Euro Gear: LaFraise Tees

Euro design enthusiasts/tee-pushers La Fraise're celebrating their newly available N. American shipping with dozens of fresh shirts and a contest handing 15,000 sweet, sweet Euros to the winning design; vote for what you dig, or just buy previous submissions, from a boombox-headed deer posing in front of a burning forest, to one with a Raging Bull-repping "You Funk My Life", to a cartoonish mosaic entitled "Russian Stuff", featuring a broken beer bottle, brass knuckles, pistol, and dagger print, probably because they were easier to silk-screen than depression and alcoholism.

There are some seriously rad designs at LaFraise.com

Search: OneRiot

A counter to Google, Riot touts itself as "a realtime search engine" that scrawls the viral web (Twitter, Digg, etc) and indexes results based on their current popularity and relevance to spit back the freshest, most buzzed-about links. On its homepage, it also curates links to the hottest current topics in politics, sports, business, music, TV, tech, and celebrity, but if you really want to know what's going on with Pauly Shore these days, you might have better luck just going into your garage and waking him up.

Dry Off: Kilt Beach Towel

Catch some sun on this 100% cotton tartan beach towel that looks like a traditional Scottish kilt when wrapped around your waist, complete with printed belt/sporran (the little hanging pouch in front), and's promised to be "a big hit at parties and parades", as long as you use a real belt to keep your own hanging pouch from joining the procession.

Your Pokémon towel is getting ratty, it's time for a new one

Get Bigger: Mimo Mini USB Monitor

Requiring no additional power cord or video card, this ultra-thin, way-portable 7" USB-powered monitor lets you painlessly add a second screen to your computer; use it vertically or horizontally to clear up desktop space by offloading tasks like spreadsheet-making, managing emails, or watching videos/IMing while you should be spreadsheet-making and managing emails.

Classified Horror: You Suck At Craigslist

Highlighting choice failures from the classifieds behemoth, YSaC offers up real Craigs postings ripe for snarky commentary, including someone trying to pawn off an adult-size Spiderman for use as a "decoy when you are not home", a frantic furniture ad posted with the title "BED BUGS ARE BACK!!!", and a couple desperately hoping to spice things up by pinning down a female "acrobactial midget...must be athletic or at least willing to do atheletic things like gymnastics and poses...must like dogs and mexican hats" -- actually, these people sound really good at Craigslist.

In the market for a "Missionary Style CD storage cabinet"? There's one at YouSuckatCraigslist.com
