BeepEgg Timer

True Gadgets — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 05:38:22 +0000

How many of you are extremely particular about how your eggs are cooked? Well, with the BeepEgg timer, you can’t really go wrong as it not only cooks your eggs to perfection, it does so in an entertaining manner. Depending on the beeping and various melodies played, it will indicate various levels of hardness. For example, folks who want soft eggs will stop when they hear ‘Killing Me Softly’, but for those who prefer medium, ‘I Wish I Was a Hen’ would be where the bus stops. The beeping will begin once the water touches approximately 45 degrees Celsius, and you can pick one up for £14.95.

Stuck Up: Magnets disguised as chewed gum

True Gadgets — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 08:59:29 +0000

The Stuck Up magnets are chewed gum replicas which you don’t have to worry about fingering by accident. If your hand brushes up against one of these ABC (already been chewed) wads of gum, there’s no need to compulsively wash your hands (as long as you don’t have some OCD disorder).

Chewed gum is the foundation of every public school. Look under any desk in a public area and you’re sure to see an assortment of flavors and brands plastered onto each surface. It’s really gross when you realize you’ve accidentally rubbed up against some stranger’s deposited chewing gum. But the sticking powers of dry gum are incredible. In fact, I sometimes wondered whether schools rely on this incredible adhesive to remain standing for so long.

The Stuck Gum is almost indistinguishable from those gatherings of gum we’ve come so accustomed too from are years of public education. Designed by Winnif Pang, each pack of Stuck Up magnets comes with 4 different flavors, including bubble gum, spearmint, peppermint, and tutti-frutti.

Each Stuck Up gum wad has a high powered magnet encased inside of its design. So try as you might, it’ll be pretty rough distinguishing your magnets from real pieces of ABC gum. For even more realism, add a little spit for some extra sheen.

A great deal of people take a drink to bed with them at night. Me, once I’m out, I’m out so there is really no need for a glass of water. Also admittedly, I’m paranoid when it comes to spiders and I always half expect to take a big gulp of water and find one caught in my throat. Yes, I’m aware I’m seriously cracked in the head. Well if you haven’t been scared out of bringing water to bed with you, you might consider picking up one of these little gadgets. That’s right, someone created glowing rubber bands and are actually calling them gadgets. Their words, not mine. Actually, technically these aren’t rubber bands, they are stretchy rings according to the seller, my bad. Well if you don’t want to fumble around in the dark trying to locate your drink, toss one of these glowing bands on it. It’ll make for easy locating at 3AM. Thankfully, these are on sale right now and have dropped in price down to about $6 or £2.99 for a pack of four.
