The "Dude, I Want That!!" Thread

There's a site called A Web Magazine For People Who Like Stuff - DudeIWantThat.com, which shows off all of these crazy and ingenious gadgets and novelties, that you don't really see very often - if at all. It got me to wondering how many other crazy, obscure items are out there, that people would just look at and say "OMG DUDE I WANT THAT!" So post some of your own. They don't have to be from the DIWT website, of course. They can come from anywhere. The weirder (and more useful), the better!

I loved this one:

And holy crap!

Heh. Thanks, but I guess it's just the default, since I just finally decided to see what the Executive Plus thing was all about. Gonna do some fooling around with it, but I may go back to the blue. Dunno. :P

I can't think of anything bad to say about this product. It's not particularly inspired (it's just a plate with an extra level for syrup to pool into) but it does exactly what it is supposed to do. And it's certainly something that is needed. Those damn pancakes will soak the main good thing about eating pancakes up before you get to slurp that sugary, sticky, maple nectar down.

That would be awesome, if it was a little more hardcore. Like if it was a loud 'alert' type of alarm sound, and the gun was louder. Maybe with some blowback action for realism. Haha. I would pay good money for that.

I believe the stats in this video are more theory than anything else - provided this thing can even stay off the ground - but as concept vehicles go, I WANT THIS.

Why does that guy's voice sound so awkward? It's almost like he has an accent he's trying to suppress.

Dude, I want experiences, not material possessions. Unless those material possessions happen to be LSD, weed, peyote, magic mushrooms, etc. Otherwise they get old fast. Oh yeah, pets are awesome too.

Totally not the point of the thread (neither is it to advocate materialism - just celebrating the innovation that goes into such unique and useful gadgets), but I'll allow it, because someone was bound to say it, sooner or later. :chuckle:

Oh god yes.... Sexy TRON Outfit - DudeIWantThat.com

:drool:

[Edit: Although I just now realized how skimpy that Tron outfit actually was. Lol. Yowza.]

Holy shit that's a lot of comic books.

Yeah, at first I thought the Tron outfit was opaque and skin coloured, then I realised it wasn't, then I started feeling lesbian for a few seconds, lol.

I've been on that coaster a few times! (And the one in the background even more times). Season passes are pretty much amazing when you live close enough to enjoy them!

Some people are turning it into that, but I think O's original intent was just to post really cool odd things. I'd say it were celebrating materialism if the point were to post expensive cars, purses, etc.

I'm not trying to put down some good ole celebration of materialism in and of itself. Shit, even Burning Man is partially a celebration of materialism in that one major aspect of it is to manifest your imagination by building or bringing the most awesome shit possible. (It just frowns on consumerism)

Holy crap I was just talking about how much I wanted a bed that rocked, and that they should make rocking beds for adults. I'm not sure about this particular design, but it's cool that someone thought about it and made one. I'd want a bed that rocks/swings side to side (like a hammock), not front to back like that. The side to side rocking motion mimics natural physiological neuronal excitation during various transition states such as entering sleep. It's so incredibly relaxing. Maybe I should just find a way to rig a hammock in my room, I have plenty of room for it and really high ceilings...hmm.

The Rocking Bed - DudeIWantThat.com

Oh hell yes!
I've been seriously contemplating rigging a hammock up in my room too. They're really the most relaxing way to sleep.
I'd never thought about that rocking/floating side to side feeling being mimicked by hammocks/rocking beds before. Makes a lot of sense though.

In a normal bed, I've been finding more and more that it always feels like I'm restricting blood flow to some area no matter which position I sleep in. The only way is on my back, but it's really hard to sleep like that for me.

I've been having that same problem lately. I wonder what is causing it? I also find it difficult to sleep on my back, plus I'm more akin to have bad SP episodes on my back. Maybe I just need to be healthier, work out more, take less medication or something.

I think this thread would appreciate vsauces Lut series, whole series of videos showing off cool gadgets.
