Random musings and general banter.

Oh christ foghorn.

Flogging Truth 818, on about Dr Bill Andrews NOBEL PEACE PRIZE WINNER. What an ignorant numpty.

Actually looking into it, can't find anything about Andrews being even just a Nobel Prize winner, the only three things that stand out is:-

1.His work found the telomerase in humans but he wasn't the one that discovered the telomerase enzyme, which was a Scientist & student before him, she was the one that was a Nobel prize winner.

2.For his work Andrews

"While Director of Molecular Biology at Geron Corporation, Dr. Andrews was one of the principal discoverers of both the RNA and protein components of human telomerase and was awarded second place as "National Inventor of the Year" in 1997 for this work"

3.The only folks that seem to claim Andrews is a Nobel Prize Winner are, folks with blogs on the internet and ignorant pretendy Doctors on TV shopping channels, even the folks behind 818 don't call him a nobel prize winner just he's an award winner and that Truth 818 is based on Nobel prize winning research.

so Jeremy is flogging those fan heaters..he was pretty awful in the previous hour with Jo selling an airfryer, half the the time it looked like Jo was trying not to laugh at what Jeremy was saying, he had such a bizarre way of presenting....so back to the heating hour..do yo u hear what i hear when it goes to the break...?....i have been a member for ages, but never got the email to verify, that might not be a good thing.

I can't quite make it out.

It sounds to my ears like Jeremy was hot-mic'd saying "no-one was coming in for those fans" — or perhaps more honestly, 'no-one is coming in for crap fans'.

Ah yes, Truth 818 - the revolutionary skincare product that's so effective it's taken the world by storm…

…yet not caused so much as a light breeze in the beauty industry: no major retailer has touched it, it's never mentioned by the mainstream beauty press, and has to rely on being sold through shopping TV and weird faceless social media accounts linking to dodgy online stores (filled with other supposedly miraculous pills and potions).

It's almost like anyone who'd want to make sure the claims this product makes stack up, don't touch it. No surprise IW3 is happy to - less Truth 818, more SayAnything 666 there!

I mentioned before that the promo video is assembled entirely from stock video clips, including a man in a full body and face protective bio-hazard suit mixing chemicals... not reassuring for something you put on your skin .

That promo video gives me survivor vibes from the 1970’s

Oh my Lord… I walk in, turn on the telly, and it’s that ghastly omnipresent, materialistic, screeching Mancunian woman, surrounded by tat. Time for Bullseye…Or Family Fortunes from 1986…

Bullseye! So bad it's good - I have a secret addiction to watching the re-runs (yes, OK, I need treatment - I know...). My excuse is that I'm waiting for Jim Bowen to tell a joke that's actually funny. I rest my case, your Honour...

 

[Duke of Cheese]

Personally, I watch it to look at the old prizes. Teasmades, telex machines, VP Sherry gift sets, music centres, Bontempi organs, APS cameras...You know...the sort of up to date, needed items these days that Exemplar Planet can only aspire to sell.

 

[Jazzydrury]

Just looked at that new channel, nice to see named hours back

 

[Jazzydrury]

On that new channel even Cary’s is watchable

 

[Scraping the barrel]

Hooray everyone! He’s on,my mate Mike.. he’s had 57 emails today(he says) all asking for the digital skipping rope again WHAT?

How do I email him with no published email address?

They’re all in,here they come..blah blah f*****g blah…almost time to switch off..and watch Celebrity Catchphrase with names I’ve never heard of..

Digital skipping ropes? ..gawd

 

[Scraping the barrel]

Here they come,you’ve all gone bonkers and beserk for this..

 

[Muttley]

Quality now. Got a USB rechargeable touch sensor diamond LED table lamp. It changes colour. The web and phones have gone crazy. Me Mike fought to get these, he wasn't allowed to have them and he kicked off and demanded them. Apparently they sell for £20 all day long. But they're only £7.99. People are multi buying, the lines are crazy. Must be you lot cos it wasn't me.

Mary, Margaret and Gillian are in. He's said those names 3 times in that order after a long gap so there's been no new buyers. And this is taking a long time despite flying out the door.

Looks like Dirty Peter is bringing down the curtain on the Carnival of Tat clearance at midnight.

Until he's back tomorrow shouting "this is a clearance price, ok, alright"

You can't beat a bit of Bully

Surely you mean: "THIS IS PRICED - TO CLEAR. OK, ALRIGHT" ?

 

[Scraping the barrel]

The adjectives are flying out of his mouth tonight…everything is brilliant,fantastic,best ever,cheapest ever,fabulous… if he used less of these words and used them very occasionally I reckon sales wouldn’t be affected and may go up..the fact he uses the same words for everything would make your average viewer quite sceptical,in my view….people may not believe him

I’ve had enough already,god no,copper socks again..that’s it!
Just off to cut my wrists and may pop in here later

The prize that always made me laugh was the speedboat.

What on earth is a digital skipping rope? Our skipping ropes when we were children was usually old washing lines. I do remember getting one that had handles that had ball bearing in so that the rope didn’t get twisted up on your hands.

The prize that always made me laugh was the speedboat.

Especially when they lived miles away from the coast

 

[Jazzydrury]

Especially when they lived miles away from the coast

Yeah whoever won that normally came from the Central Region

 

[Battiola73]

Mikey just said they’ve got Antibacterial, Anti Moisture underpants on later. Please God don’t let him demonstrate wearing them or Pervy Pete even worse.
