I had one of those. lol Athough I didn't make people feel it obviously but
it was a ovelty kind of thing.
They also had some really cheesy coffee mug that said something like good to
the last dot or something. And it had some Braille thing on it.

I did hear of a braille shirt that had a little thinggy on it that said: "If
you can read this, you're too close."

I like the idea of the Braille Rubik's Cube. I have enough vision that if
I hold one of the regular ones up to my eyes, I can match the colors on the
real ones. But I have a hell of a time doing even that. But then I got wise
and just pealed off all the stickers. Heheheh! It worked yay! All the colors
were then the same. Sorta defeats the point though, eh? Hah.
I also found the solar-powered retinal chip interesting but it seems kind
of ironic though. Can you imagine the ads for this thing?
Solar-powered retinal implants: Just add light to get your sight. Gag!
But Braille neck ties? Braille wine and beer bottles? Do I need to read my
label in order to drink wine or beer? Hell no. Do I need to feel Braille on
a man's tie? Kinda strange and, um, blindy. Init? I like the spiritual idea
behind it in that the designer is trying to open doors to understanding of
the colors and what they represent.
This is amusing. The things people think of... Whoa.
