    What is the strangest thing you ever bought. I was just looking at iwantoneofthose.com . It should be called whowouldwantoneofthose.com. I mean look at the crap they are selling...
    a gyroscopic arm strengthener and a
    an airzooka, a thing that blows air at you for no apparant reason. Weird or what!

    Was bought for me:
    Penguin swizzle stick (for making foamed milk for cappuchinos). When in use it looks rather obscene...

    The airzooka would be fun if it worked well but it probably doesn't.

    I dunno what the strangest thing I've bought is. Maybe this stupid plastic fish that curled up in your hand depending on how hot it was. I never have had enough money to waste much on useless crap.

    an acre of the moon
    It was for a farming friend who was always complaining that land was too dear, there was never any for sale near him. (I told him he could at least see this acre)
    Had quite a laugh about it at the tim

    Once bought 60 pokemon movie soundtrack CDs. All in the name of a bit of profit, had to go to 4 cd shops to get them all. Strange enough though


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,070 ✭✭✭hedgetrimmer


    Somebody bought me a novelty snowman condon, complete with nose and twiggy arms...very odd (and, I'd imagine, unusable).

    Oddest thing I bought recently is probably an action figure of Albert Einstein, complete with chalk-arm action.:D

    One of those inflateable aliens you see at concerts sometimes. For the life of me i can't remember why...:dunno:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,319 ✭✭✭sci0x


    I havnt bought this but it just another strange thing a person could buy. Its a Lightning Reaction.

    "Simply confirm the number of players, depress the circular panel in the centre and listen as it glows red and the air fills with the wail of a banshee. A green light signifies the All Clear and then the reaction race begins. The victim isn't chosen randomly – the last person to press the button on their receiver suffers the sizzling - but when you're laughing at someone else's misfortune, just remember, the next electric shock might have your name on it!"

    I was playing that new years eve, brialliant! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,738 ✭✭✭Barry Aldwell


    I was given Lightning Reacton for christmas. I have yet to find someone drunk enough to try it on, though.

    A pump action ping pong ball gun.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,319 ✭✭✭sci0x


    I think the Shocking Roulette is the best though.

    "Up to four people can play at a time and all they have to do is slot their finger into a receptor, press the button and… wait! Tick, tick, tick, the noise of a ball bouncing between the grooves on a roulette wheel begins to slow down; the red flashing lights take on a menacing rhythm and suddenly… BAM a jolt of electricity surges through someone's finger."
