Dough-Nu-Matic – Screw Krispy Kreme, make them yourself

By Chris on Monday, Oct 15th 2007 No Comments

I’ve recently been on a Krispy Kreme kick. Though my latest venture to my local shop left me less than pleased. There were plenty of my favorite doughnuts there when I arrived, however, it was a good ten minuted before anyone actually arrived at the counter to help me, and by then the girl at the drive-thru had stolen them all. I was then informed that it was going to be at least a good twenty minutes or so before I would see any more. I’m still a bit sore over it, as that was just last night. Then I saw this wonderful device and I got quite excited.

Toaster Teapot – For the suicidal tea lover

By Chris on Friday, Sep 14th 2007 1 Comment

One good way to ensure that you kill yourself dead is to plug in a toaster, jump in the tub (full of water) and drop in said toaster. I believe this was one of the ways Bill Murray killed himself in Groundhog Day (that movie was just messed up, and the single reason that I hate that stupid holiday). Now that you’ve been told of a simple way to commit suicide, I give you the Toaster Teapot.

Koolatron Coin-Op Mini Fridge – Keep the moochers at bay

By Chris on Tuesday, Sep 4th 2007 1 Comment

I have some friends that love to come over and head straight for my fridge. It seems like they’ve no more gotten their feet in the door then I hear them ask if I’ve got anything to drink (while opening a can of my Mountain Dew at the same time). Perhaps I need something like this mini fridge to keep the moochers at bay.
