Geeks!: The Meanest Thing Gizmodo Did at CES
http://gizmodo.com/343348/confessions-the-meanest-thing-gizmodo-did-at-ces.php

CES has no shortage of displays. And when MAKE offered us some TV-B-Gone clickers to bring to the show, we pretty much couldn't help ourselves. We shut off a TV. And then another. And then a wall of TVs. And we just couldn't stop. (And Panasonic, you're so lucky that 150-incher didn't have an active IR port.) It was too much fun, but watching this video, we realize it probably made some people's jobs harder, and I don't agree with that (Especially Motorola). We're sorry.

1. Now, THAT's funny. Yes, mean, but funny.

2. That's just wrong.
Yeah, it's turning off the gadgets, but it's still wrong.

I laughed though.

4. Perfect! I'll just add one of those to my keyring, right next....
...to my cell phone jammer, and my next visit to my local "neighborhood bar masquerading as a branch of Best Buy" will be a much more serene experience.
