Twist caps, now with flavor
Here’s another one of those ideas that is so simple it’s amazing no one has come up with it before. It’s actually the work of a genius. It’s a plastic bottle with a special cap that holds 1.4 grams of a powder, like powdered green tea for instance. It’s released into the water below when it’s twisted open. So, you can mix fresh powdered drinks from a standalone bottle that you buy at the store.

I know, I know. In a way it’s pointless. Powder doesn’t need to be fresh and you can already buy your drinks premixed. But it’s just the kind of cool thing we would have seen Marty McFly do in the future.(Had the writers thought of it.) I see more of a future in using the caps with bottles you already reuse so you can have something on the go, when you need it.

GPS system with breathalyzer
GPS navigation systems are a dime a dozen, but this one can tell whether you’re drunk or not. One thing. If you need this to tell you when you’ve had too much to drink, you obviously drink way too much. The G400 GPS navigation system features an integrated alcohol sensor on the side and it can tell how much alcohol per liter is in your blood.

If vehicle manufacturers are able to make use of this GPS navigation system in the future, and stop the vehicle from starting with a drunk driver at the wheel, this could save many lives. The G400 should be available in the U.S. very soon, right now it’s available in Portugal.

Kool-Aid scented Reebok sneakers

Kool-Aid scented Reebok sneakers
We first told you about this bizarre combo in early January on our sister site Poptherapy. It should be noted that this hybrid of powder flavored drink aka liquid crack, combined with sneaker is completely unnatural and I am now more convinced then ever that the apocalypse is among us.

Do you really want your feet to smell like various Kool-Aid flavors? If you wear them in the rain, will you create magical Kool-Aid puddles as you walk? I have no idea. I’m still too perplexed by the whole thing. I kinda wish the Kool-Aid guy would crash through my wall so I could ask him about this. Then I would sue that fat wet bastard for all his sneaker money. He broke my wall!
