Nicolas Cage Merrycolor Sequin Pillow
Whether you know someone who recently moved out or they’re just a really big Nicolas Cage fan, this sequin throw pillow is a fun accessory for any decor. The sequins conceal the true appearance of the pillow: an enlarged and cropped image of the national treasure icon, but can be played with and arranged in different ways; we recommend browsing the reviews and seeing what other users have come up with (our favorite might be the Nicolas Cage hacker). Savor with delight as the recipient sits down and slowly realizes what is what. As one user put it, “You want this. Truly.

Shower Margarita Machine Gift Box
You’ve heard of shower beers and even shower wine, but what about shower margaritas? Sounds too good to be true, right? Well, that’s because it kind of is. While everyone is free to enjoy a margarita in the privacy of their shower if they wish (being careful, of course), there is unfortunately no machine capable of making a margarita in the shower that we are aware of at the current time. That said, the recipient of your gift doesn’t need to know – yet. This box is designed to look like a high-end device, making it a perfectly harmless, yet hilarious practical joke.

This pouch is specially designed to hold a slice and keep it safe and readily available when the pizza lover in your life needs it most. What’s better than a practical gag gift?

Shocktato board game
Chances are you’ve heard of the game Hot Potato or played it before, but what about Shocktato? This game takes the concept we all know and adds a slight twist to it. Pass the potato as fast as you can before the music stops; the person who has the misfortune to hold it at that moment is literally in shock. If that’s not your speed (or if you’re playing with young children), you can switch to a music-only option to avoid shock. There is also an extreme setting for those feeling extra brave.
