How Crazy is this? Why is this even relevant?
I know this is crazy. Why is this even relevant that so many watch this video and so many sites (including this blog-post) embed this video?
Interesting that the blender costs as much as two iPads.
As for why the video caught on, I'm not sure. Perhaps it captured a weird convergence of boredom with the iPad hype, a certain anti-technoelitist schadenfreude, and that thing that happens when you see a horrible car wreck but can't look away even though you want to.
