    I wish I was the one who came up with this idea... Funny

    Marketing genius.

    Can't get that jar of pickles open? Sounds like you need a Hand Job... "Hand Job" is a product that is non-slip and well, just take a look at it here: comercial and watch their commercial.

    Comical, but great idea. I bet these sell a lot of them simply because of the name and design.

    When I read your post, I thought, "No way will this sell," and then I quickly remembered all the success stories I've met and read about who made it by selling ridiculous novelty items. I guess that shows why I'm not in merchandizing.

    Haha, yes I think it will sell.

    P.S. Adding in the kid was kinda creepy if you ask me. Could have done without it.

    So what makes this thing better than the 50cent things you can get at Wal-Mart that do the exact same thing.

    The ones at Wal-Mart aren't vulgar or have any sort of appeal to them other than what they're intended for.

    These have a sort of comical appeal that people would buy, even if they weren't using them for the intended purposes. Gag gifts and stuff.

    Variations of this has been around forever. I remember them when I was a kid...
