I don’t care what kind of keychain you have, you are not anywhere near as cool as the guy who has a Battleship game on his keychain. It may only have a total of 25 possible guesses, but I bet you still can’t hit your opponents damn boat. At least this way I have a chance.

Dry Nasty Crap

I am a realist and a doormat like this just speaks to me. You know that you are going to be making a mess of it but you still want a little order. Keep the wet stuff and the dry crap apart from each other. If you don’t you will end up with mud and then you will have twice the mess. And make sure your guests are aware that this is not just a suggestion.

The regular yellow Post-It notes are dated and have no personality to them. Your co-workers will have a greater appreciation for the type of person you are if you leave your little notes on these Dali Post-Its. The man seems like a freak, but no one has has een come close to the genius of his art.

Chalk Chess: Draw Before You Play

Personally, I think the game of chess is difficult enough without having to draw the board before playing. That, and the fact that your chess pieces would be difficult to use after only a few games make this idea a little to impractical. Still, I have no doubt that Chalk Chess will become an actual product sometime soon, but it appears to be in the pre-production stage at the moment, so the price has yet to be determined.

I am not too proud to admit that I have seen some Smurfs episodes. Maybe I didn’t see enough of them, but I don’t recall an Indian Smoking Smurf character. It would be a shame if they didn’t find a way to work him in somewhere. At least one of them is able to kick back and relax.

This is a bit of an ironic twist. Instead of spewing noxious gases like a normal factory, this one sprouts whatever colorful flower you choose. If I am decorating, I need to have functional items that make a statement. Nothing like trying to make those slacker friends of yours think.

It would be great if turning the lights off in the bedroom always resulted in sex, but we all know that this switchplate is a tad unrealistic. If it truly represented real life, the off position would me marked with the word “cry.”
