This is one I don't think you'll get away with in the office, although I've come up with a few good excuses for you to try on your boss.
1. "A USB lava lamp will improve my productivity as my brain will subconsciously mimic the constantly moving lava and never be idle."
2. "My new USB lava lamp should be regulation for everyone. It's bad for your eyes to look at a screen all day and if I make sure I spend one minute out of every hour looking at this, I can guarantee healthier eyes."
3. "What lava lamp? Oh, that! That's just my new see-through USB kettle, so I don't have to leave my desk any more to make a coffee."
We'd be happy to hear if anyone tries these excuses out and what the results are...meanwhile, the USB lava lamp works just like a regular lava lamp, except that it takes its power from a USB socket. Useful if you have too many of those and not enough regular electrical outlets, I suppose.
