For people who have more money than common sense

Posted on September 23, 2006 By admin

While browsing on Gizmondo, I found the trifecta of useless, costly crap. I bring you, in order of stupidity:

The $1200 toilet seat

The Panasonic DL-GWN toilet seat has a light that illuminates a bull's-eye in the water at which to aim your stream. Its light has a dual function, also warming the toilet seat. Now call me crazy, but instead of dropping more than a grand on a toilet seat, I'd get a dimmable light switch in the bathroom along with a heated toilet seat, both which can be had for a fraction of that price and accomplish the same thing.

The $1200 keyboard

Now I'm all for stainless steel. It just looks cooler than anything else. However, there are limits. The only thing that this keyboard has going for it, besides being made from stainless steel, is that it has an integrated trackball. No wireless, no integrated card readers, no other gizmos. Just steel and a freakin ball bearing.

$1.89M bra

Korean designers have created a $1.89 million solid gold bra decorated with diamonds during a fashion show in Seoul. Besides being cold, heavy and completely impractical, just look at how it's biting into those poor boobies!!

Quote of the day

The one positive thing you could say about the bread products around him was that they were probably as edible now as they were on the day they were baked. *Forged* was a better term. Dwarf bread was made as a meal of last resort and also as a weapon and a currency. Dwarfs were not, as far as Vimes knew, religious in any way, but the way they thought about bread came close.
--(Terry Pratchett, The Fifth Elephant)
