USB Pet Rock from ThinkGeek

[deathwithin45]

@dawood88 Yeah Well Mine Can Stay Years Without Moving HA!

[Jeyekomon]

lool I want one of those!!

[RavingReviews125]

Got mine today! Already having interesting conversations with it and he's sooooo happy! Best part is....HE'LL NEVER PASS AWAY! (At least not whilst I'm alive. But I'll pass him down to my children and they'll pass him down to their children etc)

[danimal519]

sadly he got ripped off more by apple than thinkgeek. This guy is the ultimate sucker

[TheAiDaN2110]

mine loves me

[ChaoticCubizm]

lol, he's using a mac. What a fool.

[nikkisixxual]

Shutup and take my money

[DavisBaker007]

@TheOneAndOnlyMrJLB

Unplug him

[cplover3009]

Why are they telling us in captions what the rock is doing, we can clearly see it moving.

[Cytrome]

lol these comments are hilarious.

[TheOneAndOnlyMrJLB]

I'm having a staring contest with mine, but it's been for 8 weeks straight. I keep telling him I want to stop, but he doesn't say anything! Can anyone please help! I have not slept in 56 day's! Please!

[michimumi]

yes but...will it blend?!

[plackfuly]

I Have a pet rock,but mine is wireless. ,':D

[sonicrocks942]

Many people in the 70's get a pet rock, no one complains.

Modern usb version released, "UMG THIS IS STUPID."

[Carcassfan891]

I love my new usb pet rock

[vilkas8]

10 bucks? For a rock with a cable? What The Fuck.

[DjOxymoron]

@vilkas8 funny idea, but i agree...

[Kookas]

@vilkas8 actually, it's 9.99, so you don't need the whole ten.

[vilkas8]

@Kookas Oh Shit, what a deal!

[MrDrNo1]

It looks like the only thing it's good for is using up USB ports

[RadioactiveCheese0]

Why do I want one?!

[saintdoke]

My pet turd with USB cable in it only $9.99 it does everything

[fieroturbo]

Awesome! This will give my PC the same capabilities as an iPhone!

No properly functioning antenna, no built-in QWERTY keyboard, no USB ports in it, no interchangable memory, no interchangable batteries... EXACTLY like the iPhone4 !!! :)

[AGeekForever]

@fieroturbo Can it download apps from the App Store? LCD? Does it have a battery? Does it run an OS? Does it have RAM? Can you call people with it? Can you use its built in touch screen? Can you view photos? Can you watch movies? Can you listen to music? Can you take video with it? Can you take photos with it? Can you facetime people with it? Can you email people from it?

The list goes on...

[JawhnL5]

@AGeekForever Has an OS. Rock OS X 10.6

[AGeekForever]

@JawhnL5 dude! I completely take my previous comment back.

[PlKatxu]

@blade568 It works!

[Muzzles56]

How about instead of spending your money on this pointless device, you can donate it to a charity or buy something that is actually woth something

[ForToday03]

wtf is the point of this? it would be WAY WAY cooler if it was a storage device. this is shit

[066popcom]

"USB Pet rock wishes you would call more often."

"USB Pet rock is suing for neglect"

[HugAcreeper12]

...W.T.H!!

[FlyinPlatypus]

i like my USB Pet Joan Rivers more, its much more realistic...

[popkatie91]

what does it really do



[BishouNoTeresaX]

@popkatie91 It keeps you company, of course ^_^ What more could you ask from a pet? You love it, and it loves you back!! =D

[popkatie91]

@BishouNoTeresaX ah yes, of course

[BishouNoTeresaX]

@popkatie91 <(^_^<) <3 *prrrr~~*

[popkatie91]

@BishouNoTeresaX meow

[jmannunez]

@popkatie91 if u get it to move 1cm by itself running only on the power of the sun. it will open a it will rip a hole in the fabric of the universe and unleash its secrets its been keeping for 100's of years of being a rock with a cord stuck up his ass.

But this is just theory, my rock has only moved .99 centi~...wait...what. oh..my....god!

[bucktoofus]

gay balls.

[MegaJesusfreak2011]

If only the rocks could talk. I bet they are older the greek language.

[nerdra]

My pet rock is the only sort of pet I am allowed to have in my apartment.

[cullendisorder101]

WIN :)

[bryan314]

I had a pet rock v1.0 back in the 70's....but I took it for granite and it ran away.

[themustangman1000]

I'm hate having to ask this, (I do consider myself a computer geek) but what does it do?

[slylover123]

Why does it want me to call more often? It's a pet rock, not my girlfriend.

[tonyt3hpirate]

mfw hipster mac user

[AK1337H]

Wait is it a real rock?

[RockyRoady999]

what do u need the USB part 4

[manomow]

@RockyRoady999 Nothing. Its just a "more advanced" version of the original pet rock. The usb part is just for looks.

[dawood88]

Mine can stay hours without moving

[starlightmishi]

@dawood88

That's because it's dead. You killed your pet! Poor thing!

[dawood88]

@starlightmishi Damn. I tought he was just hibernating.

[TECRH]

most primitave object turns into the most advanced

[TheMorninGamer]

so wait... what's the USB for?

[Wast3m]

@TheMorninGamer to charge the rock up. duh

[guest2424]

@TheMorninGamer profit.

[starlightmishi]

@TheMorninGamer

For power. Duh! Pet rocks feed off delicious electricity.

[Rawbex]

I kinda just want to buy this due to how amazingly pointless it is. :D

[3DGwolf]

@Rawbex XD u seriously made me lol

[tamiktamik]

lol

[ladyaurora777]

What an adorable pet. But I'm not sure if it would get along with my cat since she sits sometimes on it.

[MonsterEnergyMan]

Can you make an eSATA version? I want mine to be faster.

[flamingfigures]

It's even Mac compatible??????? What sorcery is this?

[schredder12]

@flamingfigures You can run it on linux to :D

[flamingfigures]

@schredder12 Everything runs on linux, which is why I'm debating getting a USB 3.0 (before it gets too consumer friendly) implant... hardware comes first, linux is inevitable.

[impregnent]

That is the best thing I've ever seen! It would be cool if there was, like, a little screen that made faces (:D D: :S ._.)But this is still great

[mosinpwnage]

sit, stay still ,roll over, play dead , good rock!

[MateusSFigueiredo]

Does the computer recognizes it?

[MrTodd198126]

@MateusSFigueiredo Yes! Mean says "Yoo hoo, Pet Rock, nice to see you again" Each time i plug it in...so yea i guess it reconoses it

[TheCagamerda]

oh i have plenty off them in my garden and they are wirelless xD

[proximxr]

You guys at ThinkGeek need to stop having anal sex with mac...

[axelasdf]

I bought three!!!

[tfeth282]

does it have softwere?

[vimlopop]

Pet rock = mad

USB Pet rock = stupid

[psylent911]

does it do anything at all? Any software involved or is it a rock with a cable?

[FCule]

the stupidest thing i have ever seen in my fucking life!!!

[lukejennings456654]

@FCule i hope your mum gets hit by a bus

[FCule]

@lukejennings456654

I hope your family dies of cancer

[Rand0mB0x]

@FCule for that, I bestow upon you the word of ultimate disambiguation: NO

[hado123]

lol

[filleman17]

OMG I want one!!!

[modskii]

Wait.. what??

[smokeystriper]

I had one once but it broke a window and escaped :(

[TheGeek1028]

The only thing that could make this better is a 2 TB HDD inside. Otherwise, this thing is fucking awesome.

[Quadunit404]

My biology teacher has one of these for his laptop.

[sodalover477]

I hacked mine for a flash drive. I opened it up, and rewired my flash drive chips in there (4GB). 4GB pet Rock = Popularity o.O

[hotboyfriend55]

what does it do?

[AllUrUtubeRbelong2me]

It doesn't do a goddamn fucking thing. It's stupid and pointless and retarded. But for some reason, people actually seem to think it's "cute" or whatever. And now I'll probably get hammered with the thumbs down from those same people.

And that's fine, but at least before you buy this stupid thing, please consider sending your money to a charity of some kind instead so that the money isn't wasted on a piece of worthless shit.

[AnimeAdmirer22]

Obviously you abuse your pet rocks, so they refuse to obey you. You're a bad owner and you should feel bad. Last month my pet rock helped me finish a college essay; he got a steak for dinner.

[AllUrUtubeRbelong2me]

Ok maybe I was wrong about the pet rock. My bad. He sounds pretty cool. Tell him I said hi.

[Truth1590]

@AnimeAdmirer22 Do you have any advice for me as my pet rock is neglecting meals and showing alarming signs of defiance and passive aggressiveness? I do not know what I'm doing wrong

[doshindude]

@AllUrUtubeRbelong2me U mad? calm down. If you don't like it, don't buy it. Seriously. I think It's hilarious just to have, especially if you work at an IT help desk like I do.

[smaza2]

captain sensible strikes again...

[revolutionaryspirit]

Maybe you could spend all the time you spend commenting on youtube videos volunteering for charities so that your time isn't wasted on these worthless shit comments.

[AllUrUtubeRbelong2me]

You're right! You really pwned me! Perhaps you could take it even further by suggesting I abandon all modern technology & industrialized society & move off to some third world country and dedicate my life to helping impoverished developing countries. On second thought, how about you STFU.

How do you know I don't already volunteer my time for worthwhile causes in my community, and in my spare time, I take a few minutes out of my day to watch some videos & post a few comments? You imbecile.

[diddylopp]

@hotboyfriend55 its there

[Zeeeeeek]

love this thing =)

[Shoxpyre]

How to make the idea even better? Give it memory inside so he remembers things for you ;D no but really they should make it a drive so it at least does something. It could be as easy as routing it to the ripped out usb cord memory drive. Do they still sell those things?

[AGeekForever]

@Shoxpyre I think you are really missing the point of it.

[DontPutSpiceonRice]

guys! i emaled thinkgek and the said you can buy it now! i might get one free with tg points!

[darkangelsv1]

It's useless, stupid, easy to make and I'll take twelve.

It's hilarious.

[DontPutSpiceonRice]

so its not a joke... i went into checkout w/ this and it dint say anything about april fools, so im definitly gona buy dis! i;ve been wanting a faitful pet rock for years! (my last 3 ran away O.o)

[Bru2712]

What a USELESS invention.

[JuJuTJ]

i got one for christmas (:

[AceAttorneygirl]

It rocks so much XD

I will get one soon xD I can't wait for it XDDD

It's so freaking awesome and cute x3

I will teach mine to remind me of things I always forget XD

[homelesstaco]

best idea. ever.

[suiteangel45]

what does it do??? I don't see anything.

[whoarentyou]

it does everything a pet rock does... which is much more than your imagination can concieve

[frenomen]

si le ponen la manzana de apple o el logo de sony me lo compro..!!!

[mille666]

awesome

[reded20]

best. idea. ever.

[tubulartubular]

I already have one, it's wireless though ;)

[Quinklong]

You lucky duck! I have a cheapy one that has to be SOLAR POWERED. Ugh.

[TheMan0092]

@tubulartubular haha

[antdude]

Can it pass virus? ;)

[Imapcaddict]

Ima teach mine to roll over

[RandomDirectors]

I tought mine to stay.

[ArtemisFowl4311]

so selfdependant

[MovieMaker319]

I would pay any amount of money for one.

[hcitecnarf]

I would honestly spend $15 for this if you sold it. I have been looking to buy a pet rock for about 5 years, haven't found one...

[bob10001234]

Yeah, it's pretty hard to find one that's compatible with you. My dad always said, "You don't pick the rock, it picks you"

[ohxietviet]

@hcitecnarf Ok well they're selling for $9.99 so now you can follow through with your word and buy it lol.

[mateoo612]

i want one!!!!!! i dont care is a joke

[GronkAkowA]

i still want one :(

[gameking008]

no wonder it has a different url than the usual thinkgeek product urls. it is an april fools joke.

[YhetyProductions]

If you click the 'BUY' button it says "GOTCHA! Happy April Fools Day!"

[antdude]

Not anymore!

[ferrariguy1988]

it says availability "70's" ha

[turnitupproductions]

it would be cool though, like if it was an external HDD or a flash drive.

[wereguy2]

Fuck, I NEED ONE!

[SamyFatty]

wat the f**k???????????????????

[turnitupproductions]

It was april fool's day, dumbass.

[Dodgyasdf]

but they really sell them. so... not a joke? if i had an extra 8$ i would def buy one. i don't think it's a joke. useless USB enabled rock is srsbzns.

[idioticrandomguy]

why do you plug it in?

[high234]

there is no point to plug it in .... yea i dont get it ether

[boom1208]

look at the upload date

[high234]

why?

[boom1208]

because it was posted for april fools day.

[high234]

but then why are they realy selling it

[boom1208]

but considering it is a joke i imagine i t either says it's out of stock or something preventing you getting one or they have just put a USB port in a pet rock and it is still a joke product. Their sale of the item doesn't mean it isn't a joke

[BrothersTwilight]

If you click the 'BUY' button it says "GOTCHA! Happy April Fools Day!"

[thejellyfish47]

idioticrandomguy, it send invisible fish into your computer through the cable!!!!! QUICK!!! TO THE ESCAPE POD!!! ZSHOOOM

[idioticrandomguy]

wtf? and they call me idioticrandomguy!

[aFARTaDAY]

j*nk for 8 bucks... :(

[ArabianHills90210]

Most Viewed Pet Rock Video!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[haloplayer9697]

i highly doubt this but if true cool

[Furdana]

This thing ROCKS!

[pahico]

i want one

[ShadowNam275]

Feels like im April Fooled xD

[lynx0angel]

Yeah it is. I think everything that was on the front page yesterday was April fools pranks.

[shadowace421]

lol, and theres just a wire sitting behind it, this masterpiece took about 2 seconds to come up with

[rabkoi]

coolest USB gadget EVER!!!

I would buy one

[TehMatoking]

You really should make a USB memorystick like this.

[llllWD9543llll]

that would be awesome

[Spiritrunner6]

Dude you guys should seriously make one and sell it. Stick a thunb drive in a clay rock and sell it as an old-fasioned pet rock. It would be a whole new level of awesome.

[pillsburydoughboy8]

little bit akward....

[TheWakkyTank]

Yeah yeah, april fools, you should have rick roll'd everyone at the end.

[erailea]

if you went to their website, you'd see it's not a joke. It's actually a product you can buy. Its a gag running off of the Pet Rock that was extremely popular in the 70's (which was literally just a rock with a simple face painted on it)

[jellis1408]

No, it is a joke. Try to buy it. It brings up a page that says "GOTCHA!".

[dspspwii]

why did you try to buy it

[jellis1408]

No, I just thought that if it were a joke then the "Buy Now" button wouldn't let you go through the transaction. Since you would be buying nothing.

[TheWakkyTank]

actaully, if you try buying it it says gotcha, it's april fools...

[so508]

Whoa... So wut?

[sirukinx]

perhaps it has client software that runs on your desktop with status popups or maybe it twitters or something. If it justs sits there _and_ is usb powered I'd have to say WE ALL NEED ONE!

[MrRoboto1021]

Will this work on my Wii?

[JohnnMulder]

I MUST HAVE ONE

[gamez101]

(^_^)

[shiftlessxl]

USB pet rock better be 64-bit compatible...

[thinkgeek]

It's so compatible, we've made it *forward* compatible to 128bit.

[ericn32]

lololololololololololololol youtube!

[PowerUp999]

oh now I get it! I forgot!

[PowerUp999]

why is the video upside down? please this is serious. and all the comments are wierd shapes and stuff. Please help?

[InfernoNova4]

APRIL FOOLS
