Thingmade has invented one of the most annoying neon signs on the planet: a physical version of the loading icon. Put it in front of a teenager and he will immediately be unable to even. Such is the power of the Gyroscopic Illuminated Figure. Yes, the GIF.
The 36″ x 36″ x 5″ sign comes with a switch for adjusting the flickering speed. I don’t know if there’s a setting that makes it steady. Or if the page will ever load.
As if we needed any more reason to hate it, Thingmade is selling the GIF for $20,000 (USD).
