Need a new novelty phone? Fire Extinguisher Phone here to save your day.

The Fire Extinguisher Phone is here to save the day, though not in the way you would expect. Instead of quelling fire, this nifty little gadget will instead allow you to connect on calls like none other and look incredibly geeky while doing so. It’s pretty straight forward. Plug in the phone line, dial a number with the bottom mounted keypad, and proceed to yap away. Cool huh? $22 to yap into a red tank.

AT&T wants to alert you to the inherent dangers of a land line free home: Death!!!

While the title may sound a bit harsh, the actual point or message I’m trying to portray is less threatening. Take the image above, AT&T’s latest attempt to reel in more of your hard earned dollars. Hopefully you’ll notice the counting discrepancy, which at best is god awful. Next you’ll realize that the examples they use are equally terrible. So, to paraphrase AT&T, if you don’t have a landline, you’re going to die a horrible, tragic, preventable death that a landline would have otherwise saved. Right. You can laugh now.
