Marc Jacobs Fig
Let's face it: finding stinky stuff for guys (and for yourself, if you're a guy) that doesn't well, stink, is hard work. But the alternative is simply not an option (remember tumbling out of the lift gasping for air after holding your breath all the way to level 5 while standing behind Matt from Accounts?).
Spanish Talking Watches
We'll be honest. When you look at these watches it's hard to believe they are actually made for the blind. It's like Inspector Gadget and the design team for Casio keyboards collaborated on this puppy. Was that mini-speaker built to amplify the synthy stabs of a Casio demo mode?
No sir, not this one.
TV Trash Bags
Hide your money, this credit crisis is the real deal. But as good people all across America cry into their comfort food, the ladies at TV remind us that even the threat of an impending recession is nothing to be depressed about.
Available in black and yellow or white and blue, these vinyl carry-alls will have you looking your miserly best as you schlep your fast-food vouchers and worthless mortgage securities around town.
Last Exit to Nowhere T-shirts
It's a shame that slogan T-shirts are lamer than a guy who just got stabbed in the kneecap with a wasp knife, because the other day I was inside my closet looking for the doorway to my secret den (from whence I once sent emails to prospective publishers regarding my manuscript "Hello Cleveland: A Band That Never Made It Outside Ohio") when a box toppled from the shelf, bringing with it a flood of memories.
Natural Selection Magazine
Growing up in the quiet, beautiful and boring confines of New Zealand, I find myself feeling an unhealthy affinity for the place now I don't live there. This affinity has grown to include anything at all that touches the hands of any Kiwi. NATURAL SELECTION is one of those things, not that it isn't absolutely justified.
Russian World
Most of us are fairly familiar with the ex-super power, Russia, and have no doubt drunk the national drink on more than a few occasions.
Some of us may have made politically incorrect banter about mail order Eastern Bloc brides, and jokes of a similar sarcastic stature regarding Russian Olympic weightlifters and gymnasts.
Tupperware Quick Chef II
I'm sure that someone, somewhere, has invented a handier, more useful kitchen gadget than this. But until it's delivered to my front door in eco-friendly bubble wrap, the Tupperware Quick Chef Hand Blender II takes the crown of kitchen's most wanted. Living in a share house, where a flatmate's pasta bake (inexplicably) takes two hours to prepare, this gadget has time after time shaved, sliced and diced valuable minutes off meal times.
