Mini Adult-Sized Sports Cars Are Taking the World by Storm — Full Speed, Full Drift, 2 Meters Long
Weirdness Level7/10
🌀 Very Strange
“A Shanghai art studio is selling miniature but fully functional adult sports cars — think Porsche 964, Mazda RX-7, Nissan GTR R34 — that are just 2.2 metres long, hit 100 km/h, and are designed specifically for drifting. They start at around $8,800 and come with a fake engine noise generator, because apparently silently sliding a tiny Porsche around a car park is not the vibe.”

Japan Now Sells a Life-Size Psyduck Chair You Can Sit In When You're Feeling Overwhelmed
Japanese furniture maker Cellutane has created a life-sized Psyduck bead-filled sofa chair — because if you are going to have a stress-induced breakdown, you might as well do it inside a giant, perpetually overwhelmed Pokemon. The chair is stuffed with sugobeads for maximum sink-in comfort, has a machine-washable cover, and costs a very reasonable $183 for the privilege of being hugged by a creature who truly gets it.
