tard alert is high.

Have you guys heard of this new search engine called altavista? It rocks hard! When I type in "I'm retarded, please help" it takes me straight to porn, which does help.

What's really amazing is that I'm able to form sentences by randomly smashing my hand and forehead on the keyboard, you know, since I'm a retard. Wonko smash!

Hey, this is how I find new sites to keep an eye on. It's either threads like this or a friend sending it. I don't mind the thread at all.

woot-offs are the best.

random bag of crap FTW!!

Every time I see that phrase it reminds me of an old mad tv skit about a Mexican wrestler called "Senor Sack of Crap"

theac and I recently split a 2 for Tuesday deal on two pairs of bluetooth headphones for $50 shipped.

$25 for bluetooth stereo rocks my face, btw

a little boiling water makes it all the better.

I would love me some wireless headphones

They're pretty good, but not the best I've ever owned. Like Spange mentioned, they're a little uncomfortable out of the box and need a little adjusting. I also think they're a little bass heavy and wish there was a way to fix that.

For $25 I'd barely notice.

I'm inclined to stay away from BT headphones until such a time as they offer them with built in microphones.

I saw WAW accidentally drop $25, laugh, and walk away.

edit: I meant $25k

I just noticed they make bluetook earbuds. I've been waiting for those for a while.

I don't think you'd want to go there. There really isn't the bandwidth for mic and stereo on bluetooth. I'm sure the product will come around, but the audio will probably be compressed.

I've made a few purchased from woot.

My dad is a die-hard wooter. Sometimes, when he gets up in the middle of the night to pee, he stops by his computer just to check to see what the new woot item is. Sad really, but I end up with a lot of wierd stuff. He likes buying gifts for family members.

Anyone want to buy a SaladXpress, cheap & new in the box? (Really, he bought me one). I prefer to be an carnivore, not an herbavore.

 

[b_sinning]

Run a steak through it.

Run a steak through it.

Good idea. If I ever get my jaw wired shut and need steak shavings that I can inhale through a straw, I'll bust that dusty salad spinner/chopper out of the closet.

Or re-gift it this Christmas.

That right there is exactly my fear, which is probably why I'll stick to my USB Plantronics Uber Headphones of Kick-assedness (+5 to all saving throws vs. sucking)

Uhh, they do. Infact, that first pair looks really nice.
