And I’m sure that big-ass bottle from 1899 was only like 5¢ while we’re paying up to $1.50 for the tiny-ass bottles. And the old bottles were also filled with cocaine!!!

It’s a mouse trap and a coffin, all in one!

Someone should make a less lethal, but equally effective version of this for annoying kids at the mall.

This package was developed to solve the problem of neatly disposing of caught vermin by building the trap itself into a mini, rodent-sized coffin. With a simple slogan atop the box (Oh My God! Mouse Trap) the container can be opened using the lid… or not, for the more squeamish pest catchers among us.

Pizza Box of the Future!

By brownkidd on April 29th, 2009 in LOL

I wasn’t initially going to post this because I thought to myself “this is fucking stupid,” but then I thought “mmmm… pizza.” The concept isn’t that bad either, but what if I only order a medium pizza for two? I can’t just tear off two plates from the box. You actually expect me to use real plates? Fuck you, pizza-box-of-the-future inventors! Go back to the drawing board.

Realistic Juice Box Packages

Japanese industrial designer Naoto Fukasawa created these juice boxes with realistic textures that look and feel just the like the fruit inside.

“I imagined that if the surface of the package imitated the colour and texture of the fruit skin, then the object would reproduce the feeling of the real skin.”
