10 Interesting phone cases

If you thought your smartphone couldn't be cooler, allow me to prove you wrong. From phone protectors with various tools attached to a case that's a phone all its own, join me as we count down 10 rather unique phone cases.

#10: Whale Case

Thar he or she does stuff!
True to its name, this case is in the shape of a whale, complete with flippered tail. The tail can be used for a number of different things, including holding your wired headphones and hanging the phone from a horizontal pole.

#9: Duck case

Functional and cute all at the same time!
The back of this case resembles a baby duck, complete with a cute beak and little legs. The legs can not only stand the phone up, but they can also hold your wired headphones.

#8: Pepper spray case

I'd say this'll show an attacker, but chances are they won't be seeing anything for a while when hit with this!
This case will not only protect your phone, but also protect you, because it has a pepper spray container ready to be used at any time.

#7: Kobwa Gameboy case

Sure you can just use an emulator to play Gameboy games on your phone, but that option doesn't include physical buttons!
This retro-style case has several built-in games that you can play at any time, even when the phone it's connected to is low on battery or charging.

#6: Fidget spinner case

Spin baby spin!
This phone case comes with a built-in fidget spinner that doubles as a phone grip.

#5: Bottle opener and lighter case

Going to a bar tonight? This'll be the perfect tool!
This heavy-duty case has 2 extra tools built in. The first is a bottle opener for your cold brew and the second is a contact lighter for your incendiary needs.

#4: Voxkin waterproof case

For they outdoorsman in you!

This heavy-duty case will protect your phone from any water that comes its way. Not only that, but it also has a built-in compass to help you find your way and a lanyard for easy holding.

#3: Taser case

When a problem comes along, you must zap it! If an attacker comes along, you must zap em!
This case has 2 functions. It can not only knock out any potential attackers, but can also charge your phone.

#2: TaskOne

If your thought your phone couldn't be more versatile, let this guy disprove your theory!
This case has multiple different tools on it, including a knife, a bottle opener, several screw drivers and wire cutters. It pretty much makes your phone even more useful.

#1: Eye Smart Case

2 Phones in 1? Now that's a phone case!
This is case is essentially an Android phone that fits over your iPhone. As of this writing this case is in the prototype stage, but I imagine it'd be really cool to have when it comes out.

If you were looking for some cool protective gear for your phone, I hope I helped. If you can think of any more versatile phone cases, fire up your keyboard and send some suggestions to the comments section. I'll see you later. Have a merry Christmas.

10 Interesting smart watches

What's better than having a computer in your pocket? Having one on your wrist, of course! From notifiers that connect to your phone to full on computers that can replace your phone, join me as we count down 10 smart watches worth checking out.

#10: Martian

It looks like a normal watch, doesn't it?
While this one at first appears to be a standard luxury watch, underneath the clock is a tiny screen that displays whatever notifications your connected smartphone might be trying to send you.

#9: Samsung Gear S2

Spin baby, spin!
It looks like your standard smartwatch, but it has a fun little secret. In addition to a touchscreen, this device holds a rotating bevel to help with navigating the menus. As if that wasn't enough, it is also compatible with 3G and 4G, so you don't even need to connect it to a smartphone to use it.

#8: VTech Kidizoom SmartwatchDX

They'll make a toy version of everything, won't they?
Instead of iOS or Android, this smartwatch for kids features a unique OS made by VTech. It features 2 cameras, a mini USB port and its own apps and watch faces.

#7: Omate Truesmart

Not the biggest option, but an option nonetheless!
This water-resistant little smartwatch can do everything a smartphone can do without being connected to one. It even includes a camera for picture taking, though at an awkward angle.

#6: Apple Watch

Well to be fair, this watch is kinda fancy.
In exchange for being incredibly expensive, this smartwatch offers extremely high class and almost unmatched customization. In addition, it also has water resistant casing, force touch capability and a button that doubles as a knob for additional app control. Just be sure to have an iOS device to pair with it.

#5: Pebble

Press f to pay respects.
Unlike the other watches on this list, this one runs a black and white LCD screen and is controlled with 4 buttons on the sides instead of a touchscreen. There are 3 variations of this device: The original, toy-like model, the fancy Pebble Steel, and the Pebble Time, which uses a fancy new colored screen. While the Pebble company is now defunct, there is a fan community called Rebble that keeps the software alive.

#4: Neptune Pine

This thing pretty much is a phone!
Not only is this device much bigger than the standard watch (computer or otherwise), it can also function just like a smartwatch. As if that wasn't cool enough, the watch can also be detached from the strap to take pictures with.

#3: LeapFrog Leapband

Leave it to LeapFrog to put kids first!
Because this watch is aimed at kids 6 and under, it offers no GPS or calling functionality. Instead, it has preloaded kids games, a virtual pet, activity tracking and an award system.

#2: Fossil Wrist PDA

Meet the great grandfather of smartwatches!
Definitely the oldest device on the list, this device runs a black and white display and can synchronize data with a connected PC. While it might be dated nowadays, it was still a pretty big trail blazer for future smartwatches.

#1: ZYPAD

I know it goes on your wrist, but does this technically count?
This device is possibly the most unique of the bunch. First of all, it debuted in 2006, before smartwatches became widespread. Second, it is by far the biggest device on this list, being more of a bracelet than a watch. Lastly, it uses a Linux instead of running an operating system tailored for smartwatches or smartphones.

If you're looking for some great wristworn gadgets, I think you'll be happy. If you can think of some other great smart watches, be sure to drop some suggestions in the comments section. I'll see you later. Have a merry Christmas.

20 Funny food pranks

April Fools Day, Thanksgiving Day or any day, these pranks will net you some laughs... And a broken nose if the you're unlucky. From giving your customer deceptively disgusting treats to making a huge mess with your roommate's drink, join me as we count down 20 really funny food related pranks. Warning: Prank responsibly. I will not be held responsible if you get a black eye doing these pranks and neither will my sources.

#20: Offer and eat

Results are best if you use something that'll fit all the way in your mouth.
Offer somebody something tasty and pop it in your mouth as soon as they reach for it.

#19: Water in a drink can

Set them up for disappointment!

Empty a not see through beverage container and fill it up with water. Then offer it to someone and watch their surprised reaction.

#18: Caramel onion

My eyes say yes, but my tastebuds say no!
Cover a red onion with caramel sauce and possibly chopped nuts and pass it off as a caramel onion. Then sit back and laugh as they spit the deceptive treat out in disgusted.

#17: Pickle Jello

Look's good, doesn't it?
Make Jello treats with pickle brine and salt as additional ingredients. If you want them to be really alluring, decorate them with fruit and/or whipped cream.

#16: Soda can mess

Sploosh shocka locka!
Shake up a soda can and give it to somebody. Stand back as the soda sprays all over your victim and run for it if they get mad.

#15: Meatloaf cake

It's a trap!
Make a pound of meatloaf and cover it with frosting so you can pass it off as cake.

#14: Colgate Oreos

At least your target's breath smell nicer.
Replace the icing of Oreo or other sandwich cookies with white toothpaste. Just don't film yourself giving them to homeless people and put the footage on YouTube.

#13: Frozen breakfast cereal

I was frozen today!
Put a bowl of cereal with milk and a spoon in the freezer overnight. When morning comes, give the bowl to a friend and laugh as they try to remove the spoon.

#12: Beanboozled!

Nasty!
Place some Jelly Belly Beanboozled beans in with your target's bowl of jelly beans. Kinda explains itself.

#11: Ice Mentos

As soon as these melt, your friend's soda will go all over the place!
Freeze Mentos mints into ice cubes and put them in your target's soda. When the ice melts, their soda will overflow and get all over the place.

#10: Chocolate covered garlic

Chopped walnuts optional, but they will make these more alluring.
Cover garlic cloves in melted chocolate and pass the morsels off as chocolate covered peanuts.

#9: Upside down water cup

You know what they say: All upside down cups spill drinks!
Set a drinking container up so that its upside down and filled with whatever drink you want. When the container is picked up, the liquid will spill out and onto whatever it was standing on.

#8: Mealworm chocolates

Believe it or not, some people actually eat these.
When making chocolate treats, hide roasted mealworms within them. Unless your target likes culinarily prepared bugs, this will surely gross them out.

#7: Colorful toilet water

What a waste of good pink lemonade!
Put a drink mix into the tank of your victim's toilet so that when flushed the water it puts into the bowl is colored.

#6: Already sliced up banana

When done right, those pieces will go flying!
Take a banana and slice the fruit within the skin using a sharp pin. To do this, push the pin into the skin and wiggle it around until the fruit is sliced up. If you did it right, the banana should fall apart when it's peeled

#5: Hotter than they expected

Hot cha cha cha cha cha!
Sneak a spicy ingredient like hot sauce or spicy peppers into your target's next snack or meal. This'll work especially well if they don't like spicy stuff, but make sure they aren't allergic to your secret ingredient.

#4: Kraft orange juice

How cheesy!
Mix water and Kraft cheese powder together and pass it off as orange juice.

#3: Windex Gatorade

Just don't get your bottles mixed up. You do not want Windex in your stomach!
Empty and clean out a spray bottle of window cleaner and fill it with a brightly colored drink, making sure the drink's color matches the color of the window cleaner. When somebody's watching, drink from the spray bottle.

#2: Vanilla Mayo

Woowee that's a lot of white stuff!
Empty a jar of Mayonnaise and fill it up with vanilla pudding. Then either eat from the jar in front of people or give it to somebody and watch them put it on their sandwich.

#1: Ketchup soda

Unless they have future telling powers, your friends won't see this one coming!
Stick a disposable straw into a packet of ketchup and put it in a non-clear container of soda. Give the drink to somebody and watch their reaction.

If you're looking for some funny pranks to do this Thanksgiving Day, look no further. Just be careful who you prank and you should be fine. If you can remember some more food pranks, place some comments down. I'll see you later. Have a happy Thanksgiving.
