If ever I’ve experienced a truly random case of “DO WANT”, this would be it!
I like to think that I have cool enough friends who would appreciate the hilarity in the construction plate and utensils set by Urban Trend. Just imagine hosting a little get together – perhaps over some D&D or a Lost marathon? – and whipping out a set of these construction zone plates for everyone to munch from. The kid below sure digs the idea (veggies on the fork and a thumbs up – that’s some quality product endorsement, folks!)
Personally, I think it would make a fantastic plate for dips, chips n’ snacks – or “appetizers” and “crudités” for those fancy-pants foodies out there. Gives a whole new meaning to “playing with your food”, and a well deserved one at that!
So I have to admit, I don’t know that I’d necessarily want these Super Mario Bros Wall Stickers on my bedroom wall. I mean, c’mon – a diminutive Italian man jumping over my headboard with his legs all akimbo wouldn’t necessarily get me in the mood for sweet lovin’. But your mileage may vary! However, I love the idea of putting them in a bathroom, which is often the most criminally under-decorated room of the house. And of course, what better way to teach your kids about the roots of modern console gaming than by plastering their walls with some retro Mario goodness? Now if only they can find the warp whistle …
Ice is a funny thing, y’know. It usually only serves to dilute whatever you’re drinking while providing a minor (and very temporary) cooling sensation – yet I love novelty ice cube trays with their endearing oddity. And let’s not forget those rockin’ LED color-changing cubes, which are usually neither icy nor useful in any respect, other than making it look like you just stumbled off a booze cruise during spring break. (“Omigod, I am so wasted!”) But rather than tinkling in your hoisted pint glass while drunk chicks flash their cleavage, these Easter Island ice cubes are more likely to stare at you ominously with disapproval. Ahhh, but thrill to the chill of the icy Moai, with their hooded eyes and Leno-esque chins! Watch in awe as their ancient mystical powers allow them to disappear before your eyes!
… Hey shut up, it’s the best I could do! And anyway, how many ancient monolithic figures have melted into your beverages lately?
Exactly.
