For those of you who have never seen it, Woot.Com is a website that traffics in a variety of items, usually selling one item per day at a large discount over normal retail. The stuff they offer tends by and large to be geek-tech oriented (computers, AV equipment, with the occasional oddkin tossed in for variety).
Tonight, while popping through, I saw this, prompting the following conversation:
kitanzi: What is that?
autographedcat: It’s a computer accessory set shaped like frogs. See: keyboard, mouse, and speakers. Frogs.
kitanzi: They keyboard isn’t shaped like a frog. No wait, it is.
autographedcat: Yeah, see – there’s the eyes, and there’s its little hands.
kitanzi: Roadkill frog, more like.
autographedcat: Maybe that’s why the mouse and the speakers look so alarmed. <does South Park voices> “Oh my God, they killed Kenny!” “You BASTARDS!”

Don’t every type on a frog.
They’re disgusting.

Damn. Sold out.
I actually know somebody for whom that would’ve been a perfect gift. And only ten bucks…

Well, just because I think you’re insanely cute, I went looking for another one:

Most retail outlets are reporting “Out of Stock”, so if you really want that one, grab it.

Thank you! All those eyes might beging to feel a little creepy after awhile but it is way cute. If I was actually running lynix I have to have one , as it is, I just want one. My Christmas list is getting way to long.

I can’t decide if that’s utterly adorably and I want it, or if it’s terrifying and twisted…or possibly both.

They’re NOT mutually exclusive by any means.
