Apr 27 2009BA-BOOM: This Vase Is The Bomb, Son!
Can you believe that's actually the title I used? Me neither. Maybe I'll come back and change it later (read: I won't). So, A Peaceful Bomb Vase is a flower depository designed by Owen & Cloud to look like a bomb. It's supposed to serve as a statement about how not cool war is (despite what video games may have taught you).
Taiwanese design duo Owen and Cloud designed this piece as a statement against war, and the result is a one of a kind, striking piece.
I hate to break it to you, but that's not one of a kind -- I count like thirty of them. Still, I like. And they do carry a powerful message. One about how beautiful bombs can be. No? Make floral arrangements, not war? Okay, so maybe I don't get it. Fun fact: you could almost write a novella about the things I don't know. Almost.

Thanks to Spikey DaPikey, who once dropped a bomb so powerful they had to close the bathroom for two whole days.

They need to customize these with shark faces & soldier tagging like real bombs have

Damn. Does this mean it's too late for me to patent my idea for garden path stepping-stones that look like land mines?!? Invention Submission Corporation, here I come.

@9
dude. that is a sweet idea if you use the antitank mines. The bouncing betties would just look like three pieces of wire sticking out of the ground.

FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake becauise the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie NEver Back down where Max was working on a TV show with YTommy Davidson and Savion glover and after work he drank a 40 of da bomb malt liquor.

We couldn't use these near Boston. Anything left out in the open for more than 3 minutes is called a "hoax device," the bomb squad is called, and everyone freaks out until someone is arrested. I got the police to remove a traffic signal by pointing out that it had lights on it, and was therefore probably a bomb. I got a girl naked by attaching one of those blinky keychain LED's to her pants, and letting the cops do the rest...
@14 - the correct spelling is "wais't"

There're lately quite some yard shots.I think these bomb vases look playful in there.

omg I want one. And then I'll make one myself in the shape of a nose buried airship.

No, thanks. I wouldn't want my kids to play with a "bomb" thing at home
