The Real Mouse Mouse - It's Real, It's Dead, It's Nasty
It's Real, It's Dead, It's Nasty

What a horrible idea… (somebody must be on a bender!) The idea that a computer mouse resembles a real mouse is mildly amusing. The reality of someone taking a real, dead mouse and modelling it into a computer mouse is just plain sick. However, this is what was done by a couple of Indestructables.com contributors. This is definitely and example of creativity gone wrong.

When someone at the Stanford Research Institute first decided that the pointing device they'd just invented looked sort of like a mouse, they probably didn't imagine that one day, someone would make this - a mouse that is actually made out of a mouse. The mouse mouse was created by Christy Canida and Noah Weinstein, both regular contributors to the Instructables website - a community site devoted to making cool stuff. The mouse mouse is made using the skin of a real mouse - bought (already dead) from a pet store in Berkley, where they kept frozen mice for feeding to snakes. (metro)
