ThinkGeek Offers Holiday Prank Gift for the Perfect Cruel Yule Joke
November 17 2010 - 3:00PM
Today, ThinkGeek releases the perfect gag gift for the 2010 holiday
season, the TannenBomb Prank Christmas Ornament. The TannenBomb is
an attractive Christmas tree ornament that doubles as a devilishly
clever prank device. Joining the ranks of other fiendishly popular
products in the ThinkGeek Annoy-a-tron family, the TannenBomb
Ornament emits random ear piercing sounds to create holiday mayhem.
Once placed on the tree, the weight of the hanging ornament
activates the ThinkGeek TannenBomb. Then, every 30 minutes or so,
the TannenBomb will chime off one of several sounds: a beep,
chirping crickets, a high frequency noise or an elf giggle. The
noise is enough to drive the receiver of this "gift" crazy as they
desperately look for the source of chaos, but the sound is short
enough to make it impossible to locate and the interval is random.
This combination makes the TannenBomb a gift that truly keeps on
giving.
The TannenBomb is the ultimate gift to fool your friends, family
or office co-workers. Just slip the ornament onto your office
Christmas tree or take it to your next holiday party, then sit back
and enjoy the bewilderment of holiday revelers. Make sure not to
laugh out loud though, or you'll get caught as the culprit.
The round silver ornament features a geeky zombie and robot
design with red accents and a white bow. There is no on/off switch
on the TannenBomb. The weight of the ornament activates the device
when hung on the tree. Batteries are included which will power the
TannenBomb's mayhem for about a month... let's hope it doesn't go
on for that long for the recipient's sake.
The TannenBomb is available now on ThinkGeek.com for $11.99. For
more information, contact PR representative Jessica Darrican at
