Valentine’s Day Magnets Favour the Strongly Sensitive Type

Elaine Chow — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 07:00:00 +0000

Looking for something to decorate your fridge with this V-Day, here’s magnets of men weeping. Maybe it’s just me, but if I really wanted to see grown arse men cry, I’d just start dating again.

Workflow Charts Finally Put to Good Use Show Fundamental Men vs Women Differences

Jesus Diaz — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 12:20:00 +0000

It’s Friday. You are the office, watching another Powerpoint by Jimmy, the product development bozo. “Stupid Jimmy,” you think, “these are the only three workflow charts we need after this long work week.” UPDATED

Now my question is: Is it really this way? Because one of the most delightful, smartest, and sexiest woman I’ve ever met was drunk after three hours in a bar drinking beer with orange slices in it, while that night I was drunk with cocktails and my drinks matched my shoes. And I pee sitting down. At least at home, because it’s more comfy, but that’s another story.

Women. Men. TS/TVs. Speak. [Thanks Oscar]

Update: It gets better.

The Swerve Disposable Razor Makes Quick Work of Beastly Neck and Back Hair

Sean Fallon — Mon, 15 Dec 2008 23:40:00 +0000

This isn’t the 70’s anymore guys. Excessive body hair and gold medallions are no longer acceptable. There are gadgets out there designed to handle the job, but the Swerve provides a more ergonomic solution.

The Swerve is billed as the world’s first “full body groomtool,” but we know better. By the looks of things in the terrifying video above, getting into the truly hard to reach areas in the middle of the back is not going to be an easy task (unless you are a contortionist). Besides, these disposable razors are waaay to expensive at $US5 for a single and $US13 for a 3-pack. [Swerve via Shaving Stuff and Boing Boing Gadgets]

Man Bra Keeps Your Moobs In Check

Elaine Chow — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 03:00:01 +0000

I’ve been staring at this ad for hours and I still can’t really figure out who Japanese company Wish Room’s Man Bra (or, as Seinfeld fans would probably call it, The Bro) is for. Drag queens unsatisfied with the options at their local Victoria’s Secret? Dudes with a fear of nipple chaffing? Kevin James? Either way, this manssiere is promising to make you feel just as purdy as the vaguely Russian-looking man modelling for them. Considering he’s not even wearing one, I wonder if he has any idea what he’s posing for. [Wish Room via Gizmodo Japan]

Shocking News: Dudes Like the Internet More Than Ladies

Adam Frucci — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 15:50:00 +0000

A new study on the “Happiness Index” polled 8,500 Australians aged 18-64, and it found that for men, they were happiest while on the internet. For women, on the other hand, they were made the most happy while spending quality time with the family. I can’t see how the discrepancy could cause any relationship problems.

Unsurprisingly, exercise is what made people the most unhappy from either gender. Men also were made more happy by “being intimate with another person” than women, while women were more likely to find happiness in pets. And everyone likes relaxing. What an illuminating survey!

What Would Chicks Do for a Klondike Bar? Give Up Their Password

Matt Buchanan — Wed, 16 Apr 2008 18:20:00 +0000

I thought that the whole chicks would do anything for chocolate stereotype was just, you know, a stereotype, but vaguely scientific market research proves it’s true! Infosecurity Europe went around posing as marketers, offering people chocolate bars in exchange for their computer passwords, and 45 percent of the women gave it up like prom night. Only 10 percent of the dudes went for it. Of course, it’s totally possible the women were actually more conniving in their desire for the chocolate, and they all just lied about their password, while only 10 percent of the guys were able to devise such a clever ruse. I mean, that’s what I would’ve done. [McSolutions via The Raw Feed]

Dream Lover 2000 Keeps That Dawg on a Shocking Leash

Seamus Byrne — Tue, 14 Aug 2007 15:30:00 +0000

This “male management and boyfriend training unit” is an add-on to that CB-3000 male chastity belt that attaches to a submissive male’s member, keeping it, and him, out of harm’s way or out of anybody else’s pants. This Dream Lover 2000 add-on takes it a step further, letting the poor sap’s mistress remotely administer shocks, keeping him in line and punishing him as much as he so richly deserves.

Here’s the Dream Lover 2000 remote control unit, letting you give the guy a warning, or you can go ahead with the shocks to keep that schlong where it belongs. You can even decide if it makes an annoying beeping noise or not, adding to the overall unpleasantness. But geez, this thing must hurt. [Dream Lover 2000]

A Place For Men to Park their Manhood

Not being exactly equipped to pass judgement on this fine piece of furniture, perhaps I should leave it to you lot in the comments. [Random Good Stuff]
