Why be in this mundane world when the surreal world in my head is so much more inviting, exciting, and not as complex?

Evan is in touch with the people!

From OhGizmo!: a review of the USB Scent Flowers which give me hope that my super lame (but not as lame as this) ideas might really be bazillion dollar gems.

By Evan Ackerman

If you’re selling a borderline useless USB accessory, you have to keep in mind who your market is. Do you really think that people who spend so much time in front of their computer that they need a peripheral to make it smell better are going to be attracted by scents like Ocean Breeze, Purple Lavender, Pink Jasmine, or White Chamomile? Of course not. Those are outside smells. Instead, you should try scents like Vanilla, Chocolate Chip Cookies, or Bacon. Or you could try even more familiar scents for the hardcore gamer, like Cheetos, Mountain Dew, and Shame.

In the mean time, though, you’ll have to content yourself with the aforementioned flowery smells. $9.99 gets you a USB Scent Flower plus three refill cartridges that should last you a couple months.

Oh the scent of gamer shame– how it burns my nostrils with its lingering stench. I think it should come in ‘victory’ so we know at least once what it smells like.
