The List

Gear: OntFront Hooded Blazer

Available in pinstriped black or white, this fully tailored, satin-lined jacket features a hood with embroidered headphone design and gold-plated 3.5mm plugs on the drawstrings, so whether you're at a fancy gala, or lurking on a street corner, you can pretend not to hear people making fun of the inappropriate half of your outfit.

Gear: Balkan Tango Budapest "L"

Designed for 15" laptops, the Budapest has a zippered exterior/two interior pockets, an adjustable shoulder strap, and is waterproof/machine washable as it's made from scavenged bicycle innertubes -- making the biggest deduction on Balkan Tango's IRS form "thumbtacks".

Job Saver: StealthSwitch

Instantly minimize your computer's current window, all windows, or only predetermined ones, with a click of this foot-pedal-style mouse; also comes with a "30 Day Risk Free Trial" (apparently, Stealth doesn't consider a nonfunctioning Switch costing you your job a "risk").

Furniture: Please Touch Thermosensitive Pillows

These Hypercolor-esque cushions respond to body heat by changing colors (black to blue, red to violet, burgundy to purple), leaving behind both handprints, and irrefutable evidence of nude lounging.

More Failure: Fail Blog

Now featuring embedded videos, the classic site of ironic failed intentions'll occupy hours of your time with "Pussy" scented air fresheners and "Child Predator Hands" Halloween costumes.
