I always talk to my daughter about "needs" and "wants" and being able to know the difference between the two. At times we argue over what defines a true "need" and "want". Subjectivity usually fuels our discussions along with our generational differences. But today I received a catalog in the mail with things that were irrefutably "do not needs". Every single item. To name a few:
The Waterproof Cashmere Coat
The Germ Eliminating Knife Block
The Men's Spring Loaded Slip on Shoe
The Ultrasonic Eyeglasses Cleaner
The Circulation Freshing Feline Drinking Fountain
The Robotic Floor Washer
The Sanitary Hand Free Faucet
The Nutcracker Music Box
The Ultrasound Waveguide Toothbrush
The Dance of The Sugar Plum Fairy Porcelain Musical Egg
The Indoor Dog Restroom
Need I go on?
God bless America.
