Post things here that have to do with the subject, whether it be telling about a product that is really good or sucks really bad, or telling a secret about an item/product that you've found from personal experience. Mine happens to be a neat little thing that I found out how to do with .jpg pictures. It's something you guys might want to check out.

I'm going to go ahead and disallow the content type I am removing with this edit. ~T

i've actually used the cold heat solder thing. it would be neat if it weren't just a piece of shit. and yeah, just about any infomercial is a trap.

They aren't shamwows, they're zorbees.

Sham, WOW!

OH

Shamwow, it will have you saying wow everytime. Omg that commerical needz 2 stop.. They do work really good though. My friend put one in his pants and peed on it :o.

pffft, right. since i guess you'll be saying "zorBEE" every time

Ok, I updated the thread. This isn't so much of a "trick thread" now as a "tell your experience thread."

anything that's on TV but not in stores (AS SEEN ON TV STORES DON'T COUNT)

i guess all i could say for my experience with the cold heat solder thing is that it could only ever be useful for tiny, tiny, tiny jobs. like soldering two staples together. anything larger than that and the batteries just can't supply enough power, and there isn't enough heat to begin the soldering process. also whatever retarded tips they have erode/corrode pretty quickly, so that's how they suck even more cash out of you.

edit: also, i thought your image was referring to how windows 7 is pretty much vista 2.0, as opposed to.. well... what you did there instead.

See aforementioned edit.

Wait... is this a custom boot image for ubuntu or something?

Rock band drums. Fun for 2 days. 3rd day = the day where the pedal breaks, and the drum pads snap.

Rockband in general.

My old boss bought into the hype about the Dyson vacuum thing. He said it's like the iPod of the Vacuum world; Looks pretty, works ok, but if you look a bit harder, theres better shit out there. I however got a shamwow. If you don't follow their directions, it works like a charm. It's like a piece of felt when you first get it, but if you soak it for about 5 minutes and wring it out, it works like a charm. We bought the demo one the pitch guy used at a fair and the one off the roll for about 20 bucks, and both work good. the ColdHeat soldering iron works good on anything not valuable. not for big jobs, but fixing broken linkages on my T-Maxx at the track it works pretty well.
