sara_tanaquilOne of my recent favorite mini-timewasters has been surfing Gizmodo. It's surprising how much actual useful information I've picked up along with the dross.
I was reading yet another article about how $2 HDMI cables are just as good as $150 cables (I really wish I had known that before I bought my two HDMI cables last year, at least they were on the "low" end of Best Buy's line...), and came across a passing comment:
"Overpriced cables get hilarious reviews on Amazon..."
... with a couple of links. Half an hour later, and I'm sitting here with tears of laughter streaming down my face.
The whole page is made of awesome, but I was particularly fond of:
My cats chewed on this cable and now they can both speak. One of them is gay and the other wants to kill me. I would have rather not known.
(The cable in question lists for $8,450. Yep, you read that right.)

How its avocado pigment complemented my decor.
Then I grasped its woodgrain handle - here I opened wide the door; -
Darkness there, and nothing more.
