I get the same results just shifting my jaw slightly. Maybe I should sell “books” and “DVDs” with that one-line piece of advice.

This thread is freakin’ killing me.

[QUOTE=YouTube quote]

Rough translation: ‘‘Greetings. I would like to know if you have representatives or some place where I may obtain this product in Colombia. I remain grateful for the information. Ricardo.’’

Which serves as a nice segue into my commentary that never in my life have I seen so many ridiculous infomercials than when I stayed in Mexico.

I can’t find any silly ones per se, unless you consider [a guy trying to kill himself because of impotence](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gq4_5WOWHtQ) silly. (The name of the product is ‘‘Sexual Power’’ and the commercial cites impotence as a leading cause of divorce.)

I knew a girl in high school who used to eat that stuff out of the jar. I wish I was kidding.

Jeebus, that thing is terrifying. Almost as funny as the neck dildo, AKA, that thing in the OP.

Heh, I recently found myself in need of a Tiddy Bear because of minor boobie surgery – I’m OK, but the seat belt on the passenger side rides over the sore spot. I’ve just been shoving the small, cushy travel pillow we keep in the car under the strap. But I call it my Tiddy Bear, hee hee!

The stuff tastes better than it works.
