Thanks to Becca, who agrees they should make giant ones that can be worn as bracelets because I like wearing bracelets.

    The video was kind of funny.

  • So they the saw the Stargate rings from a few days ago and now decided to make their own and got almost $50k in funding. I wish I was capable of thinking of something stupid everyone wants!

    What are Stargate rings? While the post only went live in October, the company started the idea back in March.
