no, that's not photoshopped. it's a real toy. it gives me a bad feeling down somewhere i can't quite put my finger on.
"I'll admit I had an OiNK account and frequented it quite often… What made OiNK a great place was that it was like the world's greatest record store… iTunes kind of feels like Sam Goody to me. I don't feel cool when I go there. I'm tired of seeing John Mayer's face pop up. I feel like I'm being hustled when I visit there, and I don't think their product is that great. DRM, low bit rate, etc... OiNK it existed because it filled a void of what people want." - Trent Reznor
Did anyone else get the 17 pages of L. Ron Hubbard / Scientology books under the "Customers Who Bought Items Like This Also Bought" section? I don't want to go too far into P&R territory (and L. Ron H. and Scientology kind of get into both), but that was surreal.

Same results...
This comment made me laugh:
I was a little disappointed when I first bought this item, because the functionality is limited. My 5 year old son pointed out that the passenger's shoes cannot be removed. Then, we placed a deadly fingernail file underneath the passenger's scarf, and neither the detector doorway nor the security wand picked it up. My son said "that's the worst security ever!"...
Heh, good stuff. Apparently those who want to play DHS and scan, probe, and annoy transformers and pokemon standing in line only purchase LRH books. Amusing association.
If a chicken and a half, can lay an egg and a half, in a day and a half... how long would it take a monkey, with a wooden leg, to kick the seeds out of a dill pickle?

it's like some sort of freakish person dresses up little kids as pimps, fingers them, then experiences anguish and guilt and has to wash off their sin, then steals bars of gold with which to build an additional wing on the neverland ranch or something.
i wonder if it is possible to perform an amazon-bomb sort of operation. like, put an order together, complete it, then cancel it moments later so that you aren't charged but are still manipulating the "other customers also bought" statistics. maybe it's what's happened here. heh, maybe we should try it and then give a talk at the next DefCon.
