What we have here is a really cool hard drive. It even comes with a lesson in Korean codespeak. Let me explain further- this product is called the Mint Hard. The company that makes it is called Mint- that part is straightforward. The reason they call it “hard” is another story- you see, in Korea, the word hard is the same word they use to refer to ice cream bars and hard drives, so the ice cream bar shaped hard drive makes perfect sense in their language.
Also, did you notice that USB Drive handle? They mention that it isn’t meant to be used as a handle… so those of you who want to treat your USB drives like industrial handles may want to think twice… or glue it in place (please don’t glue it in place). The hard drive automatically transfers any data from an inserted USB flash drive. I’m pretty sure you don’t have to use their USB handle exclusively.
Did you know that electronics made in Korea have a Seoul? Wow, what a bad pun. I do apologize. On the other hand, I stand firmly behind the following photshoped image:
Yeeh, I just went there. What can I say, it’s what I do.

Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Anyone? Today we uncover yet another decapitated USB flash drive. The people who come up with these products must be really twisted. Or perhaps they have an unhealthy obsession with decapitation. As if there’s such a thing as a healthy obsession with decapitation. What do you mean you think I’m the one with the decapitation problem. I’m perfectly normal. PERFECTLY NORMAL.
Since the manufacturers obviously forgot to include dripping blood with their USB memory sticks , I’ve gone ahead and photoshopped it in for you… It’s all shiny and blood 2.0 ish.
Oh yeah, that’s the stuff.

This is the “Cartoon Snoop Flash Drive”. That’s not a typo- it really is called the “Snoop” flash drive. The makers of this flash drive probably didn’t want to get sued. That’s probably why it’s pink and not white. Not to worry, I’ll use my mad photoshop skillz to take care of that little problem. I’m dreaming of a white Snoopy. With blood, lots of blood coming from the neck area.
Well, would you look at that- it seems he left us a message in his last moments. Maybe it’s a clue as to who his killer is, or maybe it’s a last goodbye to his loved ones… let’s see:
“tell woodstock he still owes me five bucks” Hey, five bucks is a lot of dough for a dog. Anyone want to hire a graphic designer with a twisted sense of humor?
