I’ve definitely seen some weird and impractical iPhone cases over the years, so why would I think this trend would ever end. For instance, did you know that if you’re in Japan, you can now dress up your iPhone 5 as a banana?
This wacky thing was spotted by Redditor cirethesquire while checking out the shops in Tokyo. Admit it – we’ve all picked up a banana at some point and pretended it was a phone, but this is ridiculous.

While I love both Donkey Kong and cake, I’m much more capable of finishing a cake than finishing the classic arcade game. I always used to get stuck around level three, and that was on a good day. On the other hand, eight slices of cake is nothing for me. This cake is just perfect then, as it’s the first time I actually stand a chance of finishing a round of Donkey Kong.
It was made a few months back by Rosanna Pansino for her collection of geeky edibles she calls “Nerdy Nummies” – and it certainly meets or exceeds that criteria. DK is just having a great day as he sits in a pile of banana candies, surrounded by a wall of Kit Kats. While it’s supposed to look like a giant barrel, I like to imagine it as a Kit Kat hot tub, loaded with banana bubbles.
Kong is made from fondant, while the bananas are simply banana Nerds candies. Of course, the cake itself has bananas in it and chocolate frosting. Yum. You can check out a video of the cake being created below:

I’ve rarely had to use a handset with my smartphone, maybe that’s because I don’t talk much on it, and most earphones tend to have built-in microphones, so they are perfectly capable of acting like handsets. However, if you talk a lot on your phone, and like the feeling of an old-school handset, check out this funny-looking one, shaped like a banana.
The Banana Radiation-Proof Handset does exactly what its name says, protect your brain from harmful cellphone radiations – all while looking like a monkey’s favorite fruit. It connects via a 3.5 mm audio jack to a bunch of different phones, including iPhones, Motorola and Blackberry phones. Yes, this banana goes well with Apples and Blackberries.
It’s available in 8 different colors over on Amazon and costs $21.99(USD). It’s definitely something fun to give in a gift exchange or as a prank – or to your pet monkey who knows how to use a phone.

Monkeys. Love ‘em or hate ‘em, they’ll always be the one animal species that’s closest to the human race. So what could be more fitting than sitting in a chair that’s made with the monkey’s favorite food in mind?
It looks all sorts of comfortable, too. The banana meat serves as the cushion to seat your in comfort, while the banana peel lets you rest your weary elbows on them after a long, tiring day.
Designed by WamHouse, the banana-inspired seat is actually called the Zjedzony, which is Polish for ‘eaten.’ Makes sense, considering a huge chunk of the banana (chair) has been eaten away.
Looks awesome, doesn’t it? I’d kill to have one of these for my living room.
