TOKYOMANGO: Solid Alliance's Punching, Exploding USB Stress Relief Button

Solid Alliance's Punching, Exploding USB Stress Relief Button

I've featured a lot of weird USB gadgets on my blog, but this one's definitely the weirder of the weird. Called the USB Stress Button, this little thing has three modes: Explosion mode, Punch-out mode, and Worksheet mode. Every time you push the button, it alternates between these three. Put it in Explosion mode, and your computer screen starts counting down and then ends in a massive animated explosion; in Punch-out mode, a character's face appears on the screen, then hard core punching noises are accompanied by the quick destruction of his face; in Worksheet mode, a fake spreadsheet appears on your screen, making it look like you're really working when all you're doing is playing with this stupid little button.

Whatever mode you're in, it's bound to be great for stress relief. At least that's the idea.
