Because $5K/feet power cable gives you orgasm.

Ps. I have a pair of Sennheiser HD650 driven by a Headamp Gilmore V2, thank you very much.

I'm fucking confused at all the crap in this thread. Reminds me of the the hanoki foot deep cleasing pads that I see on tv.

Have you seen that guy on late night TV selling his colon cleanser? Even if he had something I wanted, I wouldn't buy from him. I do have to give him credit for being an honest salesman though, he says we're all full of shit.

The guy that says there are parasites with legs and crap inside of us? Yes, that's a very curious infomercial. I'm halfway wondering if the pills he's selling don't have little "parasites" or "eggs" in them for you to see ...afterwards.

You must have missed it then, we had a lot of fun with this site and his rainbow foil.

Hmm, that's a clever idea.

1)Tell people that we have lots of little creatures living in us which sap our "energy" or something.

2)Offer to sell them a pill which will kill them

3)Make a pill filled with all sorts of mini beasties that swell to a reasonable size in the body (This sort of thing)

4)ZOMG aliens in my crap!:shocked:

I remember seeing a commercial about a product that you wore on the soles of your feet at night that would absorb all the bad toxins and whatnot from your system. The proof was that you could see all that was removed from you after use (they turned black) and you should keep using them until the pads are clear when removed. Man, what a great gimmick that is, all you need to do is coat the pads with a dye that responds to heat or moisture. Then seal them up and stack them in order of the amount of dye on each pad, the one with the most being at the top of the stack and those without dye on the bottom.

Kinoki Foot Pads

FTA
Move over Alex Chiu, Kinoki foot pads are the most appalling medical scam since magnetic immortality devices.

The infomercial claims that these footpads are scientifically proven to help anyone detox, but scientists know that toxins are generally removed from our bodies by way of the liver and kidneys -- not our feet.

Even worse, they cite research in a bogus scientific journal.
