I christen thee, Count Spatula.

Im with Cheeba, Im all about the knife. The other night at work I actually had to show some one how to use a steal to sharpen their blades. They had never even used a whetstone!!! Jesus Fucking Christ, thats like being a writter and not knowing how to use a pen.

*hangs head even lower in informercial purchase shame*

I also have purchased:

Tanning Bed *broken*

A RONCO Rotissierie *broken*

A Scunci (sp) Steamer *used it for about a year cleaning my cars, steaming engines, even worked great for steaming out fouled powder in rifles, but alas it too is broken*

*resisted urge to buy Elvis collector plates* phew.......

There was an informercial for an outdoor bouncing pit that was trying EVERYTHING to sell the stupid product.

"With the bouncing pit, you'll know EXACTLY where your child is! He won't be running into the street or talking to strangers!"

"It's so light! If you use it indoors, you can literally lift it up and vaccuum under it!"

"The bouncing pit is so safe! You could literally unload this shotgun INTO the bouncing pit, and your child would come out almost UNHARMED!"

a HA! i finally thought of one

only cuz ive spent many a sleepless night watchig these craps. i rreally like the food ones, just cuz.. well its food!

anyone seen those ones about those thermal pots? i always wondered about those

ANYWAY. i got lazy and right now am heating up a queadilla in the microwave(ghetto fabulous) when i remembered wbout the 'magic bullet'

its basically like a coffee grinder, slightly bigger, the idea being u can grind ur food in it super fast. making salsa, chicken salad, guacamole, etc etc.

'make your food in 5 seconds time, dont bust out that bulky blender or chop everything by hand!'

jackasses.. u hafto CUT and PEEL everything before u stick it in the machine. that and of course its gonna eb powerful, the damn blades are as big as the bowl itself (as opposed to a blender, the blades ar at the bottom and theres all that xtra space)

anyway.. they put cheese, tomatoes, peppers and chicken together and bledned it. then the stuck it in 2 tortillas and put it in the microwave. but when theyt ook it out, the damn thing had grill marks on it!

GRRRRRRRRRR :mad:

Wasnt "Magic Bullet" also a name for a silver vibrator? I believe i once saw an add for one in "Hustler: Busty Beauties" several years ago. How embarrasing that would be? Getting sued by a dildo company for copyright infringement....

I actually saw this one last night...How can it be touted as something 'new'?...We've had these things since the 50's...We call them 'blenders' :rolleyes:

sounds like those old meat grinders olf folks had - they attach to the end of the table and you feed meat into in and it comes out in these long worms ...

great devices - hard to clean ..

actually dont they have one in one of the monty python credit sequences ?

and in The Wall ..

(apparently the british like these things :)

So, any new ones?...I haven't watched television in FOREVER...You guys still laughing at these stupid things?...Does it seem that there are more now, or less than there were about a year ago?...You guys actually FALLING for any of them? ;)

those damned workout machines..sheesh..
natural glow and the godammned george foreman ovens.
I hate that 'but wait'..order now and you'll receive another set absolutely free..
thats right..and you'll also receive a set of ginseng knives'
SO CALL NOW'..'rolls her eyes'
