Ironic/NOT Ironic: The Shake Weight

Published by Harmon on November 10th, 2009 in Infomercial, infomercial, IRONY, TV

I do believe the Shake Weight is this season's Snuggie.

This is by far one of the gayest things I've ever seen. I think if you're not sure if you are gay, you soon will be after one session with the Shake Weight. As the informercial goes, 30 seconds into it you'll already be covered in sweat........and pumped! 

 

Check out the Shake Weight circle jerk taking place with these three sweaty hairless men:

 

But the big question: Is the Shake Weight ironic or NOT ironic? Freedom Haters wants to know!

 

Infomercial Infiltrator: Freedom Haters Gets A Gay Crush On Red Skelton

Published by Harmon on August 11th, 2009 in Infomercial, tv show, INFILTRATION, TV

The ad reads:

Looking for Fans of the Red Skelton Show to record testimonials for an infomercial with Rich Little. Looking for all ages but would be most interested in younger viewers who have just discovered Red's comedy.

 It's my dream to be on an Infomercial. Yes, aired late night on the high cable channels, hosted by a second-rate celebrity. And if this dream were to happen, it must be an Infomercial for something completely useless to the majority of society. That's why I answered the ad; I'm going to infiltrate an infomercial selling Red Skelton DVDs.

Your first question; who the hell is Red Skelton?!

Well, my Freedom Hater friends, read on............

Snuggie Photo Cette Semaine (of the Week)

Published by Harmon on May 22nd, 2009 in Snuggie, Infomercial, IRONY

 

EACH WEEK FREEDOM HATERS BRING YOU A PHOTO OF LIFE INSIDE A BLANKET WITH SLEEVES

THIS WEEK: A Sacrifice to the Snuggie-God.

Apparently the camo-Snuggie wasn't enough to keep Rocco hidden from the tree-creatures with the Wicker Man fetish.

Not So Fast Wearable Towel!

Published by Harmon on May 20th, 2009 in Infomercial

Frequent readers of Freedom Haters know of our affinity for the Snuggie--the blanket with sleeves. Now another company is jumping on the whole "let's-turn-an-accessory-into-an-article-of-clothing" craze. It's kind of like the food equivalent  of serving clam chowder in a sourdough bread bowl. 

Yes, here's the "Wearable Towel." Freedom Haters is not pleased.  The Wearable Towel--the towel with arm openings,  is just trying to steal the Snuggies' thunder. It's kind of like how Romancing the Stone was a second-rate rip-off of Indiana Jones. 

Freedom Haters everywhere should be outraged!  Here's why:

ShamWow Guy Punches Prostitute!

Published by Harmon on March 28th, 2009 in Infomercial, AMERICAN DREAM, IRONY

                             

How the mighty fall. The ShamWow guy was on the fast track for being the next Billy Mays. His ShamWow infomercial was grabbing the attention of America quicker than you can say "Hercules Hooks". He was reveled by millions for his pitch of a product that could hold 12 times its weight in liquid. How could we not love something that is machine washable and lasts 10 years--Guaranteed! 

Things were looking up for the ShamWow guy with an infomercial rated #1 by CNBC. Then things went wrong in the infomercial fast lane.
