Shouting vase muffles outbursts, doubles as flower holder

We genuinely hope you don't have a need for this thing, but after standing in one of the many iPhone lines for hours on end, only to hear Apple tell you to come back in the morning and try again, we can certainly see how it would come in handy. Best we can tell, the shouting vase is just a sophisticated (or not) muffling utensil, which enables tempestuous individuals to unleash incredible roars that no one will be forced to endure. Still, at €51 ($80), this thing better produce thoughtful alternatives to our maddening rants for it to be even close to worthwhile.

I think his comment was in response to the fact that they want $80 for a glorified flower pot....... not out of anxiousness about knowing how much this thing costs.... $8 is too much for it, forget 80

[Nipponese @ Jul 17th 2008 11:45AM]

It's a Japanese product. By today's exchange rate, the original price is $47.10 (4980 yen)

The product is pretty funny, on the very bottom image it says, "To relieve stress. Bitch about your work. Dealing with in-laws?"

[eggothewaffle @ Jul 17th 2008 1:53AM]

Those Asians sure have interesting ideas as to what constitutes pornography...

[gad get @ Jul 17th 2008 4:24AM]

That's not even funny, yet people liked it! What the pig?!

[rock99rock @ Jul 17th 2008 11:30AM]

i thought it was funny, and relevant. That guy is topless, lookin like he is shovin that "gadget" as far down his pipe as he can.

[Matt @ Jul 17th 2008 1:55AM]

Looks like a pot I would consider shitting in.

[Chaitanya @ Jul 17th 2008 4:32AM]

Would you play $80 for it?

[I LOVE THE CAPS LOCK KEY @ Jul 17th 2008 2:01AM]

For $80 I can sound my rants off on a Cell Phone; even better, I'll save $80 and keep ranting on Engadget for free.

[Anthony H. @ Jul 17th 2008 2:15AM]

You don't live up to your name.

[I LOVE THE CAPS LOCK KEY @ Jul 17th 2008 2:41AM]

I DO NOW!

[Dustin @ Jul 17th 2008 5:02AM]

win.

[DefPo3t @ Jul 17th 2008 2:02AM]

reminds me of when I used to scream into coke bottles as a kid

[Coral @ Jul 17th 2008 5:00PM]

You must have a really tiny mouth.

[eric @ Jul 17th 2008 7:00PM]

Big laugh for Coral.

"the perfect gift for the loud one in your life."

[M0le @ Jul 17th 2008 2:05AM]

I don't need that, sure I have an angry dome.

[CaptSaltyJack @ Jul 17th 2008 2:12AM]

I nearly choked on a jelly bean as soon as those images came up on my screen. Oh man...

[CharlieX @ Jul 17th 2008 2:16AM]

Terra Cotta Blastinator!

[tom @ Jul 17th 2008 2:35AM]

I thought it was an ad for some kind of chinese gatorade, look at that guy, looks like he's drinking. EXTREME!

[neofolklore @ Jul 17th 2008 8:00AM]

except with japanese symbols

[nak @ Jul 17th 2008 2:35AM]

Serenity now!

[Davis @ Jul 17th 2008 2:36AM]

obligatory "old news" comment...

[andres @ Jul 17th 2008 2:47AM]

because you couldnt get women even on the internet?

[steven @ Jul 17th 2008 2:49AM]

i would get one if the instructions weren't in japanese

[Dustin @ Jul 17th 2008 5:04AM]

step 1. open mouth

damn.. I got distracted. where were we?

[steven @ Jul 17th 2008 2:51AM]

hypothetically speaking, if i bought one of these would someone translate the instructions into english for me?

[Eh @ Jul 17th 2008 2:57AM]

put it up to your mouth and yell

[Tom @ Jul 17th 2008 3:01AM]

How I would have loved to photograph the ads for this thing. This seems like the greatest product photo shoot ever.

[Tom @ Jul 17th 2008 3:03AM]

I didn't like you because of your comments, but then your username just made me feel bad for you...

[Faroesima @ Jul 17th 2008 3:09AM]

So for just USD 80 it converts everything I shouts into lowercase?

[giuliop @ Jul 17th 2008 4:54AM]

Nope, it converts everything you shout to card suits, unless you are the guy in the second photo, and try to eat it.

[SuperSexyErik @ Jul 17th 2008 3:32AM]

actually I have a beautiful fiancé :)

Unfortunatly she doesn't read this tech stuff so I won't get kudoo's for calling her beautiful :(

[jupiterthunder @ Jul 17th 2008 3:46AM]

I'll sale you a throw pillow that'll do the same thing. $10 for the first 1000 callers. And if you don't feel better afterwards, you could use it to suffocate whomever pissed you off.

[Halkion @ Jul 17th 2008 4:25AM]

Woman- 私の代わりにサンドイッチ！

Man- 娼婦ほっといてくれよ！

lol... not the best translation (i used google translate)

[insertAlias @ Jul 17th 2008 12:42PM]

"I want a sandwich."
"Leave me alone prostitute."

Wow.

[gad get @ Jul 17th 2008 4:26AM]

Fortunately she doesn't read this tech stuff, so you won't get heck for saying you love iPhone pornography!

[gad get @ Jul 17th 2008 4:27AM]

Except from me.

HECK!

[Halkion @ Jul 17th 2008 4:29AM]

Woman- 私の代わりにサンドイッチ！

Man- 娼婦ほっといてくれよ！

lol... not the best translation (i used google translate)

[SuperSexyErik @ Jul 17th 2008 4:33AM]

[giuliop @ Jul 17th 2008 4:55AM]

Caveat is it works only on Asian people. Western version costs more, but you get the chance to try it right at the shop, so any swearing about the price is taken care of before buying.

[Dustin @ Jul 17th 2008 5:06AM]

No.. the difference is, you scream into it in English, and it comes out as whispered Japanese..

[Dustin @ Jul 17th 2008 5:03AM]

fail.

[Oscarv77 @ Jul 17th 2008 5:56AM]

WTF is the deal with naked dude? o_O

[OVerclockerX @ Jul 17th 2008 6:18AM]

Personally I don't see the problem with a pillow for my yelling duties.

[vdogg89 @ Jul 17th 2008 6:34AM]

so why would i pay for something i could do at home, ie: scream into a cup

[Darwin @ Jul 17th 2008 6:35AM]

We now have visual proof that most of the @#$^ that women shout are actually just farts.
