We like to take pride in the off-the-beaten-track items from our gift lists, but this year's Ultimate Design Gift Guide has some crazier shit than normal. If you're shopping for something a little twisted, or better, shopping for someone a little twisted, you'll want to start here:
Momspit
$9 for 2oz, $18 for 7oz
For all those germy Mama's boys out there. You know who you are.
Wrenchware
$17.99
For the (mechanical) people you love who love to eat on the job, wrenchware is the way to go. 18/10 polished stainless steel, we're going to assume these are dishwasher-, and garage bay-safe.
Animal Scale
35 Euro
What animal do you weigh? Card copy idea: "I'm a swan. You're a cow. I still love you."
Candle Carver
$12.98
Turn any apple into a votive holder with this candle carver from Lillian Vernon. Brilliant.
Mirror angle scope
$50
Budding ethnographers will appreciate the ability to shoot sideways in the wild with this device, breaking the monotony of those mall intercepts to, well, photograph the other researchers, I guess. You get the idea though--probably you're not supposed to be doing what this device allows you to do.
Sportscope Cubicle Periscope
$49.99
I spy with my periscoped eye you playing Minesweeper you lazy bastard!
Fully Committed ID Tattoo
$77 (at least!)
Okay, we definitely think you should spend more than 77 bucks on a tattoo (depending on complexity, of course), but we like the spirit of the Craftsman Tool on the forearm. And if you're 100% fully-committed, then this 77 on the neck is a nice touch. (No Photoshop here, honest.)
