The commercial sucks. It still makes your feet soft.
 
2008-06-25 02:08:15 PM
Anybody who couldn't tell the nasty feet in the commercial were fake is an idiot.


Stupid Pedegg works nice though.
 
2008-06-25 02:08:21 PM
I turn the channel every time that commercial comes on. As a foot fetishist, I can't stomach it.

The only part that gets to me is the close up of old lady foot shavings being thrown into the trash. For some reason I always get it in my head that someone could put that on my pasta at a restaurant and I'd eat it and then I want to throw up.
 
2008-06-25 02:18:52 PM
It can also be used as a Parmesan cheese grater and lemon zester.

Well the PedEgg is just a microplane grater the same device used for grating nutmeg and cheese, also does a handy job zesting lemons.

I don't what one of them dohickeys cost (the separate shipping and handling always scares me a little) but it might be more cost effective to go to Bed, Bath and Beyond.

Or any other store in the country.
I have seen them at Target, Wal-Mart, Walgreens, Rite-Aid.... everywhere.
Makes me suspicious whenever I see product saturation.

Every time I see that commercial I get a craving for grated parmesan.
 
2008-06-25 02:28:01 PM
Mmmm...skin flakes
 
2008-06-25 02:30:05 PM
So the models had make up applied to their feet. BFD. You expect me to believe a female model has crusty feet in the first place?
 
2008-06-25 02:33:37 PM
Yeah, the PedEgg ain't actually half bad. Dulls up quick though. And I'm morbidly fascinated by the grated foot-leavings reservoir.
 
2008-06-25 02:33:47 PM
If that blows your mind, how about the fact that the after pictures of the diet commercials the guy always has a shaved chest and is oiled.
 
2008-06-25 02:41:16 PM
That commercial is gross up until the point they show you you can open it up and dump out the dead skin. Then it became horrific.
 
2008-06-25 02:54:01 PM
That's just nasty.

Every time *I* see that commercial I get a craving for toe jam.

I was scared that the "pedegg" was going to be something way more disturbing than that.
 
2008-06-25 04:07:05 PM
It's wonderful for softening your scrotum.



/whaa?
 
2008-06-25 04:08:50 PM
Oh the PedEgg sucks anyways, we prefer the Pedifile.

I've never seen a clearer case of callous misreprentation.

- I'm booing myself as I type.

Me too. I recently got cable and haven't yet had the displeasure of seeing this ad.

brap: - I'm booing myself as I type.

You should. That was pretty corny.
 
2008-06-25 05:33:33 PM
I've never seen that before.

It's a cheese grater for your feet.

yay
 
2008-06-25 06:14:07 PM
It works, i bought one for my So from an "as seen on tv" stores.
She digs it.

Never saw that ad.
 
2008-06-25 06:32:16 PM
I am a proud owner of the pedegg.
When I rub my feet on balloons, they do not pop.
Thank YOU, Pedegg!
 
2008-06-25 06:33:24 PM
My wife uses one. I use the trimmings as a thickener for soup stock.

another_white_boy: Oh the PedEgg sucks anyways, we prefer the Pedifile.

Everyone that views that commercial has to wonder if just for a split second at the companies R&D meeting, some asshat had to blurt out, "Hey, we should call this the PEDIFILE!!", then one split second later goes "Oh..wait..yea...."

Everytime I see it thats what goes through my head, along with the previously mentioned parmesean reference.

Has anyone seen that disgusting mentos gum ad where the lady comes up and starts drinking from the dudes mouth and then they're like "Mentos Gum - Mouth watering". I throw up a little each time I see it.

Don't forget tan and switches to catcher!!

/Don't own the PedEgg, but tried my sister's
//Hey, we have half the same cooties, it's cool
///Worked on my nasty ass callouses
 
2008-06-25 06:36:18 PM
It's great for scraping the scabs off my girlfriends coochie.
 
2008-06-25 06:36:31 PM
My gonads have never been softer. Did I just say that outloud?
 
2008-06-25 06:36:46 PM
I keep the pedegg next to my Bass-O-Matic.
 
2008-06-25 06:37:19 PM
I, too, have a PedEgg.

They ARE good, and they really work.

/you need to get one
//srsly

/They used it as a citrus zester in the commercial...why didn't they market it as that?
 
2008-06-25 06:38:41 PM
Oh yea, I also like the part with the chick in the black dress at the end. She gets "found out" at the party and her movements look like she is starting to melt into the ground.

/really seen this WAAY too often late at night

Bah. I'm sold. I'll probably order one today. :P

The couple alleges that the commercial, which can be viewed at right, portrays them in a "negative light" and was supposed to be an "Internet-only infomercial." Instead, the ad "has now run all over the world,"

img src="WTF_DOG.JPG"

"We didn't authorize world-wide distribution. We thought it was only going to be available on the entartubes!"

Oh, and just so you know, they don't have to ask your permission for jack shiat once you sign that model release and they pay you. I doubt the production company would have offered anything other than standard boilerplate releases. If you tried to get them to accept some sort of "limited distribution" contract, they probably would have laughed and kicked you to the curb.

oh thank GOD someone else gets nauseous by that commercial.

hey i have one right here on my desk I use to shave down my elbow
 
2008-06-25 06:42:32 PM
I've been thinking of getting one of those for the Mrs. She used to make me file her feet with an emery board, which was tedious and gross. Then, one day as a joke, I got out my dremel tool, put a coarse honing stone on it, and held her down while I ground on her calloused hooves. It actually worked really well, and now we do that instead. I'm surprised Dremel hasn't come up with a special attachment for feet. The only problem with the dremel is that it turns the foot crust into a fine, white powder, which makes about as much of a mess as dropping a whole box of white powdered hostess donuts through a ceiling fan.
 
2008-06-25 06:42:33 PM
I used mine last night, it works fine.
 
2008-06-25 06:44:17 PM
I came for the zester and cheese grater references and will now leave satisfied.

/feet and lemon zest and cheese. Yum!

Am I ding it wrong? The shavings don't coeelect in te reservoir. I have to use it outside so the shavings don't end up on the floor. I mean some shavings are in the thing but unless you can keep the ting paralell to the ground at all times stuff goes every where.
 
2008-06-25 06:48:15 PM
They should have named it the Pedifile.
