Oh snap! It’s a chair that lights up! I’m not saying it’s comfortable, but c’mon – it lights up! Generate sells this chair on their site for approximately $3,000. It’s a fiberglass chair, covered with fabric, and then with resin, which doesn’t sound to me like something you’d wanna watch the telle in for very long. Each chair is handmade, and the buyer can optionally specify which fabric to use. As you can see in the picture, you can get pretty wild with fabrics. While these chairs probably aren’t the most comfy, at least it’ll double as a table lamp I suppose. Hey, if light-up chairs are your thing, go for it.

What do you get when you cross a bike and a car? Well, you get a Rhoades Car of course! Another analogy that comes to mind is a paddle boat on wheels. These things can be ordered with a bunch of options. You can buy a one seater, two, or four. 6 speed, 36 speed, canopy, headlights, taillights, positive traction (4WD), electric assist, and even seatbelts are a few other things that can be added. All two and four seaters come with independent freewheels, which means that unlike most paddle boats (which are oh-so-fun), both people aren't forced to pedal at the same speed. While I couldn't imagine myself riding one of these to work or school, I can also think of many situations where they'd be ideal. These would be ideal for golf courses, large factories, places where cars are prohibited (Macinac Island), large parks, or even just taking a ride down town. Living in an area where cars rule the road and you will get tailgated for only going the speed limit, riding a bike on the sidewalk around here is the safest bet. That doesn't elude from the fact that dang, it would be cool to try one of these things out.

I have to be truthful; their website downright sucks (it reminds me so much of the 90's, I wanna puke), and the way they run their business online makes it kind of hard to buy one. There's a video on thier site, kind of like a commercial, and it almost makes you wanna go out and buy one for your grandma. I'm wondering how fast you can get one of these things to go personally, and it really looks like they've got some potential. Their website lacks very important details, such as prices, but I will tell you the prices start around a grand and a half. Considering these aren't quite massively produced, I think that's quite a good price for something so unique and versatile. If you want prices now, you have to give them your home and e-mail address. This is yet another thing that Kristoff would like for Christmas. He will like to lower the frame, hook it up with hydraulics, a bumpin system, and spinner rims. So I have to say, these things are pretty freakin cool, because I'm a 21st century hippy who doesn't smoke weed.

Tired of mowing the lawn, vacuuming the carpet, and fixing every darn thing that goes wrong with your house? Do you like to save money? The picture says it all. Yes, it's a house on wheels. Smaller than a conventional RV, these things are made to live in – all the time. While I don't personally think we're going to conquer the world of pollution by living in really freakin small houses, it'd be cool to walk into someone's bedroom, exclaim "your room is bigger than my whole house", and actually mean it.

You too can buy a new house for as little as $22,990. I wouldn't let him deliver it himself though, because it's gonna cost you $3 a mile. That would cost me approximately $7,428 from his place in California to mine in Michigan. Heck, you might as well drive there yourself, while hitting some motels on the way. On the way back, pull on over to a truck stop and sleep in your new house.

The houses come complete with a shower, toilet, sink, water heater, stove, a double burner, and bunking for 2. Needless to say, it's not a question of whether or not someone's gonna be on top, but rather a matter of who. Go to the site and tell me that ain't freakin cool.

Food costs money, and as Americans, or Canadians for that matter (Canada rocks!), we spend a lot of money on food. This guy, this freaking guy is going to eat monkey food for one week. At the time of this writing, he's at day 4, and still alive and kickin'.

"My theory is that monkeys are almost people, so monkey food is almost people food."

I'd give kudos to this man, but it'd be against the rules:

"Officially all of my nutrition is going to come from monkey chow. I'm allowing myself to drink water, obviously to stay alive, black coffee to stay awake, and vodka to help me fall asleep."

Vodka rocks, and I wouldn't want to cut that out of my daily regimen either. I'm glad he has his priorities straight. I have googled for this monkey chow, and it runs for about $30 for 20 lbs. He said at this rate he could probably save about $600 a month by not wasting it all on food, appliances, and electricity. As I'm currently thinking about moving out and getting an apartment of my own, the subject of saving money interests me greatly.

This here proves that yes, Canadians are superbeings. So, if this guy doesn't die on us, do you think I too should give it a shot?

TOMATOES! Tomatoes?! I don't care if you don't like them. It's freakin cool if you can grow anything upside down. Hammacher Schlemmer sells an Upside-Down Tomato Garden. Admittedly, I've seen products like this before and I haven't told you about them. For about $17, you can buy yourself a Topsy Turvy instead, but the aesthetics and ability to plant things on top make the nearly $70 latter option viable for those who don't have a place to hang stuff. I too like inexpensive things, but I also believe that things should just look cool. By growing certain fruits upside down (yes, tomatoes ARE a fruit remember), the chances of rot from sitting on soil is virtually eliminated. There are probably other practical reasons for growing stuff upside down, but I don't think any of them compare to the excitement when your friends exclaim "Holy crap! That's freakin awesome!".
