The Toastabags (Firebox, $9.95) may not look like much, but they are your ticket to tasty meals with minimal effort on your part. I’ll admit it, the thought of cooking my meals inside a tiny rubber bag is a little perplexing. Perhaps even stranger is the idea that I’m supposed to stick this rubber bag inside my toaster, but you’d be surprised with the results. Basically, these little bags allow you to heat up just about anything you want, provided that it fits inside a toaster – except liquids, but why would you heat up liquids in a toaster anyways? It’s kinda like microwaving except that your food isn’t all mushy, and it’s similar to a toaster oven but without all the mess. You can easy make grilled cheese or Panini-type sandwiches using this method. You can also heat up your leftovers, maybe some chicken and corn, and have a hot and crispy meal. Each bag can be used approximately 50 times and since you get four bags, it’s a pretty sweet deal at this price.

Just think about all the meals your lazy ass could create with such an amazing piece of technology. Remember when you were in college and all you had to cook your meals within the confines of your dorm room was a hot pot? I bet you can almost feel the excitement you got with each new recipe you created. Perhaps you long to feel that spine-tingling sensation once again…

Now, I’ve never wallpapered either, but I’m thinking of starting with the Graham and Brown Taylor & Wood Frames Wallpaper (Design Public, $40.00). I mean, if you look at a lot of wallpapers, they’re pretty boring. In fact, they’re probably as lame as looking at four log walls all day long. Why even bother getting wallpaper if you’re just gonna get traditional little flowers or stripes? No, I want something different, you know? I want something fun, something that I can change at a moment’s notice without having to tear it down or paint over it. That’s where this wallpaper comes in – you’re constantly able to customize it whenever the whim strikes you. It’s covered with outlines of picture frames, so you can stick pictures all over your wall, put up excerpts from your favorite stories, or even just draw a picture, if you’re so inclined. And because it’s just a black and white template, it’s guaranteed to go with your decor. What happens if you draw something and you hate it about a month later? Not an issue, just put a picture over it.

Even if you suck at drawing and all things artistically related, you can look awesome and creative with little to no effort on your part. I mean, there’s nothing women love more than an artist. Well, except a guitar player, but this wallpaper can’t help you with that so you better get practicing.

With the Survival Straps Survival Bracelet (ThinkGeek, $19.99), you could be prepared for any disastrously situation that may come your way. While it looks any other leather cord bracelet that so many young fashionistas are sporting today, this bracelet is different. Sure, you can wear it around as a fashion statement, but if your safety suddenly becomes compromised, you’ll be ready. This bracelet unravels into 14 feet of 550lb tested paracord, which just might save your life. What’s that girl, Timmy stuck in the well again? No problem! All you have to do is undo your magic bracelet and you’ve got a super strong rope to throw down into that well and pull Timmy out. Did you bank heist all go terribly wrong when the cops showed up and blocked off your escape route? Piece of cake! Just swing this paracord up to your friend on the roof and you’ll be scaling that wall in no time. What’s even better is that if you use your bracelet in a survival situation, the vendor will replace it free of charge. I mean, we wouldn’t want anyone weighing the pros and cons of someone’s life, now would we?

Now while I know that chances are I won’t have to use this bracelet, it would be nice to know that if I was in danger that I would have a way out. And even if I never use it, I know I won’t regret buying it. And you know why? Because what’s a better pick up line than telling a woman that I’m a spy on a secret mission?

Any seasoned player would be wise to pick up the Beer Pong Ice Rack (Convenient Gadgets & Gifts, $24.95) for their next get together. I mean, just think about the worst thing that can happen during a game of Beer Pong. Was it the beer getting warm? Because I think that is just about one of the worst crimes that can be committed against a beer. Now you can avoid such a catastrophe because once you fill this rack with water and stick it in the freezer, you’ve got ice cold beer for hours. Also, since the rack has built in slots for each cup, the odds of cups spilling are greatly decreased. Not only does this mean less clean up during party hours, but you can also expect less disagreements about cup placement. We all know that guy who says the cups are touching, but they’re really about two inches apart (making your shot less than accurate). And don’t even get me started on the jerk who sticks the back cups right on the edge of the table so they’ll fall off when you make the shot. Since the cups are placed in the rack, they can’t be tampered with as easily and subsequently will not result in a puddle of beer on your floor. Or you could just not invite that guy. I’m just saying.

If you’re a Beer Pong newbie, don’t fret. This set comes with two racks, three ping pong balls, and a set of official rules. You can read up on the rules (decide which ones you’re going to completely ignore), practice a little on your own, and then host a shindig. Whip out these racks and I can guarantee you’ve just made a whole bunch of new friends.

If you’re packing the Wallet Digital Frame (Chinavasion, $25.22), then you can store all your favorite photos in one conveniently small space. Now, I know you’ve heard of digital photo frames before, but how about one that’s so small it can fit in your wallet? I didn’t think so. The size of a few credits cards stacked together, this photo frame is the perfect size to take with you on your daily excursions. I mean, you never know when you might need to whip out a picture or two of the fam, right? Not only do you have 2GB of memory capacity to store your photos, but you can also use this digital photo viewer as a USB flash drive to store mass quantities of files. It comes in a clear plastic case, so you won’t have to worry about it getting roughed up in your wallet. Also, the built-in software automatically converts your picture files into 128 x 128 resolution for proper viewing on the 1.5″ LCD screen.

Think about it, this is so much cooler than those stupid digital photo frame keychains. I mean, how often do you misplace your keys? Like every day, right? And how often do you misplace your wallet? Alright, so a lot, but not nearly as much as your keys. My point being, you’re less likely to lose this thing. Maybe.
