Geek Leak lets you relieve yourself anywhere

geek_leak

There are just those times when you’re so incredibly wrapped up in what you’re doing on your computer that you couldn’t possibly take a break to take a quick leak.  That’s where this Geek Leak comes in handy.  Instead of making that inconvenient trip to the bathroom, just keep the Geek Leak near your desk and you can do your business at the computer.  Of course right now this is just a very funny picture someone created, so you’re stuck with coke bottles for now.

Gun Fan keeps you cool in style

gunfan

Instead of cooling off with some ridiculous handheld fan, you need something with more of an edge.  Thankfully someone has created this Gun Fan.  It’ll make you look a little more tough when it’s excessively hot outside.  The small white fan is made out of ABS plastic and features soft blades.  It’ll require AAA batteries to keep up and running.  You can purchase the Gun Fan for $5 through Kikkerland.

Classic Mac turned into iPad dock

macintosh_ipad_mod

Well you finally got yourself the latest and greatest in Apple technology, but the iPad is so large that none of the small holders will work to hold it upright.  Sure, you could just purchase a cheap new accessory or you could get creative.  Take your very old outdated classic Mac and turn it into a dock.  Sure, it’ll make you look incredibly behind in the times, but you’ll get to remember the retro technology from not so long ago.  You won’t be able to purchase this one, so you’ll have to get busy and make one yourself if you’re interested.
