New Pet for SOC Students :)

You know there's a pet that need not to be fed, trained, walked, bathed or groomed.........?
Sounds good right? This is especially suitable for us, the geeky computer students! Who are always busy in front of the computer screens.

Introducing you the.................

Pet Rock!


Cute or not......? haha!
This is not a joke! You can actually purchase Pet Rock online.
Well it was initially a joke. The creator was casually talking to his friend about how troublesome it is to take care of a pet. Later on he took the idea seriously thus the born of Pet Rock!
(*Small fact: he then made a million dollars out of this! $_$)





Best of all, the second generation is a USB Pet Rock. So we can keep the "pet" right next to us all the time! Suit us even better right :)


Can you start imagining these little rocks sitting obediently beside your laptop? :)

Check out the video below:



Other than that, with the purchase of the Pet Rock it comes with this little manual which teaches users how to "train" their Pet Rocks. Such as how to sit, roll over and attack. LOL.
Of course these will require help from the owner of Pet Rock. :)

  1. Diaoz! Weird concept... So the rock cant move or anything? Whats the use of plugging it to usb ? As an external hard drive? lol

    They should at least make the rock vibrate or beams with a smiley face=)
