Mystery Karaoke Singing Pills Help You Belt Out Your Favorite Tunes

Presumably sold alongside the plethora of sexual enhancement pills at gas station checkouts, Mystery Karaoke Singing Pills allegedly help their swallower sing better karaoke by “loosening your vocal cords and relaxing you so you can sing for longer periods of time.” Unfortunately, singing for long periods of my time isn’t my issue; it’s being able to sing well, even for very short periods of time. Or at all.

Available to those living outside of Japan through the Sugoi Mart by Japan Crate, $10 will get you four pills. Are you supposed to take all four at once? No clue, but I’d double up and take eight just to be on the safe side and make sure you win that talent show you entered.

What are the ingredients in Mystery Karaoke Singing Pills? Your guess is as good as mine unless you guessed “probably nothing approved by the FDA,” in which case your guess was better. I just took a handful for research purposes, and now I can’t tell if I’m about to breathe fire or pass out. Recommended!

That Time Someone Sang Eminem’s “Without Me” in Klingon

The internet is a strange and wonderful place. The nature of its persistent storage means that you sometimes discover things within 10 seconds of them going live, and other times 10 years after they’re posted. This is definitely one of those 10+ year situations, but it’s too good not to share. You see, back in 2009, someone went through the trouble of recording a cover of Eminem’s hit track “Without Me,” but entirely in Klingon.

The video (which looks like it was shot on a potato) was posted by a guy going by the name “Klenginem,” who did a great job bringing the Klingon anger vibe to Marshall Mathers’ punchy rap track. Of course, it’s no longer called “Without Me.” In Klingon, it’s “SuvwI’pu’ qan tu’lu’be’.” Good luck pronouncing that. Well, rather than listen to me prattle on about the finer points of the Klingon language, just press play on the video below:

If that wasn’t enough for you, Klenginem posted the full lyrics to the track here, and you can view the translated English lyrics by turning on closed captioning on the YouTube clip. ‘a DaH Qu’ DataghDI’ ‘aqtu’ mellota’ je chaH tIqawchu’taH!

Official Baby Shark Song Singing Plush Toys


The Baby Shark Song is the catchiest viral song this year and if you have kids and YouTube (or even if you don’t) you’ve probably heard it on repeat several hundred times by now. Well get ready to hear it some more! Because now there’s official Baby Shark Song Plush Toys that play the whole song when you squeeze their bellies. Over and over again. There’s the Mommy Shark, Daddy Shark, and of course Baby Shark. Just like the song, doo doo doo doo.

Super soft and cuddly, and mildly annoying to adults, it’s the perfect toy. And yes you can squeeze the belly to stop the song when you’ve had enough. These were produced by WowWee for Pinkfong, who is the official creator of the global hit song. Thanks Pinkfong, I guess. They measure about 11 inches long and batteries are included so they can start singing right out of the box.

But wait, there’s more- how about Baby Shark Singing Stackable Plush Cubes? Cause they make those too now.

Just like real sharks, these toys are shaped like cubes and can be stacked up like blocks. They’re quite a bit smaller than the bigger sharks above at only about 3″ cubed (plus the fin on top), but they too play the song when you squeeze them. Collect all 3.

Look Like a Fool While You Practice Your Karaoke Singing

Whether you’re a karaoke fanatic or just like to sing in general, your neighbors probably don’t appreciate your voice nearly as much as you do. Well thanks to our friends in Japan, there’s a solution!

This ridiculous looking contraption is designed to let you sing as loud as you want, but without disturbing others around you. From what I can tell, the Utaet Voice Training Silent Karaoke Mic is basically a rubber funnel you sing into that redirects the sound away from the room, and back into your own ear. As silly as it looks, it really does appear to work, cutting your volume by as much as 70%, as you can see in the video demo below:

The Japan Trend Shop has these for sale for $70 each, plus another $20 for shipping. I’m thinking for that price you could just get a funnel and a hose, cobble together one for yourself, and save the rest of your money for singing lessons.

ASUS’ Zenbo Robots “Sing” a Holiday Classic

ASUS just held an event in Taiwan announcing the availability of its Zenbo robot. Starting on January 1st, customers in the country can get their own Zenbo robot for between $620 and $780(USD). At the launch event, ASUS did something that is simultaneously cute and terrifying. They got a choir of Zenbos to perform Mariah Carey’s Christmas classic, All I Want For Christmas Is You.

It basically sounds like a bunch of screechy and off-key demon children from hell singing this song, but at the same time it’s kind of adorable, so it just makes me feel really weird and uncomfortable.

Those poor people in the audience must have been horrified. Is this cute or creepy? I have no idea, but it’s wrong. Just wrong.
