Would you buy this milk?
« on: December 17, 2009, 01:26 PM »
Just look at the reviews!   :tellme: :P

There seems of be a whole subculture of mock-ecstatic reviews for odd products - just check out the "also viewed items."  I was particularlly taken by the creative uses suggested for the Laptop Steering Wheel Desk
If you don't see how it can fail -
you haven't understood it properly.

The laptop steering wheel ought to be a real "hit," I'd say.  If you don't believe me, take a look as some of the customer images and read some of the reviews here   ;D

At least it says "5 new" and doesn't mention used, like the Wonder Bread page once did.

Brill! It could also double as a baby "changing station." Just the thing for all those busy soccer Moms with newborns...  :P

My copilot and I both used these during our "daily grind" transcontinental flights from San Diego to Minneapolis. We had to modify them a bit to fit snug against the instrument panels (when we bought them we didn't realize the planes we fly don't have steering wheels!), but in the end it did the job. With our laptops firmly in place we were able to focus our attention on what really mattered, participating in raids with our WoW clan. During our last flight we were so immersed in trying to take down Eranikus that we overshot Minneapolis by a full hour and a half before some annoying flight attendant interrupted us, babbling something about "FAA and F16 fighters."
:o :o :o

...obviously that one is a fake (still funny though!), but pilots are insane beasts. Friend of mine lives with one, after seeing the condition he's sometimes in when he heads for work - eek.

up to $2,500 :tellme: although the $2,499 offer sounds better: "will hand deliver, then come in and make you a Tiramisu with product in your kitchen" :P
