USB Engagement Ring

By Luke Anderson

How many of you are married out there? How many of you proposed (or were proposed to) with a ring that could be plugged into your computer? I’m going to go out on a limb here and guess that none of you are raising your hands right now. I’ll also advise that any of you thinking about popping the question should seer away from this USB Engagement Ring.

My wife is a pretty geeky girl, however, I can guarantee she’d have laughed in my face if I’d brought this in a box. She loves her tech just as much as the next girl, but she says that this one crosses a line. Sure, it’s novel that these two rings (yes, there’s one for the guy) fit together and can transfer data, but I don’t anyone that would actually wear these as wedding rings.

These appear to only be concept pieces for an art show. Hopefully we won’t actually see these on the market anytime soon.

  1. I can vouch for that. I am geeky (not yet married) but you have to do some things the traditional way. Or at least find something geeky buy not this silly… And girls like PRETTY things – which this is definitely not.

  2. “Wow, I just watched the Cartoon Planet where they were talking about Barnacle Boy! ”

    wow! really! wow again!
    I watched an episode of Sponge Bob, and not only did they talk about Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy, but they were even on the show. They’re “characters” on Sponge Bob. Wow, wow, wowwee!

  3. I for one haven’t seen them in weeks. I swear, it was just a random comment, the first that came to mind after seeing this “ring gesture” photo. Spongebob’s everywhere! 🙂

  4. i hope i don’t sound like a homophobe, but does anyone else notice that for something that’s suppose to be an “engagement” ring set, it’s actually 2 dudes hands that are wearing it?
