Fetid Monster Switch Plates
/fetid-monster-switchplates-5155.jpg "Fetid Monster Switchplates")
Mmm, switch plates that look good enough to eat! I crown artist Dogzilla Lives the Picasso of fetid monsters. Her polymer clay conglomerations of veiny eyeballs, gnarled teeth, and oozy epidermal layers make for terrifically disgusting switch covers that may just be the key to convincing the fine young lady chillin' on your couch it's time to turn the lights off. Plates are painted with acrylic, and both matte and gloss varnished. They fit standard sized flip switches, and come in several flavors of dismembered beast that, Dogzilla Lives points out, will also keep grubby little hands from messing with the damn lights.

Slap It Butt Lamp
I really appreciate how un-stuffy and...cheeky the Brits' sense of humor is. Sorry, humour. For example, I'd like to give whomever created this lamp a big slap on the back to show my admiration. And then a big approving...
Into the Woods Projection Light
Due to its being dramatic and showstopping and incredibly F'ing rad, Hilden & Diaz's Forms in Nature forest projection light sculpture has earned viral popularity this week. To the point that the artists are planning...

Fake Window Light
Natural sunlight is overrated, but slatted blinds and electroluminescent lighting are even more badass than their hype. Cash in on coolness, and brighten up your basement apartment or 10 x 15 cubicle with this simulated...

Tactical Bleeding Zombie Target
Target practice with human targets seems so cruel (although practical since most of the time it's other people that are getting shot). Why not practice drilling holes in things that are already dead and will probably...
Nessie Ladle
She waits. She lurks. She stalks. And then suddenly, out of the depths of my 8-quart stock pot, Nessie emerges. Oh the terror! The foreboding doom! The...hey, what's the Loch Ness Monster got in tow there? Is that a ladle...

Airlight Screw-in Ceiling Fan
I was going to open my discussion of the Airlight screw-in ceiling fan/light with a lightbulb joke, but in searching for the perfect one to relay I stumbled upon something even better: an entire Website devoted to lightbulb...
Maelstrom XM18 18,000 Lumen Spotlight
The Foursevens Maelstrom XM18 uses 18 Cree XM-L2 LEDs to blast out a blinding 18,000 lumens of light. Not an exaggeration. Think you'll shoot your eye out with a BB gun? Look into, or even sideways, at the XM18 and both...
