Custom Painted Nikes

When I was a kid, the coolest shoes I ever owned were Reebok Rads (mine weren’t pink, but upon inspection and now being a confident adult, I wish they had been). Mine were blue and yellow and I kept them in top condition, until the local Nelson, Jimbo, and Kearney beat me up for them. [...]

Ninjabread Men Cookie Cutters $8

The Gingerbread Man was really mischievous. Remember? (I’m talking about the fairy tale, not the punched-up version from Shrek.) I always thought he would come running into my room when I was a child and this scared me.
As the story goes, he escapes some farmers that made him in an oven because they were childless, [...]

Pig Snout Mug $15

Man I love The Beatles. And who doesn’t, right? Pigs, that’s who. That’s why they wrote that song Piggies and put it on the White Album.
Everywhere there’s lots of piggies
Living piggy lives
You can see them out for dinner
With their piggy wives
Clutching forks and knives to eat their bacon
Now I’m not positive, but I think they’re [...]

Coming Soon: Adaptive Lens Technology

I can’t believe people go to medical school to become eye doctors. It seems to me you could take a short ESL class on how to properly pronounce the question, “better or worse” and you’d be pretty much set.
Of course, when I go to the eye doctor their always trying to upsell me on bionic [...]

Portable Watermelon Cooler $231

The Japanese are so far ahead of everyone that it’s just plain ridiculous. They’re so far ahead that sometimes they come up with new technology designed simply to screw with us. I’ve never been more sure of it.
Take, for example, this Marugoto Tamachan Portable Watermelon Cooler. Why does this thing exist? I don’t know, but [...]

TV Hat $30

TV is pretty widely considered by scholars as an effective weight loss tool, great for child rearing, and all-around awesome in everything it provides to humanity. But what if you’re not in front of a TV? What if you’re in front of something like this website that has boring words on it?
Simple, you put on [...]

The 8-Bit Tie $15

StrangeDeals wants to illuminate yet another tie. We know our readers have to pretend to dress well, all the while giving the proverbial finger to the man in the subtlest fashion (see the double entendre? I went there). It’s The 8-Bit Tie and you should probably own one.
This “stylish tie looks just like what Mario [...]

Interested In A Strange Father’s Day?

Father’s Day, much like Mother’s Day, is a weird holiday. It has inspired some of the worst, or at a minimum, least-used gifts year after year. A Flow-Bee? Paul Anka: A Treasury of Hits? A zen garden? A discount calendar full of zingers from Hogan’s Heroes?
In an unexpected turn (one we selfishly like to think [...]
