Proof In The Cards: T-Mobile 3G Hits NYC Tomorrow
Live in pixelated New York, use T-Mobile and own a UMTS-enabled device unlike your dinky F1 phone? Starting tomorrow, Big-T is rolling out its long overdue 3G network in the US. NYC is the first city to get it and as you can read on this employee e-mail sent to T-Mobile stores across the US. Bitchin’ data transfer speeds, bitchin’ reception. This is the T-Mobile you’ll know as …
No commentsStroke On A Rope Is Perfect For Prison Showers
“Don’t drop the soap.” is the first bit of advice given out to every new prison inmate. We really don’t want to explain why, but you probably get the hint. ANYWAY, maybe if jailbirds had a tad bit more “relief” in the shower, they wouldn’t be so eager to spot out any soap droppers.
The Stroke On A Rope is a hand shaped bar of soap, with the hand in a posi…
Fujitsu’s New “Zero-Watt” Monitor Uses No Power On Standby
Out to save the world, are ya? No, no, don’t start shoveling your propaganda down our throats. We get it. You have your hybrids and we have our Hummers.

Contex iCondom Gag Gift About A Year Too Late
Apparently, the iPhone is still fodder for shitty jokes and tasteless products.
Case in point: the iCondom. With a box strikingly similar to Apple’s flagship telecommunications device, it’s no humongous 3G iPhone but it’s packed with goodies that are meant to be touched. iMemory, iLight, iTree and iFood are all part of the iCondom package. Allow me to inform you a bit about th…
Every Bartender/Alcoholic Needs A Whiskey Holster
Imagine a picturesque wild west town. It’s the late 1890s and the bars are hot, stale and empty. You and 5 of your amigos stroll in and order a round of whiskey shots, stat. How could you put the bartender under that kind of stress? The whiskey is clearly on the other side of the bar, next to the laser scissors. But no worry, compadre. Our bartender has the Whiskey Holster.
