More Products of Why? - Fat Lamp

Why was this created and who did they think would actually buy it? Us Americans are waaaaaaay too sluggish and fat.

"Hey honey! I just bought us a fat lamp! Just pour the fat from the stove into the lamp and we can read the TV Guide!"


I'm guessing it's some sort of social commentary that is supposed to make you go "hmmmmm fat lights up". The product is no longer called the Fat Lamp but Slow Glow. As the fat slowly melts (fat is solid when not heated just in case you didn't know in which case - don't ever try cooking on your own) the light becomes gradually brighter.

The product description page says "a great discussion piece and easily lends itself to artistic interpretation. for example, the slow glow lamp is sluggish and fat -representative of our current culture (at least here in the united states)." - Based in Amsterdam and Beijing

No finger pointing there!

Cost: $436.00

Amsterdam and Beijing jokes anyone?

Equal dating mortification for all...

regardless of handicap or visibly disfigured.

AMSTERDAM, Jan 24 (Reuters Life!) - The Netherlands, the country that has pioneered reality shows like "Big Brother," is planning a new first -- a dating program for the visibly disfigured.

The broadcaster SBS 6 is seeking candidates for its "Love at Second Sight" show due to be launched on February 20.

"Do you have a visible serious handicap and are you looking for a partner?" says an appeal on its Web site.

"The program is a platform for people with such problems to share experiences and feelings in a positive way with the rest of the Netherlands and to show that they are absolutely not pitiful," the broadcaster said.

"The main aim of the program is to remove prejudice about these people, to create more acceptance and respect and, of course, to find the love of their lives."

But the majority of Dutch viewers are turned off by the show that was initially set to be called "Monster Love." A poll by the mass circulation De Telegraaf daily showed 85 percent do not like the idea, with only 9 percent in favor.
