What Is It? game 340
It's Thursday, so you know what it means, Neatoramanauts: it's time for the What Is It? Game, brought to you by the always amusing What Is It? Blog. What is the object in the picture above? Your guess can win you a free T-shirt of your choice from the NeatoShop. Here's how to play:
Place your guess in the comment section below. One guess per comment, but you can enter as many guesses as you'd like in separate comments.
You might know the correct answer, but if you want to win a t-shirt, you'll have to use your imagination, because we are going to select two winners who give us the funniest incorrect guesses. If you guess right, then good for ya - but you don't win anything, see? So, it's up to you, funny people: you have twice the chance of winning that T-shirt now.
Please write your T-shirt selection alongside your guess. If you don't include a selection, you forfeit the prize. We highly suggest you take a look at the NeatoShop's new selection of Funny T-shirts and Science T-Shirts.

Update: This is truly a mystery item, obviously a tool, but we still don’t know what it’s for. We had some good suggestions, though. A T-shirt from the NeatoShop goes to Edward for this answer:
It was left behind at Comic-Con by someone coplaying a mashup of Thor and Cupid (Thtupid?)
The name “Thtupid” clinched that one for him. Another shirt goes to Berhard, who went into detail about the tool’s alternative versions:
This is without doubt Thor's fisching hammer, "Troutnir" ... a very light version for nordic god trout fisching...
It throws like a hammer, hits like a harpoon and returns like a boomerang...
slightly less romantic than trout fisching in "A river runs through it" but way more effective..
Thor also has a "sharknir", a "tunir" and a "merlinir" for offshore-fisching...
The only reason it only has a limited success at market resides in that you have to be a nordic god to be able to properly operate this supreme fisching gear...
Congratulations to both! This just goes to show that you guys are pun factories when you have the slightest bit of inspiration. We’ll do it again next week, with another What Is It? game from the What Is It? blog and Neatorama.

Love to be a gReat hacker someday!
Phreakers don't really exist anymore. Mainly because almost all major telecom companies have switche dover to purely digital signals that doesn't use tone generation. Therefore, blackboxes no longer work. Spammers aren't hackers nor will they ever be considered hackers. Spammers are the same garbage that are called Phishers.
Forget it, Im done. Your article is not worth the time nor the effort to actually go into further detail on hacking because you obviously have placed your views into the same category as the rest of the world. This view is simply explained as, "Hacking is bad, all it has done is cause problems, I'm a pawn to society, I don't actually care about learning and I find FOX news to be the single most respected channel on Television to date."
Next time you write an article like this, grow some balls and do it better. Get your facts straight, stop reiterating the garbage we all know and hate because it continues to enforce the prejudice and biased opinions on hacking. Without hacking you would have had no Internet. Go read about Tim Berners-Lee or Richard Stallman.
This last guy is really a happy camper ^
You were 'Done' with it your 3rd paragraph in? Maybe you should have just turned off the computer. Walked in to a library. Found a book about computer history sat down and STFU! But no, you'd have complained to the poor librarian about how outdated this material is.
Do your self a favor, grow some balls and start your own damn blog and tell us all how it is.....or just go hack your fucking Pascaline, bitch.
