Computer Poltergiest Prankster USB

by Jay Garrett on October 13, 2009

usb-pranksterIf you like to freak out your partner of irritate your workmates then this simple USB device will be right up your street.

Just sling it into the victims puter and it’ll turn caps lock on and off, make random mouse movements, type out random text and generally be very annoying.

Handily, the Prankster features a time delay setting, so that after installing it, you can make your getaway safely before it starts misbehaving.

The Prankster is highly annoying, but it’ll never activate the Enter key or close or save documents, so it’s mostly mischievous, not super-dangerous.

That is unless the victim gets so fed up they restart their machine without saving…. but then it’s still their fault right? ;)

Features:

Get the USB Computer Prankster from Thumbs Up website for £19.99

Trisaksri Ghost Repellent Soon On Sale

by Jay Garrett on March 13, 2009

trisaksri-1If you’re fed up of things going bump in the night, getting a chill when you get to the top of the stairs or afraid of going into the basement alone here is a solution that’s not calling Ghostbusters!

Supa Boondee shop are ready to help get rid of that spectre, spook or spirit.

How about the Trisaksri Ghost repellent?

All you have to do is flick the switch into the “On” position and it will go and start to detect ghosts with a low level magnetic field and a camera.

This “invisible picture” completes a circuit that results in a “Wave Killer” radio wave blast that should drive ghosts and disembodied spirits back to whence they came.

For some unknown reason Supa Boondee is having to think whether or not to go ahead with a full-scale launch of the product.

Why?

But, don’t fret,  a prototype will hit eBay in a couple of weeks.

If you’re being hassled by Vampires……….well, that’s a different story ;)
