Craziest of craziness

You might have read about products like ‘girlfriend’s leg pillow’, ‘boyfriend’s arm pillow’ or a robot that puts a baby to sleep. I was pretty much OK with this stuff until recently when I came across some funniest, craziest products that Japan has manufactured.



1. Bilk: It’s said that, the idea for the drink was conceived after dairy firms threw out a huge amount of surplus milk in March last year. The son of the manager of a liquor store in Nakashibetsu, whose main industry is dairy farming, suggested the idea of producing the milk beer. So there you go, a milk beer!

I just wanna know, is it OK for infants to drink this bilk?




2. Pouched Mother’s milk: Milk that taste just like your mother’s milk is the tag line they use. Wonderful! A typical Bollywood movie then have to change their ever green dialogue, “Kutte, Kamine.. Maa ka doodh Piya he to saamne aa”. They might need to now say, “Kutte, Kamine… Maa ka pasteurized pouch milk piya he to saamne aa”. I don’t think Dharam Pa will agree to use this improvised dialogue. Actors…..




3. Diaper harness for your dogs: Worried that your dog will run around trees or street lamps? Use harness with a diaper attached to eat. All you have to do is Diaper train your dogs. Probably just as easy as potty training your kids. :)




4. Anti-flatulence Underwear: You want to fart in public without smelly flatulence? It’s now easy. All you have to do is buy a “Subtle Butt” product manufactured by “Pony Inc.”

This "Subtle Butt", acts as a fart neutralizer, to eliminate smelly flatulence. It's an activated carbon fabric pad, measuring 3.25" x 3.25" square, and adheres to the inside of your underwear with two self-adhesive strips. As the wind breaks, Subtle Butt filters the flatulence, absorbing and neutralizing its odor.

Now you need not worry what you eat and how much you eat. Eat as many choole and aloo gobi etc. as you want. You can still have a social life. And need not worry about your reputation.

Also you can hear people say out loud,” THAT’s ME!”.

In a meeting:
Employee: That’s me!
Manager: It’s ok! I like the smell of vanilla. Next time try out chocolate flavor. I am being using it. Girls go crazy behind it just like AXE effect.




5.Infant with a cleaning mob: Worried that your infant is not productive enough? And are you eager to have them recognized or counted in the productive age group? Get him/her a new clothes with a cleaning mob attached to it. “Clean while you crawl”. Even Infants in some country like Japan are not allowed to be unproductive. Soon the productive age group in Japan will be considered from 6months to unlimited. (Considering no retirement age in Japan). This will increase the productive generation ratio 80% or more. To get it near to 100% they might come up with a new idea for new born babies and sick people too. Don’t lay un-productive while in ICU or in a crab.

Multi-tasking and sharing...

Multi-tasking: Being brought up in a typical Indian family we are thought to do multi-tasking since childhood. Reciting god’s prayer while taking a bath. It’s was only after I grew up, that I came to know about the bathroom singer concept. I also remember solving my math/maths problems while watching cricket match. It does require lots of skill and concentration. Some people even go to the extent of brushing their teeth while preparing tea. And the most common is to read newspapers while on toilet seat, pertaining you have western toilet system at your home. In a typical chawl in Mumbai, where you share ‘one toilet behind four - five Families’, multitasking is as necessary as attending the nature call itself. You can even see people standing in a queue, brushing their teeth and reading newspapers while waiting for their turn to attend nature’s call. And for a change, Indian people do maintain a perfect queue holding a ‘Tamrel’ which serves as a flush in many Indian toilets even today. Sometimes they place their Tamrel outside the toilet to indicate the queue.

People do multi-tasking like, listening to music while working. Or is it the other way round? Working while listening to music. Few exercise machines also are renewed to do multi tasking. Like loose few calories while listening to music. I know one company who has designed a treadmill with food racks. ‘Eat while you lose some calories’. ‘Exercise made fun while eating’ might be their promotion tags.

Driving while on call, makes me wonder of multiple multi-tasking like multiple accidents, multiple death, multiple chaos. Multi-tasking of multi-tasking. On a typical Indian road, one can even find a beggar with a laptop. It might also be a part of multi tasking. Working as a customer service guy attending US customer calls while begging on Indian roads. Multi tasking leading to multi income with NO multi taxes.

Talking while eating is another multi-tasking skill adapted by people. Is it to show-off the expensive food that we are eating? Or to show that you floss every day? Or is it just to save time? Or is it for showing how multi-ugly one can look?

Sharing: Alas! We are ‘forced’ to share. We are taught that ‘sharing is good’. Since childhood, I am being sharing books, toys, room etc. with my sister. My mother is very particular about sharing. Once when I sneezed on my sister’s face trying to share some germs with her, my mom scolded me. Making me wonder if sharing is good or bad? After that, I have never shared anything from chocolate, cakes to germs with my sis.

I have even seen my friend sharing a tooth BRUSH while on one trek. Hope they also share their dentist and his bills. This reminds me of a nice story of an old couple. The lady used to serve her husband dinner and only after he is done, she used to start with her dinner. People thought it to be the most romantic thing until the truth was revealed. The reality was they share common set of complete dentures. Now that’s called a romantic sharing.

I have also seen my friends sharing one ‘Tamrel’ between four while on many treks. They even go to extend by marking the amount of water one should use to flush off their deeds. Friend in need is a friend inDEEDS.

I even saw one Hollywood movie wherein a wife files for divorce seeing her husband sharing a bed with other women and cheating on her. He tries to explain the importance of sharing, but she fail to understand it.
