Designer Blind Spots?

Ok, those glasses with the thick arms, what's up with those things? It's like self inflicted 'tunnel vision'

I have a couple reasons why they aren't a good design...

First thing is driving safety, while driving, you already have a blind spot with your vehicle, now you are making another blind spot while wearing these glasses with, basically, a wall around your eyes.

Next is just personal safety, you can't really see around you at all, you really have no peripheral vision. Which means you can't see any person approaching you from any side, other then straight. I wonder if muggers look for people wearing these things.

Bottom line: Don't be dumb, pay attention to your surroundings...

um...Car Key Hostage?

Ok, Yahoo recently posted the Top 5 Car Dealer Scams to Avoid...

This was number 2...

2. Confiscation:

Whatever you do, don't give up your keys to your current vehicle - even if the "used car manager" asks for them to asses the car for it's trade-in value, even if the sales manager asks for them as collateral while taking a test drive. If negotiations should go amiss, it's impossible to walk out on the deal if you have no way to start your car.

Are you telling me that a dealer would take your keys and not give them up until you buy a car from them? Are you serious, I can't believe Yahoo would even post such BS. I'd like to see a dealer take my car hostage until I signed a deal with them, I'd really like to see that.

Bottome Line: WTF!

Super Strength?

Ok, Krazy Glue...works great! But here's the thing about this ad, there's no way this guy can support his own weight by squeezing his arms on a hat...while smiling?

I bet he can't even do one pull up! LOL!

Just had to say something about this,

always thought it was a dumb ad.

Bottom Line: Who cares...glue stuff.

Hand scooped? Who cares?

Hand scooped ice cream...is that really a selling point? Ooh, someone scooped it by hand...

Does it really matter how it's scooped it as long as it tastes good. I'd rather it say Hand-Made or Home-Made or something about how it was made, rather than how it's put into a container.

Bottom line: Just serve good ice cream, doesn't matter how it's scooped.

Lovin' it?

McDonalds McCafe, great idea. The first time I had a medium iced coffee, regular flavor at McDonalds, I loved it. I was instantly hooked. Then I went to another McDonalds and ordered the same thing, not so good the 2nd time. Even worse the 3rd time. I go back to the original place most of the time for coffee now.

Problem is...consistency. Every McDonalds makes it different. I even had one that was almost transparent (like water). I wish it came premade and they just dispense it into a cup.

Bottom Line: Bod Dop Bop Bop Bommmm....I'm Likin' It?

Space Helmets with lights...inside?

Ok, I know it might look cool and all (most of the time it really doesn't look cool), but a helmet with a light on the inside shining at your face?

That's just dumb. All you're going to see is a reflection of your own face in the visor, if you can see past the LIGHTS SHINING IN YOUR EYES!!!...WTF!?

I know...we have to see your 20 million dollar actors face...but it's just rediculous.


Bottom line...the design is dumb.

Supermarket Deli Case...

Have you seen those cases in grocery stores where you can get what looks like pretty good food?

It does 'look' good at first glance, but upon closer examination, most of the food in those open refrigerated cases has glazed over with a nasty thick coating and has absorbed most of the flavors of the other uncovered foods in the case.

Most of that food isn't cheap either, I think they should have to cover each individual container.

The worst part, when you order something they stir in the nasty thick layer that has formed on top with the rest and then serve you...WTF!?

Bottom line: I don't want chicken salad that tastes like olives, tuna salad and shrimp.
