Portable Cardboard Table

Icelandic designer, Liborius Reykjavík, has created an cardboard work-table that can be broken down into a suitcase sized carrier that weighs very little for the table it provides. The table is meant to be reusable and is fairly sturdy. Cool design but I don't see this being used outdoors any time soon. Unless it's weighted down or something. SOURCE

Anti-Energy Drink

Here is an interesting new drink. With all the craze of "energy" drinks lately I guess it was only a matter of time before someone created the polar opposite. This drink contains melatonin, valerian root, and rose hips which enable you to "slow your roll." The drink appears to be based on the cough syrup based recreational drug known as "Purple Drank." I wonder if this is healthy to use as a sleep aid? SOURCE

Papa John's Pizza Advertising

This is an awesome new marketing thing for Papa John's pizza. This brochure actually sticks to your door right below your peephole and provides an optical illusion making it seem as though a pizza guy is already at your door. This is sure to inspire some spontaneous orders. I'm sure whoever came up with this idea is getting a pay raise. SOURCE

Office Rage

Here's a crazy video of some dude flipping out in an office. He literally loses it and just starts destroying everything. I feel really bad for the girl sitting next to him. She takes a computer monitor to the face. And no little flat screen either. A big frickin' tube monitor. Ouch.

Restroom Sound Maker for Privacy

"The Magical Water Princess" is in fact not a princess at all. It is a Japanese restroom accessory that is placed in toilet stalls in Japan in order to make it impossible to hear others using the restroom. The device emits a chirping sound for privacy. It is apparently a major fear of Japanese women to have others hearing them use the restroom. In the 80's women used to flush the toilet multiple times while they were using it in order to cover up the sounds involved. This ended up wasting an insane amount of water and costing restaurants and other public places insane amounts of money. Check out the video below and the link below that for more info on this strange device.

Gameboy Shoes

These cool shoes have an integrated Gameboy Color system that clicks in and out of the shoe and is totally functional. The shoes have become increasingly popular in Japan but I don't hink we'll see them anytime soon in the U.S. There are several different types that are available and showcased over at syberpunk.com. Check them out through the link below the picture.

UPDATE: Apparently the shoes were designed by shoe designer, Helen Red Richards. The shoes have been exhibited since the end of 2000 in some U.K. art galleries. The shoes are available to order through Nintendo only but I'm not sure how to order them. SOURCE
