$25Įverybody has those days… You’re sitting there in the office on a 12-hour work bender, trying to stay focused. But don’t be fooled by its age-there’s a reason why these all-steel contraptions are still boggling minds today. It is said that knights would give these types of puzzles to their wives before they left on adventures or quests or whatever the fuck else knights would do in the Middle Ages, in order to help them pass the time. This puzzle itself is a real ball-breaker, but the design is classic and dates all the way back to the Middle Ages. Sometimes it’s important to just keep things simple. You’ve spent more money for a pizza than you will on this drone. The best part about this fun little contraption is its price. Today, there are precision 4-channel nano drones that weigh less than 12 grams, have 6-axis flight control systems, and can do backflips at the touch of a button. $17+Ĭonsumer drone technology has developed light years beyond what anyone probably thought it’d be even five years ago. They’re easy to maneuver and work great for mindless toying around, especially in a place where silence is crucial. They can be molded into anything from cylinders and pyramids, to ropes, globes, boats, bridges just about anything your brain can come up with.

It’s kind of mind blowing how fun a pack of tiny magnetic balls can be, but we really do love these little things. Luckily, for the boring times in between all the client meetings, email chains, and report deadlines, there are plenty of ways to amuse yourself at the office. But we make the best of it, because scotch is expensive and a guy’s gotta drink. The one percent of the time it sucks is when we’re strapped to our desks at work with nothing to do but think about all that other great adult stuff. You get to eat whatever you want, have guests over late, travel, watch all the Netflix you can handle… Ninety-nine percent of the time, the adult life is great. If you’re doing it right, growing up actually kind of kicks ass. We aren’t the kind of people to say that being an adult is a bummer.
