From the “Unusual Gifts” file
It’s summertime. It’s hot and sticky. People all around you can really get on your nerves.
At any time. Any place. And for any reason.
It’s a perfect time to get revenge.
Actually, it’s the perfect time to get someone a gift from the “Revenge” online store. The site, located in Germany, calls itself “Europe’s Funniest Online Shop”.
Among the categories you can choose from on the site: Gifts for Women, Gifts for Men, Divorce Gifts, Summer Gifts, Party Games, Gifts From The Heart and something called Bad Taste Bears.
As you might imagine, some of the items are cute – and others are anything but.
Take, for instance, one gift idea that has received a recent online mention. It’s a Water Soluble Bikini.
According to the product description the bikini “seems to be a normal swmsuit but after 3 minutes of contact with water – it will fall to pieces!”
(You may insert your own punchline here!)
It’s constructed of “80% Polyamid and 20% Elasthan” (sounds fishy to me) and sells for 10 euros (plus shipping). For the record, size 34 suits come with a string top. All other sizes look like normal swimsuits.
Who knows? Giving one of these as a gag gift could be grounds for a lawsuit.
At lot safer gift idea is the new Frosted Pop Tart iPhone Sleeve from a Website called Barry’s Farm located in Champaign, Illinois.
This $20 case really does look like a frosted Pop Tart in the picture – complete with multi-colored sprinkles.
Almost good enough to eat! Almost.
There are also other adorable iPhone and laptop sleeves, pencil cases, totes and card wallets. Prices range from $5 to $50.
