Revenge of the jacuzzi floozy!

Every so often, we see a product that is so amazingly stupid it deserves our special attention.

Look at this photo from a luxury goods show in Romania, featuring a jacuzzi with a TELEVISION. What could possibly go wrong here?

“Welcome home, honey! Grab your drinkie and slip into the jacuzzi with me. I’m watching Dexter. How was your day?

“By the way, our insurance guy called to thank you for raisingĀ  your life insurance policy to $10 million - he said it was a smart thing to do.

“Hey honey, will you wash my back. My special sponge is over there behind the TV, under all those electrical wires…

“Oh, hon! Look how high this water sprays when I open the jets all the way!”

Don’t know how you do it, but all my jacuzzi’s came with blond’s. Mind you they didn’t come ‘delivered’ I had to go out and pick’m up on my own.

As for the electrical risk involved, they got this stuff called ‘insulation’ and this other stuff called ‘waterproofing’ . . .

Wow, if they wanted to show off the T.V. they should have picked a less sightly model. Why isn’t she doing Chanel ads? My Goodness.

I think you are all missing the obvious! If I was in the tub with the Blonde , why would I need a TV? She should come standard with the Jacuzzi.

I just had to say working with Retailonics was great! Not trying to promote just had to emote.

I worked for bunches of rich bastards who wanted TV jacks installed next to bathtubs; so, this doesn’t surprise me one bit. Most were candidates for the Darwin Award.

Toaster? Sorry, but that wouldn’t go well with the deep fryer included in most of these jacuzzis….

But when will they install the toaster i asked for?
I really love to eat toasted bagel with cream cheese while i stew in my own warm juices.
