slap chop

tonight, as my brother, my dad, and i watched our beloved unc tarheels lose to the college of charleston, i realized something: infomercials are constantly solving problems i didn't know i had. here are a few examples:

never before the invention of the snuggie was i aware that i could ever be cold enough to need a blanket with sleeves. won't a sweatshirt suffice?

www.perfectbrownie.com
who knew that using a knife to cut brownies after baking them was so imperfect and inconvenient? i had no idea i needed someone to invent a better way to make brownies.

until i watched this infomercial about the newest workout system from body by jake, i thought i was in decent shape. then i saw the extraordinary ripped-ness of the man modeling the 11 minute workout program. guess i need to work out more, huh?

according to the slap chop salesman, not only will i save money at the ice cream store, save time in the morning before work, and spice up my salads, but i will also no longer have a boring life if i start using the slap chop instead of a regular knife.

talk about solving all my problems with only a few small payments of $19.95.
