Stuff like this seriously shakes my faith in mankind.
on: April 17, 2006, 11:48:17 pm
http://www.failedsuccess.com/index.php?/weblog/comments/canned_oxygen_flavored_air/

War, poverty and intolerance I can live with, even come to appreciate in a way. But canned air...

Canned air makes me wish death upon each and every person who entertains the thought of buying one. In a just world, every can would be filled with a cocktail of terminal dieseses and substances, from polio to sarin gas.

(and no, apparently this is not satire, even though the site made me suspiscous, since they seem to be selling the stuff in Japan already)

I dunno, it's pretty dumb, but there are things I find dumber, and which make me hate people more than this does.

I'm selling "canned" air.  It comes in a giant plastic bag that you tie around your head and keep it there for a while.

Doesn't change that it's a monumentally stupid idea though.

I believe you're both wrong. It's spelled "Schwartz" as stated by the Wiki...

This is a pretty smart idea on the company's part. There are plenty of fools who will pay good money for this stuff.

It's not air. It's oxygen.

There is (was?) an Oxygen Bar (That sold actual oxygen to 'trendy wine bar' types) somewhere in central London...

London is the sort of place where people would buy oxygen, just to show how much money they could afford to piss away.

Holy crap, Ski Resorts will be selling this **** by the case!!  Forget Starbucks Coffee and a Red Bull vending machine at every entrance, have an OGO Bar in the lounge and sell OGO cans everywhere a cash register is placed!

Everything about a Ski Resort makes me roll my eyes, but I can truly honestly see this coming to the 'states ski resorts sooner than later, if it doesn't burn out immediately.
