The Juicer

Last night, my roommates came home with a juicer that they purchased from Target. It looked like a normal juicer, despite the disgusting eggshell coloring it had. Then I heard laughter, a great roar of laughter, from the kitchen. I went out to investigate and couldn’t see what was so damn funny at first. It’s just a juicer! Then I saw something next to the juicer. Is that…


Is that…a cassette tape? Those things from the 1980s? I believe it is. Wow, cassette tapes being packaged with juicers. Hopefully my next iPod comes with a Betamax instructional video. As far as cassettes go, I only have one left and it’s still sealed:

Fight the power.

Holy shit. I haven’t seen a tape since I bought Kriss Kross’ “Jump” cassingle.

That’s hilarious! For a second I thought you were going to tell me that in fact this wasn’t a juicer but a cassette deck made to look like a juicer so you can put it in your kitchen. Then again, maybe I shouldn’t start drinking in the morning already.

This is genius - young people don’t buy juicers, but older people do. Old people are more apt to have and actively use a cassette player - so this totally makes sense. Imagine if it were the other way around. You’d have a lot of complaining grandmas on the loose.

I set up 4 cd players for my dad and converted all his music, but he can’t let go of the tapes.
