Patent Illustration

This is an illustration from a patent application from Sony. They have some feedback controls for the Playstation that will respond to people's emotional responses.
I love the show playing on the TV: the guy turns the crank which keeps kicking him in the ass.
I am sure there is a joke in here somewhere about how Fox News keeps getting people to vote against their own best interests, but I'm not feeling particularly clever today.
And I must admit that what passes for a "health care debate" on the TV machine is WRONG. It is not particularly FUNNY. So the only way that could be Fox News on the TV, is if that is a Health Insurance Company CEO sitting in the chair having the belly laugh.

So where does that leave us?
Sony Patent Illustration = funny.
My metaphore = Not clever.
Fox News = WRONG!

Me neither...
Just continuing the wrong, yet funny theme.

Holy Treasures, Vending Machine Man!

Holy treasures can be had for only 50 cents, from a company named Impulse Amusements.
Those of us who suffer from amusement impulses should be reassured that at least the machine comes with a warning label.
I can't quite read the warning, but it may be the standard safety warning:
"Holy treasures contain small pieces which may cause choking. Do not give to small children. Stained glass may contain lead which is known to the State of California to cause birth defects in atheists."
Then again it might just be a safety prayer... Put your hands together for safety.
If only Indiana Jones had known about this he wouldn't have had to rush all over the world hitch hiking on Nazi submarines to get Holy Treasures. All he needed was 50 cents for Impulse Amusements.

Advertising You Can Get Behind


If you can't read it, the insert card for the seamless briefs says:
"This is the only time when we are getting into your ass"
I don't think the vampire is making any such promises.
