senior happens to be using it. Because then, you ...
