Massage mouse to the rescue

We knew this was coming. Ever since the first heated mouse showed up on the gadget scene (yes, there's more than one version), thanks to those prolific but insane people over at Hong Kong-based Brando.

Enter the "USB Mouse with Electrical Muscle Stimulation"--or, as we like to call it, the "massage mouse." Tokyomango says this supposedly therapeutic device "helps work and tone your muscles while you sit and work," offering three modes and 20 speeds.

We're not exactly sure how one would apply the mouse to the lower lumbar region as pictured here, but maybe that's part of the fun. We dare you to try this at the office.
