A new low... - Page 3

I think this made my day. And for that, I must thank you. I don't want to meet the person who owns one though... the smell of urine would be permenantly grafted onto their body.

I think this is a good thing. People who buy this for actual use will hole themselves up at their computers even more, safely away from the sane, general public. The fewer peeing-at-their-desk weirdos I have to see every day, the better.

Amen. Amen.

Looking at the female adaptor, I can tell you, as somebody who has had a urine test before, that it will require some awkward manuevering to get that thing to work right. Plus, imagine the mess. Easier to walk the 10 feet to the bathroom.

I'd just like to point out that this product has existed for years as a sporting urinal, for people who just can't stand the thought of leaving their fishing boat/hole/hunting stand/whatever else to take a leak. They also have toilet tops that fit on buckets for crapping in. We sell both where I work.

All Thinkgeek really did was look at these things, shake their head, and then say "Let's make fun of them, and gamers, and the stereotypes by tossing the word 'internet' on this."

The female adapter is usually sold seperately, however. And the ones we carry are red.

And of course, there's also the device used in the Senate during filibusters so that the speaker can pee whilst rambling. If it's good enough for a U.S. senator, it must be good enough for computer addicted freaks.

Oh god no....

EDIT: I'm really supprised no one commented about that...Well, anyway, that has to be the stupidest idea I have ever seen..

/pizza is real. EQ2 has it up on their website.

EDIT
/pizza

What makes me disbelive this as a REAL product is the female adapter and the word usage, as well as the akward design of the contraption.

Dang. I was gonna quote that comic, but Meister beat me to it.

I'm sure there are people out there who bought this and intend to use it as it is advertised. I have only one thing to say to them:

"[rant]WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING???!!!! GET UP AND GET SOME EXERCISE!! DON'T BE AN ALBINO GEEK!!!![/rant]"

No. Seriously. Go into a sporting goods store and you can find this thing in EXACTLY this design and the female adapter in the same shape.

So, if the person would do this for their hobby, do you think they would not shower either?

... That's kind of gross.

But seriously, anyone who would use this on a regular basis, needs to get outside or at least stand up and take a shower. I know some hardcore gamers, but you can always take a break. Well, unless you're in a match, but in CS a match takes about 20 minutes- an hour, you can wait until the end of the match or else go before. I used to be in a clan, and we had practices. You just go BEFORE you have practice. It's not that hard, people. And in normal gaming/internet use, you always can get downtime.
