Check Out These Car Horns

By David Ponce

This is super old stuff but came across it recently. It’s a great way to get yourself some hate, let me tell you. See, if the most unusual car horn you ever heard was that annoying “La Cucaracha” that’s been around for 100 years, why not try a train horn? Warning: this is only for those wanting to scare the sh** out of friends, neighbors and loved ones! You can find smaller train horns for around $50 up to this bad daddy for around $400. Let’s face it, the only point of a horn is to express your road rage in a more constructive manner than punching someone in the face, and to make the guy in front of you as irritated as you are. This will do the trick. If you are not mechanically inclined, you would have to also pay a mechanic to install it for you, so add that to the total cost of getting your rocks off. Even if this isn’t for you, check out the video of the results of this gizmo. The fun starts at :38 and gives you a solid 3 minutes of laughter.

Your Kid’s Gonna Love You, Man: This Is Just The Laptop He Wanted!

By David Ponce

Then he’ll grow up and realize what a cheap bastard you were, and hate you forever (worth it!). Seems like a great kind of prank to play on some child to us. See, the iWood Laptop is nothing more than a chalkboard shaped into what looks like a portable computer: two pieces of plywood, a couple hinges and some machining, and presto! The area that would normally have a trackpad is recessed and holds… the chalk, of course.

It’s $55.
