The Stupidest Infomercial EVER!
I have seen so many, and I can't believe that so many people fall for this shit...Do they think that people who are up late at night are too sleepy and brain addled to see what kinda crap they're trying to feed them?...I actually KNOW someone who buys this crap (even though he usually ends up sending it back, after the product arrives and he can actually see UP CLOSE what kinda garbage he has bought)....I wonder how many people receive this stuff in the mail, take a look at it, and think, "How in the hell could I have fallen for such bullshit?"...It seems to me that ONE incident would be enough to teach them a lesson (if they weren't actually intelligent enough to know what a scam it was to begin with), yet some people just KEEP doing it...
So, anyway...You've all seen them...Which one do you think is the absolute worst?...Have YOU ever fallen for any of it?....C'mon, be honest ;)

for me, it was the two-sided pancake pan. The one that was basically two silverstone frying pans connected by a hinge so that you didnt spill things when you flipped them....
They show the person burning cheese in it and "It slides right out!" No SHIT! there are 8 million non-stick products out there that do the exact same thing, with no monthly payments... Learn how to use a fucking spatula. What kills me is the black and white "Dont you hate?" parts at the beginning of these commercials that have people doing things that a person with severe retardation would know better than to do.... Like frying eggs in a dry pan and trying to flip them with a fork...:rolleyes: Or the commercials for that stupid chopper thing (you put it over whatever you want to chop and push down on the plunger, it spins and chops....) They have someone cutting on a board by pushing stright down with the knife and twisiting it to the side. If you cant operate a knife, you certainly should not be operating something as dangerous as a stove.... but dont worry! Ronco has a rotesserie which will make things easier for you! and people wonder why Americans are so lazy and stupid. We have "easier" solutions for some of life's simplest acts...

Remember the Flobie? Hook an electric shaver to a vacuum. Save money and humiliate you kid, quickly and easily.
I also always loved Chia Pet commercials. "The perfect gift for family and freinds". yeah right... Everyone i know asks for a terra-cotta hadgehog covered in alfalfa sprouts....:rolleyes: Of course, for camp value, i have known people who recieved chia pets as gifts and loved them. Bree got me Chia Homer and Chia BArt for Christams a couple of years ago. i haven opened bart yet, but i loved homer. i should break them both out. We could use some mroe plant life in the house :D Im so classy.....
