I love these “polar ice” molds from the Japanese site Monos; they resemble penguins and polar bears perched on icebergs, and are balanced so they stay upright in your drink. ( via Super Punch )

This is a homemade bartending machine that creates cocktails simply by typing . Every letter corresponds to a different flavor , and, by typing a word, you create a drink that, most likely, will taste like shit. But who cares — it’s f***ing booze! *pounding keyboard* SUPERCALIFRAGILISTICEXPIALCOHOLPOISONINGHEREICOME! Haha — my cup runneth over! *slurping off table* Hit the jump for a time-lapse of the build and a video of the machine mixing in action. It even displays the letter you just pushed as the booze makes its way into your drink! (See ‘W’, above)

This is a jacket prototype by designer Matt Leggett (not to be confused with Mark Armmett), that has an integrated breathalyzer sewn into the sleeve . Just not a very practical one. *straightening bowtie* Or classy. Designed with an Arduino, an alcohol sensor and a simple LED display, the breathalyzer coat aims as a deterrent to drunk driving. Curious if your blood alcohol level is over the limit? Just blow into the alcohol sensor located in the collar of your coat and watch the LEDs light up on your sleeve, indicating your drunkenness level. I assume the jacket displays blood alcohol content in 0.02 increments, up to 0.08 (the typical legal limit), but I’m not really sure. An even better way of knowing if you’re too drunk to drive? CATCHING YOURSELF BLOWING INTO THE COLLAR OF YOUR JACKET. No — even owning a breathalyzer jacket. If you own a breathalyzer jacket you’re f***ing trashed. Hit the jump for a larger shot of the God, let me just call you a cab (you already lost your phone).

Seen here looking like something I’d kill in a video game, a woman displays the DareDroid 2.0, an interactive dress that rewards ‘Truth or Dare’ participants with cocktails for “legitimate” answers and poison for “illegitimate” ones . Fine, I was lying about the poison thing. That would make it way more interesting though. What?! I’m desensitized, I have a hard time getting kicks anymore! Me: Truth or dare? You: Dare. Me: I dare you to tell me I wouldn’t shoot you. You: You wouldn’t shoo– *BLAM! BLAM BLAM BLAM!* Me: Truth or dare? You: Truth. Me: Have you ever seen so much of your own blood before? You: I only see white. Me: Does it have a beard? That might be God. Truth or dare? You: Dare. Me: Dare you to see how long you can wait before going to the hospital. Hit the jump for several more shots and an explanatory video.

WTF: A Trivia-Asking, Drink Dispensing Dress

You’re never gonna fly if you don’t spread your wings! Seen here mid-bellyflop, a beer thief prepares to shotgun two cases of Bud Light cans with his chest . HARDCORE, BRO! The incident happened around 6:37pm on Wednesday at the E-Z Food Store, located at 15 Acuff Road in Lake Wales Polk County Sheriff’s detectives said the suspect got out of the front passenger side of a black Chevy Lumina, with tinted windows and no tag, and walked into the store. The video then shows him running out of the store with two cases of Bud Light beer. The suspect tripped, fell, lost his pants and then dropped the beer. He then jumped into the backseat of a vehicle and fled the scene. First of all, if a tinted car with no tags pulls into my convenience store and parks idling by the exit I AM HITTING THE PANIC BUTTON. And, if they somehow do manage to breach my defenses, I keep a cyanide capsule in the register. Hit the jump for a video of the ‘we can always steal some from my parents’ liquor cabinet if we fill it back up with water’.

Wear A Belt, Dummy!: Beer Thief Fail

This is a Nintendo cartridge that’s been stuffed with a breathalizer unit and synced to a homebrew NES game so you can blow into it and find out just how boozy you are. Fun for the whole family! (Except grandma, she’s a mean drunk). DrunkenNES is a for-real NES game lovingly constructed with machine code by Batsly [Adams], music by chiptune artist Kris Keyser and art by Motherboard photographer Emi Spicer. A regular NES cartridge has been loaded with an actual breathalyzer mechanism, which Batsly says he bought from a hardware store. He hacked it into a corded controller that connects to the console just like a normal joystick. After blowing into it for several seconds, the game calculates how slizzered you’ve gotten and awards you with one of several ‘results’ screens like Buzzed Bee and Party Kitten. Best party game ever? Yeah, I’d say so. Very cool. Of course the fact that you’d have to tote a whole NES around pretty much limits its practicality to at-home use only. Which, correct me if I’m wrong, is the one place it doesn’t how drunk you get. Unless you’re one of those drunk-texters, in which case, God, enough with the penis pictures already, I’m on a pay-per-text plan! Just kidding, but do try to consolidate. Hit the jump for a drunk cameraman filming a drunk breathalizer user. Barfy!

Ever had a boilmaker? I have — I drank them exclusively one night. I got home and shat on the back of my feet while I was puking. Enter the ‘Shot in the Pint’ drinking glasses ($20/two). They have a shot glass on one end, and a pint glass on the other. Per product description (that was obviously not written ANYWHERE near drunk enough): These pint glasses are spot-on the answer to your humdrum, ho hum, mundane, pedestrian, and blah drinking glass collection! The perfectly nonsensical way to impress your friends and liven up any night out, this combination shot glass - pint glass lets you drink down your brew and follow it with something a little stronger with a simple flip of the glass! Say sayonara to the shame you felt while double-fisting and hello to liberated libation! First of all, I’ve never, EVER felt shame double fisting drinks. Or quadruple fisting for that matter. What I have felt is somebody’s hand on my ass and knowing I couldn’t do anything about it. But here’s the quandary: regardless of whether you fill the shot or pint, is the glass perpetually half-empty? *glug glug glug* Looks all the way empty to me. Happy Brown Wednesday!
