All these times I’ve been making the bus on time were clearly a mistake. I better get one of these.
splatterjacket.bsky.social Dr Splatterjacket @splatterjacket.bsky.social · 18h
Do you find yourself unable to find the time to exercise? Then you need FitTape it attaches you to any lamppost or bus stop and immediately makes you a) much fitter and b) less likely to make the bus so you have to run all the way to work making you even fitter.

splatterjacket.com/2025/12/FitT...
Two men are seemingly moving quickly forwards one on a scooter and one running, except they are each attached to separate lampposts by a rubber band with a label that says FitTape on it and there is a high tension coil that is keeping the band strong.

I was so startled by this invention I spilled my drink and had to ruin a notebook just to clear up. I really need this thing…
splatterjacket.bsky.social Dr Splatterjacket @splatterjacket.bsky.social · 7d
When was the last time you were making a note in your notebook when you suddenly spilled something and you had to ruin the notebook to clean up the mess? Probably yesterday or this morning, but that doesn't happen to me because I have NoteMop.

splatterjacket.com/2025/11/Note...
A notebook with pages showing inside it has a mop on an adjustable arm coming out of the bottom of it, it is cleaning up a brown liquid spilled on the floor of the office it is in. On the cover of the notebook it says NoteMop.

Of course books on paper… now that would be really handy.
splatterjacket.bsky.social Dr Splatterjacket @splatterjacket.bsky.social · 14d
Do you ever get board of reading everything on screen? Not anymore because with PrintRead you can print out what you are reading and read it on paper! It’s the future!

splatterjacket.com/2025/11/Prin...
A cup of coffee and a tablet computer are on a desk. There is text on the screen and that text is also coming out of the screen on a piece of paper. There are other pages of paper on the table.

Well it’s fair to say I would never have thought of using a bin to keep me dry, but I guess that’s why Dr Splatterjacket is a genius!
splatterjacket.bsky.social Dr Splatterjacket @splatterjacket.bsky.social · 21d
When it is raining do you get wet, when instead you could hide in a bin? Of course you don't because hiding in a normal bin would be silly, but with DryBin you can stay dry and use it as a bin at the same time!

In the middle of the picture is a bin with a canopy on top. It is raining and behind the bin is a boy looking at the bin with interest.

Wow who doesn’t want to reduce the number of documents they are carrying by one?
splatterjacket.bsky.social Dr Splatterjacket @splatterjacket.bsky.social · 28d
When you are travelling do you find yourself with too many different documents? Why not get the MapPort which is a combination Map and Passport, that immediately reduces your number of documents by one (if you are still using paper maps).

splatterjacket.com/2025/11/MapP...
The scene is one of travel with a person in the background wearing a backpack. On the table in the foreground stands a MapPort, on the left it looks like a standard passport with visa papers, on the right is a solar powered map.

That is a good question? Why don’t I have one? I better order 5 today!
splatterjacket.bsky.social Dr Splatterjacket @splatterjacket.bsky.social · Nov 1
Do you have water in pipes in your house? What would you do if one of those pipes suddenly burst? The FlowHammer not only immediately detects the leak, but allows you to just hit the pipe and it is fixed. The question really is why you don’t have one.

This could be handy… for a Wheezy hairy friend.
splatterjacket.bsky.social Dr Splatterjacket @splatterjacket.bsky.social · Oct 25
Is your nose hair too long and needs plucking? Do you potentially have Asthma? Then get the WeezyTweezers for all your nose based breathing issues (as long as they are either too much nose hair or Asthma).

splatterjacket.com/2025/10/Weez...
The picture shows three images. First a man is using an asthma inhaler, second it is shown in more detail resting on a hand to show it is a combination asthma inhaler and pair of tweezers, finally it is shown about to remove some nose hair.

Of course @kath4ll.bsky.social might find all the space for extra photos from holiday a boon.
splatterjacket.bsky.social Dr Splatterjacket @splatterjacket.bsky.social · Oct 18
When you go on holiday do you find it difficult to locate your luggage on the carousel? Do you wish your luggage tag could contain all of your photos? Then get TagVault and you’ll have at least a 10% better holiday than everyone else!

splatterjacket.com/2025/10/TagV...
A man is standing in an airport holding a mobile phone in his hand. The phone has waves emanating from it which makes it seem it is communicating with the tag on the man’s luggage which also has waves coming out of it. The luggage tag has a screen on it displaying info about a file transfer that is in progress and even which gate the flight they are going to is.

I’m impressed I never knew I could need a product like this but after drinking 17 cups of coffee I think I’m ready for it!

Wakey Wakey… Are you sleepy and tired? Then you need BrewLather for the ultimate inside and outside coffee experience!

Do you sometimes wonder where you would like to go on holiday? Would you like to drink from a glass which uses your DNA and drink preference to decide for you? Then you need StayGlass today!

I had to manually wash up all my own cutlery and plates after my last picnic like some kind of chump… when I get my DishShades never again…
splatterjacket.bsky.social Dr Splatterjacket @splatterjacket.bsky.social · Sep 27
Do you need two tiny micro vibration dishwashers attached to your sunglasses when picnicking? If you said no then you are lying and so I don't mind not selling you DishShades. For everyone else order them now!

Sounds useful. I wonder if you can use them with earplugs?
splatterjacket.bsky.social Dr Splatterjacket @splatterjacket.bsky.social · Aug 23
Do you sometimes need to hear things from far away (when there aren't loud noises)? Then you need Enhearencers! Very useful and with only a significant chance of deafening you.
