sign language



I can't figure out what this is a sign for.
I feel like it's warning me about something...even though warning signs would usually be in yellow or red. Obviously the person is running, but why? Is that supposed to be a door, or a box? I think this is a sign warning you that you are about to run into a sign that leaves you feeling blank.

digital stimulation


So I'm not crazy about the design for this alarm clock. The way the cat is turned makes it seem like the window reading the time is located in it's "kitty zone." I wonder where the snooze button is? Never mind, I really don't want to know. Purrhaps this cat is just high on catnip--the time in the photo does read accordingly.

well hung


What was this company thinking when they made this? I don't know if I could hang something on these without getting goosebumps. It actually says "Hug Me" at the top of the package!

trigger happy

Cool vintagey-looking batman squirt gun. Bad design concept. With the trigger in his "bat zone" and the refiller plug up his....cape...I have to wonder if this toy was really designed for kids or for adults.
