Yet Another Informercial Laden With Double Meaning

Seriously? Seriously?? The product in this infomercial, Shake Weight, should have been named How to More Vigorously Pleasure Your Man. Watch this infomercial and you'll know exactly why we feel that way.

OK, see? Are we right or what?

You Want to What on A Monday Morning?

Getting picked up by smarmy French guys with cheesy pick lines isn't exactly the thing one really wants to deal with on a Monday morning but, hey, like just about everything else these days, there's an app for that. And it's a branded app. Hence, we write about it to fulfill our duty to you loyal readers. Aren't we special?

So Hardee's - excuse us - Le Hardee's is out with Parisian Pick Up Tool, an app for "young hungry guys" which helps them pick up girls, insult their friends and, yes, ask for a discount at Hardee's...all in French.

Users can select their favorite French mouth image, select a message, and then hold the screen over their mouths to deliver it with a swarthy French accent or in perfect French with subtitles. The app also has coupon that can be used in-store.

We have LA's 72andSunday to thank for this Monday morning slap in the face.
