THE BEST USB DRIVE EVAR!! (flash video.) Via here and here.

Except that its not a USB drive, it has no storage, just a humpadelic action. But it is pretty funny.

How soon until someone makes a hot chick one of these? Hell, whole pron recreations with USB power?

I do love this funny, funky world!

High-tech wind-up toy. Really, I like it.

Not a USB drive? Bummer, man. I was really hoping each, uh, thrust indicated data transfer or something.

arto, write up a business plan and I will happily become an investor! As long as the first model is Jenna Jameson and it can talk or, at least, moan.

Meh.

And also, worst use of the batshitinsane tag ever.

In retrospect, and learning that it's not actually a storage drive, you're probably right. Removed.

Perhaps somewhat ironically, on learning that it's not actually a storage drive, I would like to remove my 'Meh' and replace it with a 'Heh.'

Exactly my point!

Also, I'm not sure if that comment is eponysterical or not. Sean Connery in red leather short-shorts is pretty doomed, though.

I guess there'll be a lot more USB-powered gags in the future.. And eventually some semi-talented 'artist' will make USB-powered sculptures?

Meh. More fodder for the landfills.

There's this idea I like to see made. Inflatable UBC drives, wowie!

I couldn't look away.

Until I did.

Here y'go, loq - you've bagged yourself an Atari 2600 with a copy of Custer's Revenge. Though the 3DO was given away earlier, you can still have the Plumbers Don't Wear Ties disc for that system.

Sweet!! I've been looking for that cart for years and years, and, well, any functioning 2600 is a welcome addition to the morgue.

Is joke. I do not collect old console systems, but I have had friends who do so in a most upsettingly unwholesome and maniacal manner. However, I do run a small but warm and welcoming home for handheld computers of all vintages.

Well, damn, would you look at that? I ask and its already been deliverd.

Sweet edible bootliners! We are doomed.

The YouTube version pixellates the -- err, metal piece that fits in the USB slot. (WTF do you call that anyway?) That's funny, in a meta-reference to YouTube NSFW standards. I think.

A dongle?

What'd I say? Dongle. Dongle. Dongle. Doggle?

It's pixellated as a joke. In Japan, they pixellate the genetalia on all porn.
posted by wfc123 at 9:06 AM on December 13, 2006

I always just thought Japanese people had a blur cloud where their genitals were. Thanks for clearing that up, wfc123!

They'd only be limited by the 500mA available on the bus.

I think I've found a use for that 32MB memory stick I've got sitting on my desk.

Also, this page has three versions of the humpin' dog AND a Chameleon with CrAzY eYeS (scroll down).
posted by fenriq at 12:16 PM on December 13, 2006

That Chameleon would be nifty if you could program it to react to system events. IE: instead of the warning bong the lizard goes crazy.

This isn't funny, so I'm going to assume it's guerilla marketing. I will be walking down the street tomorrow and suddenly, without warning, I will crave mountain dew.

That USB twig site is creepy. They sell hats made of human hair! Some other products are hilarious, some NSFW. (Not to derail though.)

And then there's news of the USB Octopus that pulses blue during data transfers.
