The Garbage can sits near the desk. Almost full, you do not feel like emptying it, and you are angry at yourcoworker in the cubicle over. By pressing a button on the underside of the desk, an innocent-seeming strutswngs into action, telescoping and splitting to form anarm about a meter and a half long, and a two-fingered claw. The clawgrasps the can,and flingsit over the wall, to land on the head of the unfortunate nearby. With a crank on the desk,you can adjust the angle and directon of the catapult, allowing for great accuracy. after the launch, the can is set down, and by pressing the same button that launched the missle, the arm once again becomes a part ofthe desk.

       The Space Bar serves Rough Draft beer in a tube.   

       And once you have that garbage-flingie thing working, you set it up to run while you're away from your desk.

       This needs to be USB compatible, with a little timing and targeting app that looks like something innocuous. [+]

       I like it. If it looks like the arm of the garbage collector's truck around here, it is evil, and scary, and perfect in OH so many ways.
