iLarious, which calls itself the “new comedy kid on the App Store block,” has launched two iPhone apps – iGgression: The Anger Manager and iNabler. What’s interesting about the company is that it was founded by 3-time Emmy winning producer and writer, Fred Graver, who has worked for Letterman, Jon Stewart, Cheers, In Living Color, Norman Lear, Jim Brooks, the Disney Imagineers, MTV Networks, and was the creator of Best Week Ever on VH1. In that sense, the first two titles are just the beginning for iLarious, as they prepare to release many other titles in the future. In the meantime, let’s quickly go through both apps, shall we.
First comes iGgression: The Anger Manager, which allows your iPhone to express your rage for you. There are dozens of sounds like “slap,” “knockout punch,” “shooting stars,” “whip” and “bear attack” available, and you can either make a sound on a press of a button, or time it and eventually surprise your friends and/or colleagues. The application is touted to “turn your iPhone into a virtual weapon” and it could be yours for $1.99. A free, lite version is also available.
As for iNabler, it’s the equivalent of “an evil magic 8-ball,” offering you 100 reasons to behave badly. Phrases included range from “if you don’t, the terrorists win” to “bad idea. do it anyway!” As expected, you can share all of these on Twitter, Facebook and/or via email. The price is $0.99…
