Slap your troubles away


I was watching a documentary on CBCNewsworld last night - well the commercials were nearly all little infomercials - seemed a bit odd for the CBC but it was getting a bit late...

I saw a commercial for a product I'd never seen before - the Slap Chop - featuring the ShamWow guy. It was pretty funny. The demos reminded me of the Magic Bullet commercial (but without hungover Bernie) and lines like "stop having a boring tuna, stop having a boring life" and "you're gonna love my nuts" just add to the sheer hilarity of it all. But the kicker - this infomercial was filmed before poor Vince's legal troubles, but this Canadian version made a little edit and reminds us to "slap your troubles away, like Vince."
