If you are willing to pay $20.00 for a 1G novelty USB flash drive, this may be just up your alley.  This thumb drive is shaped, ah hem, like a finger.  Yes, something close to a visual pun but not quite.

This device is available on Etsy for a cool Jackson.  It is designed to look like a severed finger, complete with faux blood around the USB end.  The drive even comes packaged as crime scene evidence in its own zip lock bag with “CRIME SCENE” placed prominently across the bag for those who might fail to understand the joke.  Perfect for a Halloween gag gift for that special someone in your office or at home.  Even better for those poor souls with Halloween birthdays - a practical yet creepy gift.

If you have a multiport USB add-on be sure you plug it in carefully so that the wrong message is not sent.  OK, plugging it in carefully might actually send the correct message, but remember to say “Oops, wrong hole!” if anyone should comment on it.  Needless to say, this is one USB drive that lends itself to off-color humor.

This drive can also be used for your little computer users who will really enjoy the creep factor while missing most of the more sordid joke aspects of the drive.  Taking this USB number might just land them higher up the geek/cool scale and because is really is a USB drive, will probably avoid the normal teacher-confiscation of anything fun.

$20 is a lot to spend for just 1G of memory, but what you are really paying for is the comedic yuck factor.  This drive does come hot swappable, plug and play, without the need for any additional drivers.

Buy one now for the whole family on Etsy!
