1.) Bizarre Pet: For this, I would recommend stick bugs. You can often find stick bug eggs on e-bay. Many people in England keep stickbugs as pets, and they are easy to care for, needing only a small living space and ivy or other plants that can be found in one's yard to eat. They don't even need water, really, just for their leaves to be spritzed from time to time. They're also cute and you can hold and handle them.
2.) Weird Game: Shocking Duel is a sadistic but intriguing game in which two players grasp handles that give out electric shocks, first only slight ones, but then as the game continues, the shocks increase gradually. The first person to let go is the winner.
3.) Odd Fashion Device: The Biniki is the world's first "butt bra." And they make them for men and women.
4.) Strange Energy Measurement Device: The Egely Wheel Vitality Meter is a small device created by a scientist named Dr. George Egely. It consists of a small wheel resting precariously on a base with a set of colored lights on it. If someone puts their hand next to (but not touching) the wheel, it will move. It is believed that the wheel moves more rapidly for those with a higher energy (or "vitality") level. The lights indicate how fast the wheel is going. It's also believed that those with very high, focused energy can change the direction of the wheel by willing it so. Egely wheels can be found online.
5.) Crazy Bumper Stickers: There are a ton of create-your-own bumper sticker websites, so why not go to one and create something really random and dada, like "Only the bird knows what the sidewalk really thinks" or "Funky french fries master marital law."
