Every once in a while, you run across something for sale that is so astonishing that you feel compelled to joke about it with your friends, even while you’re secretly wishing that someone – anyone! – would buy it for you. Here’s a handful of bizarrely cool products that you’re sure to guiltily covet.
Dream a little dream of faith
Designed to keep your children safe and secure while they sleep, these Armor of God pajama sets include a helmet of salvation, a shield of faith pillow and a pajama top with a breastplate of righteousness and a belt-of-truth hem. $49.95. ARMOROFGODPJS.COM
Jump-start suds
If your need for cleanliness is causing heart-stopping delays in your morning caffeine consumption, solve the problem with Shower Shock, a soap that contains 200 milligrams of caffeine per lather – or 2 1/2 times the amount in a Red Bull. While some scientists are skeptical that the caffeine can be absorbed directly into the skin, users report a wide-awake feeling akin to that first jolt of morning java. $6.99. THINKGEEK.COM
Sidelit shades offer a rosier view
Invented by a New York psychotherapist, NeuView sunglasses are made with little side windows that can be raised to allow light into your extreme right or left visual field. The theory is that we tend to use one side of the brain more than the other, so shining light into the neglected side stimulates it and makes us “whole brain thinkers.” The glasses supposedly enhance the wearer’s sense of well being, help relieve stress and anger, and even improve your golf game. $67.50.
