If It Only Came With a Free Toaster...

[Disneyphile]

Ken and I spent the afternoon at the Orange County Marketplace. We found this handy little "robot arm" grabber, and thought it would be great to retrieve cat toys and other small things from behind furniture, etc.:

For $2, it was quite the bargain, but it became priceless upon further inspection of the packaging:

:snap:

Feel free to insert jokes here. (Pun most definitely intended. ;) ) The really scary thing - this contraption is about 3 feet long.

[Mousey Girl]

Ouch!!!!

[JWBear]

Oooo.... I need one!















To get paper towels down from the top self.

[alphabassettgrrl]

Hahahahahaha!!!!!

I'd love to see the Billy Mays commercial for that.

[RStar]

Hygienely insert what- where???? :eek:

And with a robotic arm??!! EWWWW.............

[Gemini Cricket]

That's one way to get lost items...

:D

[CoasterMatt]

I'd love to see the Ron Popeil ad for it :)

Instead of the Showtime rotisserie's "Set It and Forget It!", it could be "Shove It and Love It!" :evil:

Instead of the Showtime rotisserie's "Set It and Forget It!", it could be "Shove It and Love It!" :evil:And the celebrity spokesman could be Richard Gere!

In case you have something stuck in your throat?? ;)

[Not Afraid]

Is the product display next to the Gerbils?

[Capt Jack]

i wonder why they would need 3 feet though...


maybe because you really dont want to be any closer than that to said retrieved item?

you know. "wouldnt touch it with a 10 ft pole...however with a 3 ft robotic arm? sure...lemme at it!"

ok...I just grossed myself out. :(

[Morrigoon]

Well the problem is, if you drop something, say, in the toilet, yeah, you can retrieve it with a robotic arm, but now you have to clean said object AND the robotic arm! What're you going to do that with, another robotic arm?

[RStar]

Is the product display next to the Gerbils?

Why, is one missing?

:eek:

[SzczerbiakManiac]

And the celebrity spokesman could be Richard Gere!grrrr! :mad:

Now see, I heard the story about gerbils totally differently.
i never heard about putting gerbils there... I thought you just duct taped them. (or is that only the story the boys tell?)

[SzczerbiakManiac]

NOBODY does it! It's a fabrication designed to make gay men look like monsters.

[Ponine]

I should rephrase. The way I heard it the story was by 16 and 17 year old boys in hs;
had nothing to do with gay men;
and had nothing to do with placing a gerbil inside your body.

Edited to say:

I'm sorry. I was trying to state that I dont know this story/rumour/misrepresentaion that you are fired up about.
I have never heard of it until today.

I am not trying to make light of your anger, I was trying to say that some of us really had never heard it.

I had heard about gerbils, in HS from boys, but in a whole otehr context.

I was not trying to insult you, or anyone else. Nor was I attemtping to state that gay men are monsters.

I need to apolgize profusely for the fact that i made you think that I was.

I know, I annoy many on this board when I try to smooth over soemthing I said, but I've just been stressing myself out over how upset I made you.

Aww! it's okay, Sweetie. Everybody knows that the only sexual monster that roams around these parts is me. ;) :p

Note to self: pick up robotic arm on the way home. See if it comes in vibrating rubber. Befriend it.

;) :p :D

[RStar]

Oh Ally, you make me blush :blush: !

I had never heard those storys either, but the monsters are the ones that belive that kind of crap. (Second only to the ones making up the crap, of course)

[Kevy Baby]

Kevy Baby...

.....paging Kevy Baby!You don't need me when Ally is around:

Aww! it's okay, Sweetie. Everybody knows that the only sexual monster that roams around these parts is me. ;) :p

http://www.snopes.com/risque/homosexuality/gerbil.aspSorry - bad joke on the husband's part in timing with a Southpark episode we watched just the other night. :( It was not meant to offend or imply that it's true, and especially that we believe it, because we don't.

[Not Afraid]

grrrr! :mad:

Richard Gere isn't gay. And, I doubt that anyone believes it to be true, but, like Urinary Corona, it's a long loved rumor that is part of the common knowledge.

[Disneykat]

I need one for next week, to grab the remote and stuff I will be limited to due to my cast...aw hell DP, just come here for a week mmmkay?

[Not Afraid]

Cast?

[Disneyphile]

Cast?Because she didn't have the handy hygiene inserter, she broke her ankle. Only the power of its hygiene insertiness would have saved her. :(

(And DK, don't tempt me like that - I'd love to take a week off for a visit.)
