Hey, you know how you love watching television, drinking beer and maintaining a sloth-like avoidance of even the most gentle of physical activities? Well, check it out, Homer Simpson -- the Clicker universal remote was invented just so you could sit on the couch changing channels on your television while opening your beer at the exact same time.
The device's website features unattributed testimonials from men who are either fictional or too ashamed to put their names to statements like, "This may be the greatest invention in the history of all mankind" and "Remember this day, ladies and gentlemen, as the day human ingenuity officially reached its pinnacle."
If you happen to be the sort of guy who likes beer and sports (the website is emblazoned with the word "game companion"), does this insult your intelligence and competence a little bit? (Us, we're waiting until someone makes a bottle opener that's built into the "Complete Short Stories of Ernest Hemingway.")

This item doesn't insult straight men. Most things do not insult straight men. I've discovered that the groups that constantly get insulted by something even slightly off-putting are women, homosexuals and minorities. That discovery does not make me misogynistic, homophobic or racist...it just makes me a pioneer of obvious truths. While the article is tongue in cheek about the idea that the remote would insult men, it's unfortunate that most OTHER things have to be regarded under a P.C. microscope. Sorry to make an otherwise humorous/entertaining site into platform...probably just having a bad day.

I don't know -- unfortunate marketing aside -- this seems like a pretty useful product. Though it will now doubly suck when you inevitably lose it.
