Massage Suit   (+5, -1)  [vote for, against]
Water Messages While You Watch TV!

This suit is made of a plastic similar to that of a bubble chair. Their is a little metal box which sits next to you, and fills the suit with warm water. Once the suit is filled (the suit stops and seals at your neck), the metal box begins the circulation of the water. The box also has many little tubes running out of it, connecting to different parts of the suit, thus creating a hot tub effect, or a message. It would very versatile so you can sleep, watch tv, or do whatever while wearing this revolutionary suit.

LOL

do you perhaps mean Massage?

The massage suit sounds faintly workable. Watch out for other suits arising from the //seals at your neck// part.

A "message" suit completely covered with a matrix of organic LED's could really be something. Instant color change, messages, patterns, etc. Sounds like a better idea than a massage suit to me.

*L*aughing
*O*ut
*L*oud

Used a lot in chat rooms. It can be used in many different ways too:
Noun - "Would you look at her 'lol'? It looks soo stupid."
Verb - "I bet <insert name> would lol if he saw this!"
Adj. - "That LOL man, he just makes me lol"

There are even a couple of variations on this:
rotflol - rolling on the floor laughing out loud
lmao - laughing my a$$ off
rotflmao - rolling on the floor laughing my a$$ off
I'm sure there are a couple of others, but it's late for me and the children are asleep, so I bid you adeiu (sorry if thats spelled incorrectly, I never took whatever lang. that is.)

BTW, Hope this helps.

I'd love one of these babies. It would be even better with fish in it. Eels perhaps.

Fixed.

Where does the 'little metal box' get its water from? Presumeably it's compressed inside....

I'm always impressed by the obligatory 'little box'.

I was on AOL 5 years ago, switched ISP's and vowed never to go back. It was good for me then, since I was a beginner and all, but now that I know a little more about the web then your average joe I don't think I could stomach it again. I still contend that AOL is a good stepping stone if you are computer illiterate, like my father/mother/brothers/sister/dog(who is now dead)/cat(who is also squished in the great road of life)/goldfish(who is also floating belly-up in the great bowl in the sky)/wife/or many of the people I work with. Not saying that all those mentioned above have the computer IQ of a dead cat/dog/goldfish, just saying that they act like it.

barnz: are you advocating the use of AOL for the deceased? This could revolutionize the paranormal...
-- yamahito, Jun 05 2002


bliss: nah. If they're in heaven, they won't be able to get AOL. If they're in hell, why torture them any more?
-- yamahito, Jun 05 2002


And anyway, why would they need dail-up? They are in the afterlife, they can get whatever they want.
