Keep On Poppin’: Everlasting Bubble Wrap iPhone Case

Posted on by

Bubble Wrap Case

Here’s a quick tip on what you can do if you’re stressed: pop bubble wrap. It sounds silly, but it actually works for many people, yours truly included. There’s just something therapeutic about popping bubble wrap when so many things are going wrong (ie. crappy day at work, bank account got hacked, there’s no more milk in the fridge…)

It seems wasteful, since bubble wrap is a non-renewable commodity. Or is it?

It seems like Japan figured out how to deal with that with the iPhone 5 ‘everlasting’ Bubble Wrap Case. It’s ‘everlasting’ in the sense that the bubbles you’ve popped on the case slowly inflate back to their original unpopped form after a short time.

The Bubble Wrap iPhone 5 Case retauks for about $19.

Secure your precious iPhone 5 in Strapya’s Bubble Wrap case. This is one of the few times that you’d rather own the imitation than the real thing, because the bubbles on the case will never burst. More protection for your phone and more popping for you.

Just look at how much fun this guy is having:

Poppin’ Hot Bubble Wrap Oven Mitt

Don’t touch the oven- it’s poppin’ hot. The Poppin’ Hot Oven Mitt is not actually made out of bubble wrap, it just looks like it is. So unfortunately you can’t pop all the bubbles while you wait for your food to be ready but since it’s made of silicone you can take your food out without burning yourself. Package up your hands for transporting (hot food). The bubble design is actually probably pretty handy for gripping things. Available starting in April.

Bubble Wrap Bikini: Eyes Won’t Be the Only Thing That’ll Pop

Posted on by

You have to wonder: if that girl who was wearing the itsy bitsy teeny weeny yellow polkadot bikini was afraid to come out in the open, how would she feel if she were wearing this bubble wrap bikini instead?

Bubble Wrap Bikini1I know that there’s some sort of craze involving bubble wrap these days, but I never imagined that it would come to this. It’s not that it’s bad; it’s actually pretty cool in a very strange and offbeat way. It also kind of reminds me about that story about the emperor and his new clothes; while it’s definitely something to be awestruck about, it’ll leave the wearer exposed and out in the open, in the figurative and very literal sense.

As you can see, the bikini leaves nothing to the imagination. The bubbles on the bikini aren’t the only thing that’ll go pop when you wear it to the beach, that’s for sure.

Bubble Wrap Bikini

Apparently, this extremely daring bikini was an actual product from the early 1990s and was kept in storage (with minimal bubbles popped!) by Etsy seller BlackBettyVintage. The bubble wrap bikini is up for sale for $25 NZD (~$22 USD).

Bubble Wrap Suit and Ties: De-Stress on the Go and Look Like a Fool

Posted on by

It’s ironic how more people get stressed during the holiday season. Perhaps it’s the added deadline to turn in all those year-end reports and papers, or the fact that there’s less time finish everything you have to do for the month. Oh, and the shopping malls and holiday get-togethers.

We’ve previously presented an alternative to the usual things that people do for stress relief: bubble wrap popping. But if you live nowhere near a Bubble Wrap Anti-Stress Station, then why not get a personal poppin’ station that you can take with you, anytime, anywhere?

Correction: that should probably be ‘wear’ instead of ‘take,’ because these Bubble Wrap Suits have recently become available on ThinkGeek. The Bubble Wrap Ties you see below were also released simultaneously, so you have one option for mildly stressful moments and extremely stressful situations.

Bubble Wrap Ties

Kidding aside, the bubble wrap suit was actually inspired by the ones that Zoltan and his followers donned in Dude, Where’s My Car? It was pretty weird and funny in the movie, and it’s even more silly in real life.

The Bubble Space Suit retails for $14.99(USD) while the Bubble Wrap Ties go for $7.99.

Remember the Bubble Wrap Space Suit from ‘Dude, Where’s My Car?’ Well, It’s Here!

I can’t believe the amount of stupidity moviemakers managed to cram into Dude, Where’s My Car? Among a host of gags is the part with Zoltan and his gang of bubble wrap-suit wearing followers. If you’ve ever wanted to own one of these suits but were too lazy to make one yourself, then now’s your chance to get it for cheap.

Similar bubble wrap suits are priced at about $60, while you can get this one for a measly $14.99. Just be careful when you put it on though, because you don’t all the bubbles to pop before you get a chance to show it off to fellow geeks and movie aficionados.

Hit the break for a look at the full suit.

Some people are just a tiny bit more accident prone than others. You know you have that one bull in a china shop adult friend that requires that you childproof your home before they come over. There’s a special outfit for those people: Bubble Wrap Suit Bubble Wrap Suit. At the forefront of style as seen on Zoltan from the classic (or perhaps “classic”) cinema masterpiece Dude, Where’s My Car?

Some people turn to ice cream or power-shopping when they’re stressed. Others watch movies, play with their dog, or sleep it out.

Still others find that they relieve their stress best by popping a whole lot of bubble wrap. And helping make bubble wrap more available is this Bubble Wrap Anti-Stress Station by artist fra-biancoshock.

Bubble Wrap Station

He set up this little installation at a bus stop in Milan where he tacked on sheets of bubble wrap along with a sign that indicated just how many minutes of popping action a person can have with each.

It’s convenient, it’s fun, and it’s one of the simplest way to relieve stress without breaking the bank. Need to quit stress-shopping? Bubble wrap bursting is definitely something you have to try!
