Crazy things that should be called "Chindogu"

Let's use this forum as a site for posting products.....yes real products that are actually very close to Chindogu. For some reason however, they were able to break away from Chindogu and make it onto the mainstream market. Try to stick with "real" products that are for sale - not made up ones - if you can.Enjoy!

This is for real - has been around for years in the US. If you see someone with a very bad haircut, you can bet it was a Flobee job that did it.....

For people who are too (excuse my language here......) stupid to make a hamburger, here's the answer. Here we call this "Redneck Gourmet"

The ulitmative Tupperware SILBERZWIEBELFISCHER (sorry, no clue what this coulb be in English.. maybe something like pearl onion picker or so)

Adding up to what bloodymary just posted, there is also this wonderfully crazy German thing of "Eierstellensollbruchstellenverursacher"
It is basically a fancy item to make the shell of an egg crack in a systematic order.
Instead of just justing a knife or any other tool which is close at hand, this item could really be called a "Chindogu"

If you've ever flown United Airlines you may have seen a Sky Mall Catalog. Here's the link to their online product list. Some of these are just way too bizarre! I love the pet doorbell.

We own one of these. First time I saw the add - I thought it was the ultimate Chindogu. Thing works great and our cat loves to watch it spin while it's cleaning. It's like a toilet AND entertainment....now who can say that about a human bathroom??

okay, admittedly this is not a chindogu, but I just wanted to share this.. I almost fell of my chair "composing" a song.. just try it, if you don't know it already

I don't know if I should laugh or cry about this one.... yes this is a real product...no joke
