Pillow Made For People Who Sleep On Their Arms

Rejoice, fellow brothers (and sisters) who sleep on their arms! A pillow has finally been created for us. Yes, this pillow is specifically design for people who place their arm under their pillow while they sleep. I happen to be one of the many dreamers who do this and I’m quite surprised I can’t find one of these bad-boys at Walmart.

Wondering why this is such a monumental event? I can’t begin to tell you how much pressure your 10-pound cranium puts on your arm if you sleep on it. Buy your “Arm Sleeper’s Pillow” now.

The Hoodie-Footie Snuggle Suit: Your Full-Body Snuggie

Apparently I didn’t get the memo but Snuggie and it’s sexier sister-in-law, the Hoodie-Footie Snuggle Suit, are all the rage. The latter, which is $49.95, is basically three things in one. It’s a hoddie, your favorite slippers, and a blanket. What could be better?

Oh, and for the fellas out there this badboy isn’t just for women. Just look how manly this guy looks. Lucky for you the online retailers are doubling it’s price for Valentines day. Order your sexiness here.

Neato XV-11 Robotic Vacuum Cleaner Cleans With Lasers

One of my biggest gripes about the Roomba is it’s random way of cleaning my floors. Before it broke down (after a year and a half of use) it would clean my carpets fairly well but since it did so in a completely arbitrary fashion, it didn’t clean as well as it should.

Well, a company with one of the most unoriginal names is here to change that. They call themselves Neato. Their newest robot vacuum is called the Neato XV-11 and it uses lasers to scan and map your entire room. Its design isn’t as elegant as Roomba’s circular shape, but it does get the job done efficiently. Using its mapping system, it not only ensures that every inch of floor gets cleaned but it doesn’t waste precious energy on recleaning floor that’s already been covered.

It sounds a lot like the Furot II, but unlike the Furot, it uses the principles of jet engine airflow to pick up the tiniest of dirt and dander. You can order the Neato XV-11 online at Neatos website for $399.

The Exploding Mechanical Picture Frame

\

This picture frame doesn’t hold… pictures. It, instead, just explodes and then resembles itself and explodes again. I think this would work more better being a clock, but, whatever.

Rob Dyrdek’s Fantasy Factory Building Hygiene Products, Not Skate Products

Rob Dyrdek is now loved by more than just skateboarders. With a hit television show and a soaring skateboarding career, it’s no wonder why this young entrepreneur is building his own brand. Dyrdek’s latest product — well, not really “latest” –  is in the smell good department.

TAG Signature Series features the faces of two other celebrities: Carmelo Anthony and rapper extraordinaire, Ludacris. While the deodorant’s name is probably the longest ever (full name: TAG: Signature Series: Make Moves: Rob Dyrdek), it’s by far one of the best smelling men’s deodorant I’ve had the privilege of wearing. I’m not kidding, either. Being that I’ve been in this world for over 25 years, I’ve had my fare share of deodorant testing.

The only downside to the Dyrdek’s deodorant is that it’s a white solid. Sure, the package says “Invisible Solid” but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Clumps abound when you stick it to the curb. It also offers painful reminders of the countless commercials for women’s deodorant.

Other than the “invisible solid” issue, Dyrdek and TAG score high in the smell and anti-perspirant areas.

Thanksgiving Fail: Epic Turkey Cake

Can you believe Thanksgiving has already come and gone? I sure can’t. So, obviously, Thanksgiving is all about family and food. The latter for the most part. It’s a time when amateur chefs test their newly found skills in cooking, frying, and sometimes, baking. So, how do you complement that gargantuan Thanksgiving dinner? With a delicious [and festive] cake, of course!

Now, depending on which side you root for, this turkey cake is either delicious looking or completely disgusting.

Why You Should Just Call The Garbage Man

Listen, folks. I know the economy’s not the best, but why not spend an extra $10-20 a month on the garbage man? At least you’ll save your self from exploding trash cans to the face.

I thought I would have put this under fail, but after watching the replay of his face smashing into the side of his out, it’s so WIN!

iB Rubinetterie Shower Heads: A Disco While You Wash

Yeah, the lights are gimmicky, but I love the slick design these flat iB Rubinetterie shower heads offer. The lights are supposed to offer “color-therapy,” or what us unwealthy folks like to call “lame.” Nevertheless, the style is totally in. While the iB Rubinetterie lets you choose from a wide array of light settings it also allows you to control how much, or how little, water you want flowing out of them. So, if you want to be dancing in the rain (and seriously, who wouldn’t?) flip it over to full-flow or simply relax on the gentler side in a spring shower.

Today’s National Kidds Kids Day: Donate Today!

I don’t donate a lot, simply because I don’t have the money, but today’s different. For years I’ve been listening to Kidd Kraddick In The Morning, a morning show on my local radio that consists of a cast of the most normal people I’ve ever heard. And, although they may be normal, it’s what I like about them. Once a year they turn to their listeners and today’s that day. Today is Kidds Kids Day.

Kidds Kids Day is the one day out of the year where Kidd, Kelly, Big Al, JC, Shannon and the rest of the crew ask us for donations. The funds are used better than any other charity I can think of. No, I’m not dissing any other charity as I believe all are done well, but listening to the show every day gives me great joy in this particular one. The funds are used to take a group of terminally ill children to Disney World. And they don’t just take the kids, either; they also take their parents, brothers and sisters.

I’ll be donating for the first time this year with the $10 I’ve made from the ads on this website. Follow me to the donation page where I highly encourage you to donate anything. Hell, a dollar if you have it. Some of these children are dieing and this is the last chance they’ll get to remember this world — one not full of pain or hospital visits.
