Bean Bag Onesie: Oh My God, Becky. Look at That Prank!

Posted on by

Each year ThinkGeek runs some of the most plausible products in its April Fools’ Day gags. We sort of love it and sort of hate it. The cool part each year for me is trying to figure out which of the pranks proves popular enough that the company will actually produce and sell it.

I’m calling it for this Sir Mix-a-lot approved Bean Bag Onesie. It sort of looks like a corn-fed Yoshi with a big ‘ol booty. The onesie has a bean bag chair attached to your butt, so you can just park it anywhere.

It might be perfect for all that time spent wishing you could just sit down when out shopping with your girlfriend when the single guy-chair outside the dressing room is already taken. Plus it would be embarrassing enough that she might just let you stay home. The gag listing says its $89.99, which would be cash well spent.

Westworld Armistice Snake Tattoo Doesn’t Look as Good on This Guy

Posted on by

One of the most iconic things from the first season of Westworld was the mysterious snake tattoo that wrapped around the body of Armistice. Now cosplayers looking to replicate her distinctive look can do the same with this full-body temporary tattoo from ThinkGeek.

Though unless you’re a fine physical specimen, you’re not gonna be able to pull it off as well as the mysterious and gorgeous Ingrid Bolsø Berdal. Plus, if the packaging is any indication, it looks like you’re gonna need some help putting this 20-piece tattoo on without making a mistake.

Oh, also, happy April Fools Day.

13 Funniest Pranks to Get for April Fools’ 2017

Posted on by
Prank Pregnancy TestPrank Pregnancy Test

The only way to make April Fools’ a special day is pulling a nice, funny and humiliating prank on someone. The solution to getting a good April 1 is on this list.

Whether your April Fools’ prank is elaborate or very straightforward, we’re pretty sure one of the items we handpicked for this list can come in quite handy, scary, smelly or simply useful.

Snakes in a Can Prank

A prank that’s older than time itself, but having the snakes flying out of a can of food remains one of the more effective way to “Get” people during April Fools’.

Prank Pregnancy Test

If you have a boyfriend or husband who isn’t really into having a baby at this time, using this pregnancy test would be the ultimate prank. You can also run it on a wife/girlfriend who has no interest in becoming a mother at this point in time.

Ultimate Prank Kit

Sometimes, you want to keep yourself busy during April Fools’, so buying one prank isn’t enough. Getting a whole kit worth of pranks is better: Blood capsules, itching powders, fart bombs, and many many more, for a whole day’s worth of ruining it for others.

Fake Parking Ticket

One of the most annoying things in existence is getting a parking ticket. Make someone’s day much worse (and yours better) by putting a fake parking ticket on the windshield of their car. If it’s a friend and you’re there to witness the reaction, even better.

iArm Prank

No, you’re not getting an iPad with this prank. It’s a mount with a fake tablet on it, so people will do a double or triple take when you walk by them. Besides the arm, there are also remoted, plates and other appliances to keep people guessing with this prank that doesn’t really harm anyone.

Purple Rain Prank

Less a prank and more of a vandalistic device, it creates a dark purple stain when mixed with water. The problem is it actually won’t come off certain things.

Embarrassing Package Prank

One awesome way of pranking your friends is making them feel embarrassed, especially if they live with their parents. Send them this embarrassing prank-package on April Fools’ to really make them feel special.

Fake Cockroaches Prank

Despite not really doing anything, roaches scare the living s*** out of us. And so, about a dozen of them would make an excellent/terrifying prank for April Fools’.

Fake Spider Prank

An intriguing box will always have someone trying to open it and reveal its secrets. That’s where the fake spider comes in, without making a fuss out of scaring people.

Liquid Ass: Fart Prank

I would love to be descriptive and imaginative in the words about this prank, but the title speaks for itself. Spread some awful fark smell to prank your friends, or simply make your friends feel sick.

Fake Scented Candles

Staying with the bad smells type of pranks, this one makes people think of a scented, fruity candle. They end getting a smell that’s much, much worse.

Fake Money Prank

It doesn’t need to much brainstorming to find a good prank that works with $10,000. Someone is going to be very disappointed this April Fools’.

Gift Box Prank

Not exactly a prank but more of a surprise: If you have a friend with a birthday being celebrated on April Fools’, this ToeTunes box serves as a way to disguise your gift.

Attack on Titan Colossus Lawn Ornament Will Eat Your Neighbors

Posted on by

April Fools day may be behind us, but that doesn’t mean we can’t continue to enjoy some late discoveries from the Internet’s favorite prank day. Among the many wacky items that turned up on ThinkGeek’s site yesterday is this one that I’d actually like to own.

titan_lawn_ornament_1zoom in

Yep, that’s a 25-foot-tall Colossal Titan from Attack on Titan. Simply inflate it and install, and you’ll send door-to-door solicitors running for the hills. Even if your neighbors are unfamiliar with the creepy Japanese manga, who wouldn’t cower in fear of a giant man stripped of his skin peering over your roof?

I’m very glad they went with the Titan form and not the human one. I can’t imagine an inflatable Bertholt Hoover being nearly as imposing.

ThinkGeek Useless Light Switch: Home Automation, Decepticon Style

Posted on by

April Fools’ Day is ThinkGeek’s Christmas. The company once again prepared several fake products for our amusement, with the best one being the Useless Light Switch. It’s like the useless machine, only it doesn’t just turn itself off, it takes down the light bulb with it.

thinkgeek_useless_light_switch_1zoom in

On one hand, it’ll help you save on electricity. On the other hand, you’ll find it funny for a minute and then you’ll re-install your old switch back, feeling like an idiot while doing so.

I was actually torn between this and the tiny Magic: The Gathering set, but the video won me over.

Pacman becomes playable on Google Maps for April’s Fools

Posted on by
Pacman Google Maps 1

Google always have the greatest April’s Fools pranks, and this year is no exception: tributing arcade classic Pacman, they’ve revamped the Google Maps interface and made it much, much more awesome.

When April Fool’s day rolls around, several companies seize the day and do something fun with their websites in order to “troll” their users with something. as the Internet is bombarded with Half-Life 3 news or funny stuff like a Walking Dead/ALF crossover, a few companies do something a bit more special and produced. Google, for example, have a history of changing interfaces in their services in order to add fun little details. This time around, the Google Maps team made Pac-Man playable by clicking the Pac-man icon as shown in the gif below:

ThinkGeek EnCounter Fitness Quest Giver: LARPwatch

Posted on by

Every year ThinkGeek comes up with an April Fools’ joke product that you want to be real. The EnCounter Wearable Interactive Quest is one of those ideas. It’s a fitness tracker that turns your movements and activities into tabletop RPG quests. It even has an A.I. dungeon master that narrates your adventures via a headset.

The device goes full dork with random encounters, which completely abandon its fitness metaphor and just gives you imaginary enemies to pretend fight. Fortunately (?), you can form a party with other EnCounter users.

I think most of the EnCounter’s features are doable with current technology, but I don’t think an A.I. can substitute for a good dungeon master. Come to think of it, a dial-a-dungeon master/narrator service would be great on its own.

This is the Ant Watch sold over at Analog Watch Company for $59. It comes with 5 real ants, some sand, a food/water dropper, tweezers, and a case opening tool.

Ant Watch Lets You Watch Ants

Posted on by

Watchmaker Analog Watch Co. takes advantage of the smartwatch craze to drum up some publicity with what is most probably an April Fools’ joke. It’s called the Ant Watch, a small ant farm in the shape of a wristwatch.

The watch supposedly comes as a ready to assemble kit that contains sand, a dropper for food and water and live harvester ants. Analog Watch Co. adds, “All orders come with an automatic 1 year supply of real ants, so we’ll ship a new batch to you every 4 months. If you don’t need them, you can always set them free!”

Note the release date before you organize a protest.
