I want this

Via we make money not art comes news of Phil Worthington's Wearable Warnings (clothing that bites back). The prototype coat acts like cat fur only better. That is to say, when the wearer feels threatened, the fur on the coat's back stands on end and then if the creep doing the threatening touches it, the coat shocks him. Here's a Quicktime video example of a thwarted assault. (I think I may have to beef up the Commodity Fetishism section on the sidebar. This tip alone should earn we make money not art a place of honor.)
