Cow Toss

Posted on Jun, 27 2009 by John in Paid

In this 99 cent application, you flick a cow. Then the cow flies down the screen. Yep. Created by Digital Thought Software, this application was featured by CNET as one of the top ten stupid application (coming in at #4). The developer’s latest update adds a “super cool splash screen” and hopes that with this slight change, this application can be considered for the #1 stupid app. Well, you have our vote!

iGouge

Posted on Jun, 04 2009 by John in Paid

iGouge was created for those times when it is not “socially acceptable” to violently poke someone in the eyeball. The question is though, is it EVER socially acceptable to gouge someone…anywhere? This 99 cent application also allows users to soothe the eye they just violently poked by giving it a gentle rub. iGouge also allows you to input the name of the person you’re gouging for that extra personal effect.

iPoop

Posted on Jun, 03 2009 by John in Featured, Paid

This is a good one. It seems like such a legitamate idea, one that is educational and thought provoking, yet why does anyone need an iPhone app dedicated to the quality of poop? Sure, the idea is good – but I think if I was really worried about it I would a) see a doctor or b) I could wait until I got home to just go on a website. At any rate, iPoop is a 99 cent app designed to give you insight into your life based on the frequency, color and shape of your poop. Really.

SimStapler

Posted on Jun, 01 2009 by John in Free

SimStapler was submitted to us and we just had to feature it right away. They say money can’t buy happiness, but does that mean if it’s free it makes you happy? SimStapler is a free application – that simulates an application – that was available on classic Mac OS 9. It allows users to simulate a simulation of stapling paper together. Yep, that’s it.
