SnūzNLūz: Wake up to the smell of...Animosity...
Connects via WiFi to your online bank account, and donates YOUR real money to an organization you HATE when you decide to snooze!
For years the masses have told you that if you snooze you lose. You never believed them. You held your head high and slept in whenever you wanted to, always without fear of loss. Well, dear friends, the times have changed. The ingenious sages at ThinkGeek Labs(TM) have finally created the Ultimate weapon against snoozing - the SnūzNLūz(TM). People who enjoy sleeping in are cowering in fear all across the globe - it's finally true, when you snooze, you lose!
ThinkGeek, it sounds great! But how does it really work?
Glad you asked....it's quite simple actually. The SnūzNLūz uses the very complex psychological phenomemon known as 'HATRED'. Basically it's human nature to wish harm upon your enemies. Similarly, it's human nature not to give your enemies gobs of cash so that they can grow big and dominate the world with their totally wrong, stupid and invalid point of view. ThinkGeek realized that. That's why everytime you hit the snooze button, the SnūzNLūz will donate a specified amount of your real money to a non-profit you hate. The problem of sleeping in is solved.
She's got tons more stuff- paper graphics, illustrations and graphic design. I think I've found a new favorite.

However, something similar has apparently been on the market now for a few years, manufactured by a company called Litracon. It was invented in 2001 by a Hungarian guy named Aron Losonczi. It's made by combining optical fibers with fine concrete and also has the same strength as traditional concrete.
From the looks of it, they're manufactured differently. I'm not sure about the weight of Litracon. Either way, they're both pretty cool. And I'm sure there's more to come in this field.
Door Appendage X by James R. Ford. Maybe you'd put it on a door you didn't want people to go in. Impressively realistic. Reminds me a bit of a certain pair of salt and pepper shakers.
