not an iPad bookcase but, rather, a hidden door

Now you see me, now you don't.

"Indistinguishable from a regular bookcase, Reversica's hidden door conceals a secret passage to a safe, wine cellar, walk-in closet or hidden room."

Apply within.

How much of your favorite form of caffeine would it take to kill you?

Jolt+Cola

It's about time someone put this easy online calculator out there.

Bonus: Works for people not only here in the U.S. but also readers in New Zealand, Australia, the U.K. and Europe.

Leave it to my secret weapon, the inimitable Joe Peach, to suss it out.

Zit Poppers Gummy Pimples

Candywarehouse_2105_273296865

From the website:

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

Pop those zits!

Oh, the sweet memories of those adolescent years, relieving the pressure of massive pimples by squeezing them between two fingers until they burst forth their icky fluid.

Gross!

These plump candy pimples are the largest such growths we've ever seen.

They're oozy, sticky, goo-filled gummies ripe for squirting.... and come in 2 fruity flavors as most zits do: Strawberry and Watermelon.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

15 pieces/box; 12 pack box: $19.80 ("Sorry — candy acne cream not included").
