The automatic Mini Sky Umbrella for the delusional

mini-sky-umbrella

No one likes to deal with dark gloomy days, but we deal with it anyway.  Well if you’d like to stay in denial about how bleak the day is looking, you could always pick this umbrella up.  Even if the skies are gray, right above you can be bright blue with puffy white clouds.  That is, just as long as you keep this umbrella open.  Then to keep up the illusion, you could just keep all the curtains drawn for the day at home and work.  The umbrella would also be great for the lazy types that can’t be bothered to put any effort into opening their umbrella.

It automatically opens and closes all by itself, all you have to do is push a button.  Perhaps someday soon instead of pushing a button, we could just think about it.  Those would be the days.  Although this would be nice for the lazy, it’s also good for the clumsy types that have issues juggling opening the umbrella and carrying a purse out in the pouring rain.  It’s a kind of pricey umbrella though, it’ll cost you $34.95.

Sap Cap Packs a Blackjack Into a Black Hat [Weaponry]

The Sap Cap isn’t just a logo-less baseball cap. It’s also a blackjack, one of those weighted leather weapons private eyes used to get socked with all the time back in the 1940s.

The bill is meant to be held like a handle, and the crown of the cap is heavily weighted, in case you want to bust some skulls but don’t have any pocket space for a normal blackjack. It’s not really clear what’s actually providing the weight; apparently it’s a “unique material that is 110% the density of lead and will not rust,” which is thoughtful, because a rusty baseball cap is a dead giveaway that something weird is going on.

Russian Roulette Balloon Gun Game

The Russian roulette balloon gun lets you experience the lethal game of chance without the associated permanent risks.

Russian Roulette Balloon Gun Game

With this toy gun, an inflated balloon is attached to the gun barrel. If you’re feeling lucky, point the gun towards your head and pull the trigger. There’s a 1 in 6 chance that a spring loaded pin will fire, popping the balloon.

If you happen to be the unlucky one and take the “bullet” on your turn, you won’t blow your brains out but you might suffer some temporary hearing loss with the loud popping noise right next to your ear.

The gun sells for $16 and might be a blast during a round of drinking games.
