Revolutionary LK99 Type 304 Superconducting Deluxe Drain

Having your drain clog up with food after cleaning your dishes is a thing of the past. You're never going to have a clog in your drain again. With the revolutionary LK-99 Superconducting deluxe drain - all of your food particles effortlessly float above the drain for easy removal and cleaning. No more clogged drains. No more messy clean-up. Just free-flowing water and a clean drain and sink. But wait! How does this miracle drain work? I'm glad you asked. Food scraps are magically suspended above the drain for easy removal thanks to a remarkable new "superconducting" technology developed in South Korea.
All you need for install is your new LK99 drain, a little Pro Dope and common household tools. Then you can enjoy miraculous floating food scraps and be on your way to a cleaner, clog-free drain. We use reliable, safe materials and we source them carefully. At Elkay, we provide ingenuity for everyday life. "M. Davis" doesn't quite understand the technology, but she understands the results - see her glowing review!
Hurry and get your Elkay drain and be the first on your block to utilize this revolutionary room-temperature technology in your very own sink. This is the same technology the is going to revolutionize the power grid, enhancing powerful medical imaging technologies and magnetically levitating trains - nothing short of a new era for humanity.
Some say it is a slam dunk for the Nobel prize! If the drain doesn't work on first try, just pour in some liquid nitrogen and wait 15 minutes.

EPIC AMAZON REVIEW THREADS

What a great gift - received this from one MidCoast - one of our retouching vendors. They are very detail-oriented and they obviously did their homework when it came to a timeless gift. Can't beat the Stanley Classic 8oz Flask: good looks, sturdy design, and durable stainless steel wall, and a Stanley-backed lifetime warranty. I'm looking forward to using it for stove fuel when backpacking.

Now about the Kablamo! (aka amazonemperor) five-star review at Amazon.com of Stanley's Classic Flask.

Obviously this was in jest. But what kind of process does Amazon have for reviewing product ratings? Unless it is reported, the prank review will live on - possibly tarnishing a brand in the name of fun. Stanley should be monitoring their products for reviews like this and flagging them as needed.

Unless that is, they are trying to get a little extra buzz out of Kablamo!'s post. After all, four of six people found this review helpful. I checked Kablamo!'s profile and found that he had an equally rye sense of humor regarding a Clue game.

Epic Amazon Review Threads are the latest attack on boredom sweeping the internet. College Humor Internet Archeologist, Susanna Wolff, has an article with step-by-step instructions on "How to Write an Epic Amazon Review." Clever. Kind of reminds me of the Anarchist's Cookbook except these saboteurs subtly sneak in unaware and plant their Web-side humor with glee - knowing they just played the newest practical joke around.
