Yes, that is an 800 pound bronze syringe bulb and yes, it’s being held by three angels. This eyesore statue was recently unveiled at a spa in the Caucasus Mountains of Russia, which is known for its numerous spas where “enemas with water from mineral springs help treat complaints.” A spokesman in the article is also quoted, “An enema is almost a symbol of our region.”
“Almost” a symbol… what happens when it officially becomes a symbol, are they going to turn it into some sort of fountain or enema themed water park?
There’s a huge bronze statue of Lenin in Fremont, Seattle, and it’s not the symbol of a communist neighborhood. Maybe it’s just a symbol of alcoholism, because I plan on getting drunk as a Russian there tonight! Happy Friday!

Everyone knows that a man needs multiple types of knuckles to deal with multiple types of situations. You have blast knuckles that allow you to break a cheek bone and shock the shit out of the somone all at the same time. You have lexan knuckles that will slide through a metal detector with the greatest of ease.
But what if you want to break a cheek bone and make someone try to scratch their own eyes out? In steps the pepper knuckles from designer Idan Arbel. I think the pepper knuckles give you the best options out of the three. You can either incapacitate the attacker from afar and then close in for the ass pummeling or you can beat them down with the knuckles and then give them a good dose of pepper spray just to ad insult to injury. Either way they are going to be sorry they fucked with you.
A Japanese company has developed a special T-shirt that is supposed to be strong enough to protect you from a slashing knife. Apparently the need for this T-shirt comes from an increase in knife-related attacks on children and convenience store workers in Japan. The shirt is still machine washable and about three times stronger than cotton. The Nihon Uni company is responsible for developing the shirts, which come in short sleeve and long-sleeve varieties, however the cost ranges from $190 to $522 for the short sleeves and $220 to $590 if you prefer the longer sleeves to protect your forearms.
At that cost, I think you’ve passed your break-even point. Consider saving that money for your health insurance co-pay and use the rest to go drinking while you’re recovering from your knifing. Not to mention, the knife-shirt’s mesh fabric can still be punctured by a sharp point, so unless you expect your attacker to only using slashing motions, you’re pretty much fucked either way.
Back in the days of the Wild West when some bandits were holed up in a building the law dogs would set the place on fire to smoke to criminals out. It has taken a 100 years or so but now you can accomplish the same thing without having to actually set anything on fire. I know it isn’t as much fun without the fire but it is slightly more cost effective than rebuilding.
Designed to be placed in stores or cars the Flash Fog uses a combination of smoke and a debilitating strobe light to confuse criminals and protect your shit.
“FlashFog is unique, with its extremely fast velocity fog that cloaks the area at an astonishing 17 square feet per second …and the simultaneous use of an awe-inspiring strobe light which multiplies the fog’s apparent density by three due to extreme glare. “
I couldn’t find pricing information on their web site but this thing is probably worth it just based on its prank value alone.
