Patently Ridiculous: Inventions for the Insane, Pt. 2

Attention Venture Capitalists: I have an idea that is going to make us so much money you’ll be drinking martinis made from molten platinum.  The horrible scalding of your esophagus will be the envy of all in earshot of your pained gurgles.
Any sensible person can invent something useful, but it takes real chutzpah (which is yiddish for “batshit insanity”) to invent something no one would consider using.  And If Jason Mraz’s ongoing success as a recording artist is any indication, crazy is a vast, untapped resource. We have hospitals full of these people, doing nothing but drooling and barking at the invisible marshmallow gnomes who taunt them.  All we need to do is lure enough of them from the hospital ward with promises of free foil helmets to fill a sweatshop and more guaranteed money-makers like these can be yours for the patenting:

Foot Pee! Pack

Finally!  A system that allows me to trap urine around my feet that is both easy AND surprise!

The Foot Pee! Pack makes two important assumptions – that you want to hold piss captive against your feet and that you’ll be compelled to do it more than once.  I’d question whether or not urine is even good for your feet, but it’s no crazier than injecting botulism into your face.

“If you think my frozen forehead is unsettling, wait until you smell the piss on my feet!”

There are some who allege urine is uniquely suited to smooth out and clean your skin.  I can’t speak toward its efficacy.  It could well be the beauty secret that the all-powerful cosmetics lobby doesn’t want you to know about.  I believe it’s important to keep an open mind, especially about issues that may provide a counter-argument to my wife’s insistence that I not pee in the shower.  It’s ME-TIME, damnit.

USB Stripper

It also ships with tiny dollar bills

Most oddball USB trinkets fit the same niche of serving no discernible function, costing around $10, and becoming a stale joke after about 45 seconds of service.  Nobody is sure where these increasingly asinine ideas are coming from, but my theory is CarrotTop somehow found time out of his busy schedule of freaking me out to form a thinktank:

“It’s a USB ‘Blue Tooth’!  Get it?  Get it?”

Klingon Themed Nursery

A bassinet that is equally suited for both bedding and cooking a baby

As ferocious as this looks, it’s actually pretty benign.  Unless that mobile entertains the baby with rapid stabbing motions rather than spinning, the baby is cradled safely away from danger.  I applaud the designer’s savvy in commemorating their fandom without putting an innocent, fragile life in harm’s wa….

..oh fuck me.  Never mind.  I don’t mind letting a kid learn things the hard way, but there’s no way my kid will be shouting “Giddyup, Stabby!” on this rocking horse before they’ve reached Jak’tahla.

Yes, I made a Klingon joke.  No, I’m not proud of myself either.

Pillow Wig

It took 40 scientists working around the clock for two years to develop a sleeping aparatus less dignified than this, but I’d say the above officially represents Mission Accomplished.

In reality this is just part of a pretty ingenius art collection and not something marketed for public purchase, but what does it say about their culture that I assumed otherwise?

Pee-kneeler

The Emasculatron 3000 Ships In A Variety Of Feminine Colors That Shouldn’t Bother A Sissy Like You In The Least
I’m as sicked out as anyone when I encounter a puddle of misfires surrounding a perfectly accessible urinal.  Nobody wants to get pee on their feet, right, First Section Of This Article?  However, I don’t think anything that brings men closer to that porcelain petri dish is the answer.
I prefer to address the issue with outreach and education.  Through targeted use of visual aids and signage, we can train the next generation to better appreciate the Critical Spritz Distance and how to adjust for variables like uncooperative undergarmets or partial chub.  I’ve already launched two very successful campaigns in this regard:

Laptop Sweaters

Do they make one with a Starbucks insignia?  That way it could match my cup when I’m blogging for pleasepunchme.com
Don’t let my dismissive tone turn you off from buying one of these.  It could be perfect for you.  After all, only you can know if your computer is also a preppy douche.
Ian Cheesman is strangely mesmerized by those plastic hips.  For other captivating spectacles, how about checking these out:
