Hasselhoff Hot Water Bottle

What does the Hoffmeister do when he is waking up from an all night drinking binge? He climbs out of the dumpster, puts on some clothes and reaches for his signature hot water bottle to ease the pain.

Grope On A Rope

The Grope On A Rope is described as “a handy soap on a rope” that is “perfect for those hard to reach spots.” I don’t know what “spots” they are referring to, but what you do with this product, a goat, and a video camera in the privacy of your home is none of my business.

I guess certain styles will appeal to anyone if this chair is any indication. Offered for import by a Chinese manufacturing company, this thing looks like a decoration left over from “Little Shop of Horrors”. Maybe it is comfortable, maybe not. I will never know because I couldn’t live with this thing sitting anywhere in my house.

Darth Vader Water Globe

If you look into the eyes of the Darth Vader Water Globe you will see Anakin Skywalker engaging in an all-out battle with Obi-Wan Kenobi. Plus, the globe features the signature Vader breathing sound and cool LED lights.

That’s right my fellow nerds. Now you have something else to think about when you touch yourself.

Peepers Keepers

Handy Bands

Why buy ordinary rubber bands when you can buy ones shaped like underwear? I’ll bet shooting rubber bands your co-workers will be extra funny with these.

The Handy Bands can be used just like regular rubber bands, except they will return to their unique shapes when not in use.

X Rated Laser Pointer
If you are going to be the kind of asshole that uses a laser pointer to annoy others, you might as well go for the gold and pick up an x-rated version.

The X-Rater Laser Pointer has 4 totally inappropriate interchangeable tips - so you will be ready for any situation. Just keep in mind that using the X-Rated Laser Pointer puts you at high risk for a slap to the face, knee to the junk, or full on ass kicking.

Cherry Blossom Glass

Throw out those coasters because the Sakurasaku ( or “Cherry Blossom Glass” ) uses the annoying phenomenon of condensation rings in a fun and artistic way.

The concept is simple - condensation combined with the shape of the glass forms a perfect outline of a Sakura flower every time the glass is lifted. It’s actually a very interesting idea and I would love to see it utilized in other designs. Unfortunately, it seems likely that this would result in some sort of perversion of the original concept - like a set of beer mugs that leave behind breast shaped rings. Still, you can be sure that I would be quick to write about such a product on Nerd Approved.

The climbing light will freak out anyone that sees it and is not expecting it to be just a light. As good a reading light as it may be, you can probably count out all Entomophobists. I would probably count most people in that group. No one would look down on someone who is afraid of an insect. We are all afraid of them and I am not afraid to say it.

I saw this on AOTS tonight and I laughed my ass off.

The Facial Flex promises to give you a face-lift without surgery. Too bad it won’t lift your self-esteem after you realized that you were gullible enough to actually buy this thing.

The video doesn’t have any sound - but believe me, it is not essential to the experience.
