Useless shit

So I was reminded about the existence of the Sony Rolly (
http://www.sony.co.uk/hub/rolly-dancing-mp3-player) by an advert on the telly last night! Two hundred and forty pounds?! For THAT? It'd be hard enough at the best of times let alone during The Crunch. All it does is roll around playing music while half the time covering its own speakers, right? There's not some subtle brilliant feature or must-have function that it possesses that makes it worth the money?

As near as I can see, except you're not in charge of it!

How long have the other place been censoring Metropol thread titles on their front page?

yup, since the fucking people thread, our feed to them now passes through their swear filter before going into the front page.

Ah, but would it be breaking TVF rules to try and evade the swear filter in the thread titles?

I've been informed of another even MORE amazing "why the hell would anyone buy this?" item
Here it is, I don't want to spoil the surprise by hinting at what it is before you click.

That is humourous, how did that show go anyway?

I'm expecting the fact you had to ask means it didn't go well at all. Paul's keeping some excellent company in that Amazon shop anyway. His is just one of a variety of canvas prints including one of a benign cervical tumour and another of Hitler.

Why on
earth would anyone want a canvas print of a tumour?! Although i can see the appeal of the Hitler one, I know a few people who would love to throw things at it
The things people buy these days...

I suspect Hitler would be more popular than Paul Ross, simply because he's likely to have more supporters here and there.
