EMTEC's Kooky Klickers-based USB drives bring a smile to anyone's face

Think you're having a rough day? Did you get a placard with instructions to the exit rather than a bonus check this week? We know, life's a little rough right now, but how on Earth can you look at the bunch pictured above and not crack at least a smidgen of a grin? Based on the insanely popular Kooky Klickers brand, the Kooky USB Drives are modeled after the widely recognized character pens and are being pushed by EMTEC. Curiously, there's no mention at all of a price, and odder still, not a peep on capacity choices; in other words, you should be fully prepared to pay too much for too little when your kid starts to wailing.

[Flaystus @ Dec 30th 2008 10:09AM]

Not even smiling a little bit. Instead I'm filled with a seething rage.

[Byrdman @ Dec 30th 2008 10:17AM]

they are $14.99 for a 2 gig. We have had these at office depot for like 3 weeks now.

[Shulgi @ Dec 30th 2008 10:22AM]

And they double as dildos..

[Fred @ Dec 30th 2008 10:23AM]

Those things really are awful.

[StinkyPete @ Dec 30th 2008 10:31AM]

Already in the "bargin bin" at the Office Depot I was at. Awful indeed.

The Christmas Poo in South Park?

[konshuss @ Dec 30th 2008 11:04AM]

[rita hainsworth @ Dec 30th 2008 11:22AM]

Funny, last time I did shrooms I had this idea.

[phanbouy fan fan @ Dec 30th 2008 11:50AM]

I don't think portobellas count, bro.

[KilgoreTrout @ Dec 30th 2008 11:49AM]

Why do all USB keys have to be always the bloody same (even if they now come in all shapes and colours)?

I want an USB key that once inserted in its port atutomatically sets itself in RAID conf. and backs up all new files.
Or a couple of IR USB keys that when inserted in two different PCs automatically share files.
Or one that when inserted in my netbook would turn the contraption in a satellite phone, or a short wave radio, or a game console.

Do I really have to make everything by myself?

[Eric Maldonado @ Dec 30th 2008 12:04PM]

Yes.

[Russ @ Dec 30th 2008 11:58AM]

[Toonz @ Dec 30th 2008 12:51PM]

Why are so many of these USB sticks so big they block up the second (or more) USB port?

[Geek45 @ Dec 30th 2008 12:31PM]

I saw these @ office max, should've got the price for you guys. dangit.

[superhobo @ Dec 30th 2008 1:21PM]

Made me frown in distaste

[Tyler @ Dec 30th 2008 4:30PM]

This was at Staples awhile ago. Blah!

[David Weitz @ Dec 30th 2008 6:25PM]

We still have them at Office Depot for 12.99 for the 2gb. They will probably go on clearance in two weeks if nothing happens, but they are slightly bigger than normal drives so you may find it hard to squeeze it between other ones in the back of your tower.
