What Is It? game 330

It's once again time for our collaboration with the wonderfully entertaining What Is It? Blog. Do you know what the pictured item is? Can you make up something wonderfully wacky? That's what we're looking for: the funniest and most creative guesses. We will award t-shirts from the NeatoShop to two commenters who post the cleverest, funniest, or most outlandish uses for this thing!

Place your guess in the comment section below. One guess per comment, please, though you can enter as many guesses as you'd like in separate comments. You have until Friday evening to come up with great guesses.

Please write your T-shirt selection alongside your guess. If you don't include a selection, you forfeit the prize, see? May we suggest the Science T-Shirt, Funny T-Shirt and Artist-Designed T-Shirts?

Now, you don't have to know the answer to win! Go see many more pictures of this thing at the What Is It? Blog. Good luck!

Update: this item is probably a tear gas pen gun, a lot of similar devices can be seen here. You all had some pretty good answers, too! Berhard came up with a good one: The Doctor's new "Ballistic Screwdriver”! That’s certainly good for a T-shirt from the NeatoShop. Patrick Scott also had a great answer: Pop-up timer for T-Rex roasting! Unfortunately, he did not select a t-shirt. Thanks to everyone who played along this week! See the answers to all this week’s mystery items at the What is It? blog.

This is God's tool. When a politician is born, He uses it to insert one of the small steel beebees into the child's brain. When the child grows up and gets elected, their original brain turns to goo and slowly leaks out of their skulls as they sleep. It looks like snot so none of them notice it. Eventually, after many years in office, the tiny beebee is all that is left in their brain cavity. If one listens carefully to CNN, one can hear the clicking sound it makes as it rolls around in the vast empty space. Because it's God's tool and because he is a fair God, the effects can be seen across all parties, left, right and center.

This is obviously a dental surgery tool for use on the International Space Station. When teeth become infected, it's not cost effective to return home, so instead they wrap the loop around the tooth and then using the lever and spring to pop the infected tooth out quickly and easily (much to the viewing enjoyment of the other astronauts).

The teeth collected this way are then used for astro-science experiments and placed in a jar with a little bit of soda (usually Coke) and then they grow little space colonies and observe their findings.

This is a slide whistle for dogs. It was developed for that one episode of "Wheel of Fortune" where the contestants got to bring a pet. Drove 'em crazy when their owners hit the "Bankrupt" on the wheel.

It's a bolt vacuum. This spring-loaded tool clamps onto a nut or a bolt and then releases, causing a vacuum seal around it. When you couldn't get a good grip before, now it's easy!

It's a lawn aerator for very small lawns. You smash this tool down into your lawn several times per square foot to increase oxygen flow and nutrient-availability to your lawn. The spring is to help knock out the plugs that get stuck.

It's a phrenologist's core sampling tool. One good smash into someone's head and the phrenologist can verify if the message that they read on the bumps of the skull matches the inner depths of the brain. (I shouldn't need to say this, but this is for professional use only. Do not try this at home)

It's a lug nut dispenser. Fill this baby up with lug nuts and you'll never had to scramble around on the wet ground for the nuts you dropped while changing a tire on the side of the road.

This little beauty is a straw, for kids who don't (yet) know the meaning of fear. The spring-loaded action is sure to be a blast at parties, and the hexagonal tip allows imbibers to drink from specialty-crafted juice boxes, to the envy of all onlookers.

This is what the Jedi needed to use in the old days, before a simple button would activate their light sabers. The metal slide would move the crystal into place, and allowing the refracted beam to commence destroying Sith or opening blast doors.

The above is another picture of the item, from the What-is-it Blog. With that in mind...

It is a general purpose griefer and pranking tool, for those who think that stabbing someone's tire is too brutal and unrefined. The little gold part on the end of the tool is used to deflate and remove the valve to inflate the tire. The other end is to remove the lug nuts holding the wheel onto the car. Precise, Ingenious, and Perfect.

This is the tool that you can use to make home-made push pops! Fill the end with orange sherbet, and press the spring to release the yummy goodness. (It releases the easiest when you dip the tool in olive oil prior to inserting the sherbet, but it ruins the taste. There's a reason you don't see these on the store shelves any more.)

This is a Fokkamee spring-loaded mechanical fingernail sharpener with a thing that tells time. No longer manufactured, sorry to say. Why? Because one too many people "had their eyes poked out"! Ralphie went broke with all of those lawsuits...

It's a Bolt-Action Turtle Surpriser (BTS as written on the side), slide back the bolt, place the copper end against the turtle's butt and then ...... surprise!!!

Oh for sure easy. That's a blasting cap/device mechanism that's a spring loaded tube for triggering an explosive blast. Used in above ground coal mining for example where the explosives are buried in the area they want to blast, is connected to a tube that holds a type of explosive, which then the safe end is connected to this blasting cap silver tube, which has a small gun powder/cap inside it which when hit with the pull backed spring trigger, ignites the explosive blast! Or a giant bubble of bubble gum... depends on what they put down the hole.

Oh, man; finally one that I know and someone beat me to the punch! Unfortunately, I'm unable to come up with anything more witty than what's already been said... It's a small caliber pyrotechnic flare gun - flight crews were issued these (but ours were painted black) when I was in the military, for signalling if they ever "went down..." (we don't say the word *crash* ). They're also great for celebrating the 4th of July!

James Bond's martini olive extractor. And distress locator beacon. Also fires a single .32 round. And has a tiny diamond edge saw. But ostensibly it's just an olive extractor, thus the B.T.S. on the side (British Tavern Supply).

Hi !
It's a "Bouga", a device designed to kill a rhino, used by teenagers from a distant tribe of Africa.
When teenagers must pass to adulthood, they go in the deep jungle, alone, with 99 cabbages and a brussels sprout.
Every day, they put on the ground a cabbage, and rhino comes and eats it.
The last day, they put the brussels sprout on the ground, then rhino comes to eat the cabbage, sees the brussels sprout, says "this is not a cabbage !", rising his eyebrow in the six million dollar man Steve Austin's way, and that's where the hunter applies the Bouga on the eye of the rhino, pulls the trigger, and kills the beast.
