Japanese Lucky PooYou've just been dumped. Rather than sending dead flowers or hacking into his or her e-mail account, let your ex know exactly how you feel with this most unusual charm. The Japanese Lucky Poo measures about 0.5 inches in diameter, is covered with a golden metallic substance, and is shaped like poo. Apparently the word "lucky" is similar to the shortened form of the Japanese word for "poo", hence the name.

Your ex can attach it to his or her cell phone, Wii remote, digital camera, or any other product (if they dare). Unleash your hostility for $4.99 a pack or $5.99 for 2 packs at ThinkGeek.com.

The Japanese for poo is "unko", whereas the word for luck is "ko-un"... so the link is a tenuous one because the characters in Japanese are reversed.
