Things I Don't Need

During my daily read of Dealnews today, I ran across this iPod accessory. Here's the info from the merchant:

Ipod Accessory
Now you can Enhance your Experience in any room with your favorite music with the iCarta iPod Toilet Paper Holder. Seen on the Drudge Report, the Daily Mail and more. Order today.

Features:

  • 4 Integrated high performance moisture-free speakers deliver exceptional clarity and high quality sound
  • Charges your iPod while playing music
  • Audio selector allows you to play iPod shuffle or other Audio device
  • Integrated Bath tissue holder that can be easily folded as a stereo dock
  • Requires AC Power (AC Adapter included)
  • Easy to remove from Wall Mount

Are there really people who must be this plugged in to their music collection?

TMI ALERT (hey, it's a personal blog after all): Personally, I kind of like my experience in that room to be UNenhanced. The quiet is fine by me.

I bet it was invented by a dude. Note the absence of gingham and a slot for dispensing tampons.

Shouldn't be surprised, though. Before cell phones, there were people who had phone lines in their bathrooms. At least listening to music doesn't require any active participation. Can't say that about having a phone conversation.

Besides, I seem to remember a certain black 80's-era boombox on the counter in a certain Sands Point apartment. :)

Goodness, how do you remember such things?!

I guess at some point, I had to be that plugged in to my sounds. Probably means I'm officially an old fart now.

"Goodness, how do you remember such things?!"

Damned inconvenient at times, ain't it?

I guess I should clarify a little, for those out of the loop.

The black 80's-era boombox was on the counter IN THE BATHROOM of the Sands Point apartment.
