Hehe... this is NOT unsolicited, because somebody who may or may not have been you went to a trade show, or some sort of public event or thingy somewhere and expressed interest in a product other than the one we're selling right now?
This is spectacular!

I'm mesmerized by the product claim.
"When was the last time you fixed your OWN computer, in less than 3 seconds,didn't have to pay for the repair, call anyone, or even get up out of your chair?"
All those hours I wasted GETTING UP OUT OF MY CHAIR and pressing the reset button... what a fool I've been! Now for only $66 I can reset my computer WITHOUT the danger of my ass growing cold from lack of chair-contact.
I tellya, we live in the golden age!

"Ugh, times are rough these days. Used to be elderly women could frap about at any trade show they wanted without a care in the world...nancing this way and that, collecting dollie samples, carpet and wallpaper swatches, opening and closing model windows and doors to their hearts content all while sipping on a finely crafted Orange Julius and tittering on and away about who's son-in-law ran off with who's sister and why the pharmacy won't take their prescription card any more and 'oh aren't these Julii wonderful, we sure find it hard to knock one down at home' and 'didn't the man demonstrating that high-speed painting rod look an awful lot like Trapper John MD, such steady hands and patient smile..'.
Not any more; now just anyone can follow them home electronically brainwashing thier already-easily-techno-infectable minds with an endless tired spray of cock and dribble about making life on this confounded contraption they've had to install in their homey, comforable and knick-knack infested houses just to order insuline and needlepoint patterns over the web easier to deal with by just prying open their hand-knitted change purses chocked full of milk money and old video game tokens from when the boys were last home because they did, after all, spend a quarter for each one and they might want to use them next time they're here to visit and it'd be terrible to waste or loose them and paying some bloody Canadian company verbally stumbling all over itself as it crashes into thier lives upsetting the candy-dish of internet insecurity sitting dangerously close to the front door, spilling out all their paranoid misconceptions onto the floor as they hurry to apologize with a sweeping gesture and send a shadow box of unrealized dreams skittering across the mental living room muttering all the while about how $66 flaming dollars will take care of all this and make them masters of this forced technology that bludgeons them with insecurity and misunderstanding every time they want to read mail about how the grandkids are liking very much setting the cats on fire and collecting dead snakes."
"Next thing you know they'll start saying 'NI' to the little old ladies, then we'll all end up going to hell."
"Bloody bastards."
