For the depressed Democrat who has everything
From Alternet: For the depressed Democrat who has everything, the "Audi-Oh," a small, sound-activated vibrator:
Mid-November is when a lot of disappointed women, whose morale hit rock bottom on Nov. 3, were climbing out of their depression. Maybe they heard of this device and got the same idea I did. You could start taking anti-depressants. You could avoid the news entirely, but that would leave you dangerously uninformed about what this administration and its blind followers are up to. Or you could get an Audi-Oh and keep yourself current without every story feeling like a kidney punch.
I haven't filtered any information through the Audi-Oh just yet. It's still a little weird to me. But who wouldn't rather hear it all through a delightful hum? Imagine being able to watch "Hardfire" or "Crossballs," or whatever those gabfests are called and actually wanting to raise the volume instead of mute it. News hasn't been sexy since Clinton skipped out on D.C. This might change that.
After election day the London Daily Mirror ran a headline asking "How can 59,054,087 people be so DUMB?" Well, the answer is that being dumb is easy. Being informed is tough, especially if you've had bad news for the past four years and are hollow-eyed at the prospect of four more. You can't change the facts at your finger tips unless you have them, and if getting them can be less distressing, I'm all for it. What do you think, girls? Hands on buzzers.
