According to Freud's theory, when regular or habitual expectations are suddenly shattered, there is relief and relaxation from ongoing rational activity.
This explains why we are sometimes struck by something new and strange - there is often some relaxing humor in the absurd and unconventional.
So today's recommendation is kind of fun, there is always the mundane side of work everyday, and spending a little money can buy so many unexpected pleasures, especially suitable for giving to friends as New Year's gifts and having fun with them.
Without further ado, let's begin.
Rainbow Machine
I'm sure you've seen a lot of pictures of a rainbow coming into a room and shining on any mundane object, making it sparkle instantly.
It may not be easy to wait for a rainbow, but then I found out that e-commerce stores sell such cool gadgets as the "Human Rainbow machine"!
With it, colors, shades, angles can be adjusted, and there is even a gradient effect, the kind that will look great when recording video and sending TIKTOK.
It's super simple, with a row of colorful LED lights at the top that change light and dark. The colored light hits the reflective metal sheet underneath, refracts and forms a rainbow that hits the wall and desktop decorations, and you can get a rainbow in the room with one click.
As long as you turn off the lights and use a glossy wall as a background, you can take very nice, artsy photos with it, and it makes portraits and still lifes look great.
The buttons on the base can be adjusted to two modes, which can directly produce a colorful rainbow, or can be adjusted to a dynamic effect to observe the birth and fading of a rainbow, and it's not bad to use it as a nighttime breathing light by the bed.
If you give this New Year's gift to a friend, you're giving him a rainbow!
Vintage film cameras
a friend in Korea told me that there is a popular online vending machine in Itaewon that sells film cameras.
Film cameras feel like a memory of the last century, but the quality of film is still irreplaceable. Now you can buy a film camera for a very low price and get film and a waterproof case!
The actual result comes with a vintage filter, and the captured moments of people and objects have an added sense of antiquity that is infused with time, and unlike the photos stored in cell phones and cameras, the developed photos have an added sense of solidity that can be held in the hand.
Nowadays it is so easy to take photos with a smart phone, but the photos saved on the phone are rarely revived. Instead, it is the film camera that must be treated with care and caution every time the shutter clicks, and the negatives have to be specially developed and waited for a day or two before being retrieved.
They make up old photo albums, and eventually many precious memories are preserved in their physical form.
Give this vintage film camera to a friend as a New Year's gift and record your happy memories together in a photo album.
Phone Lens: Wide Angle + Macro
The simple addition of a wide angle or macro lens to a cell phone photo makes a difference in the feel of the photo, and the key to this cool little item is that it's cheap.
For those of you who like to take pictures with your cell phone, an additional set of small lenses can inspire more inspiration, and when you look at the world from such a perspective, the things you are accustomed to everyday will feel a little different.
Give your friend a cell phone lens as a New Year's gift, and let them have a completely different experience when taking photos.
Recorded Repetition Duck
Those who like to scroll TIKTOK should be familiar with this little duck, and owning such a little duck is definitely one of the happiest things in recent times, haha!
This little duck also feels especially good, very soft, very stable base can be placed directly on the bed, table. The duck normally likes to sit with its head bent, wearing a straw hat and a yellow floral vest with a blue background, full of Hawaiian style.
Give this recorder duck to a friend as a New Year's gift, so they won't be bored when they are alone.
Handheld Game Consoles
A small handheld console with 400 games in it, including childhood memories of Super Mario, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Contra, Islands of Adventure, and more.
Some models come with a two-player controller, which can be played by two people and given to a friend as a New Year's gift or played against a friend.
The actual operation is simple and sensitive, the game screen is smooth and not cluttered, the game is still very good.
But the key pressed for a long time your fingers will be a little tired, another drawback is that it can not be plugged into headphones to use, but the machine has a lower left corner of the slider can adjust the volume, public places directly to the lowest volume is the mute mode.
Give this game console to your friends as a New Year's gift, so you can play games with them to celebrate the New Year.
Summary
With the New Year just around the corner, these are a few small but cool gadgets that are perfect for giving to friends as New Year's gifts, and of course, to yourself to have fun on a regular day.
