Wait it gets better (or worse):

Presenting the DVD Rewinder(lol)!

I dunno know about you, but I just hate rewinding my DVDs manually after watching them. Thank goodness someone came up with the DVD rewinder to relieve my tired hands. Just snap the disc on top, press the button and watch in wonder as your disc spins up thanks to the "Centriptal Velocity Spindle." It even has its own rewinding sound which if you don't like, can be re-recorded. Show this to your less-technical friends, sit back and enjoy the show. Batteries not included and yes this thing is real and can be purchased.

MTV = Music Television

Actually that was a good invention when the focused on the music... now it's become crap because they've joined the "reality" show bandwagon
 
some of those don't seem as bad after initial inspection.

THe one i've alwys thought got too much bad press was the solar powered flashlight. :down

poor thing
 
i remeber when mtv used to be "cool"
 
The combimouse isn't that bad, but what the hell is the point in the DVD rewinder?

Wow I never thought I'd see 'MTV' and the word 'cool' in the same sentence!
Oh and that is just an urban legend! :p

I didn't know DVD's could be rewound in the first place :eek:
 
This is an actual review:

The first time I used this, I was like... "holy crap that is one serious DVD rewinding monster!"

Saves me time, gas money and comes with a coupon for a free Dan's Deal at Del Taco. I love this thing more than my own dog.

What the heck had these people been doing, using the search button to back the disc up to it's beginning? :whatever:
