Here are some funny newspaper headlines. Most of them are old but it’s nice to be reminded that there are people who are dumber than yous.

Mr. Belding, also called Dennis Haskins, has been doing very well partying since the “Gold Age.” And by partying, I mean gaining a lot of weight. Here’s Mr. Belding and Tony Romo singing Journey:

Japanese package designers decided to take the boring barcodes and add designs around them. You forget that the barcodes are there at all. Also on the link, there are examples of other barcode-related designs, even a building with a barcode as the fascade.

The Lean and Clean Balancing Machine Bookshelf is not only a cool looking bookshelf but also serves many purposes. The most functional being that it is not fixed in one position. This bookshelf is always balancing on one round peg in the wall. It keeps the dust off since, it won’t rest on flat surface for a long time. Everytime you take a book off of one side, the whole shelf will tilt. Another useful feature is that the counterbalances are decorative frames. You can put tiny flowers like the ones in the picture or real pictures of you looking scared while going down a roller coaster last year at Six Flags.

Like Pokemon but for the adult that’s into politics and Gameboy.

First one is the product on the left. They call it the SteakHouse Grill. It’s pretty much a steak toaster. You put your steak into the middle and the electric grill heats it from the sides. The fat grease drip to the bottom which also reduces smoke. It’s $199, so why don’t you have it yet? Oh yeah, I can’t find a way to buy it.

Second (to the right), is a Tetris ice block manufacturer. It’s a concept design that they named “Tetrice.” It’s an ice tray with Tetris block shapes so you can play Tetris as long as ice doesn’t melt. So, this is great for when you’re outside in below freezing temperatures and you got nothing to do.

Designed by Andrea Cingoli, Paolo Emilio Bellisario, Cristian Cellini and Francesca Fontana. These pen caps can serve as a cutlery.

Turn your favourite office tool from your desk in a common cutlery…this is din-ink. A set of pen caps, including a fork-cap, a knife-cap and a spoon-cap, that replaces the normal pen cap during lunch time! All caps are made by annually renewable resources, like natural starch and fibres, to be 100% biodegradable and atoxic, warranting the best alimentary use. Dispensing each set in a compostable packaging the whole set is designed to respect the environment. Now give your office ballpoint pen a good excuse to be gnawed by your teeth: use them for din-ink.

These are teddy bears that were de-stuffed, turned inside out and restuffed. The results are pretty interesting-looking. Also, this is my 300th post, only 65 for a whole year’s worth of posts.
