No sooner does some company come out with the “Wiings” to humiliate and embarrass Wii owners than another company decides to one-up them in the stupidity stakes with…an inflatable race car.
Seriously, those Wii wings? They came to light last week and there’s already a lower place you can go in the failure pile that is Wii peripherals. Last week, people. We can’t wait for next week, when we’ve got little doubt that some even more awful piece of cheap plastic crap is waiting to drive everyone insane. And what really scares us is there’s some guy, out there, collecting all of this stuff. You know he is. He’s the guy who dreams of a five-second spot on the news because of his “wacky collection”, laboring under the wrongheaded impression that being on TV will get him closer to touching boob.
Anyway, there’s a video of a mannequin and a douche trying to sell Wii owners on this. We include it not because it’s funny, but because you’ve never seen the fires of life die so quickly in the eyes of a model.

From NewScientist.com:
"A GIANT inflatable tower could carry people to the edge of space without the need for a rocket, and could be completed much sooner than a cable-based space elevator, its proponents claim."
"Tourists could get a view almost like that from space, but without the difficulties of coping with zero gravity."
I'm sure it sounds sillier than it is - all I can think of is bouncy castles stacked on top of each other Jenga-style. Not sure I'd fancy going even two metres up, let alone two hundred thousand!

Browsing through the bargains posted on HotUKdeals earlier I came across something a little peculiar - an inflatable football pitch!
For the money, it's £25 normally - but with codes it can be had for £15, you get goal posts with netting and side walls. Sadly, you have to provide your own grass.
Interestingly, there's a whole industry dedicated to inflatable sports arenas - or so my Google search on the subject would have me believe. However, no sign of an inflatable ice rink this far...Browsing through the bargains posted on HotUKdeals earlier I came across something a... more

An inflatable dog turd the size of a house has blown away from a modern art exhibition in a Swiss museum before bringing down an electricity line and smashing a greenhouse window.
"Complex Shit", a sculpture by the American artist Paul McCarthy, cast loose its moorings and was lifted by a sudden gust of wind from the Paul Klee centre in Berne and carried 200 yards to eventually make landfall in the grounds of a children's home.
Museum authorities said the work had an automatic safety device that was supposed to make it deflate in the event of a storm - but it failed to operate. An inflatable dog turd the size of a house has blown away from a modern art exhibition... more

Three coastguard teams, a lifeboat and a helicopter from RAF Lossiemouth were dispatched to the scene, but the crashed wreckage turned out to be two 3ft-long deflated penguin balloons.A major rescue operation was launched in northern Scotland yesterday after reports of... more

Anytime I think of sleeping at the office I can't help but remember the episode of Seinfeld where George has a carpenter make the underside of his desk roomier and installs a shelf. If you don't have to be so conspicuous with your sleeping habits at the office you may want to look towards the Nappak, the inflatable sleeping quarters. While it's rolled up when not in use, the Nappak takes up very little room, but inflate this unit up and expect it to take up a big chunk of your office, or your entire cubicle.
The large nature of this and the fact it includes wheels when rolled up is definitely peculiar. Expect to have a slumber party in this thing, rolling it from cube to cube? Well, I guess that would work if you have a really relaxed office environment. Anytime I think of sleeping at the office I can't help but remember the episode... more
