Here we are in 2007, a new year full of promise and heartfelt bliss, and I find this. It’s a Solar Night Flower. Sunlight charges it during the day, and the Solar Night Flower’s (SNF for short) fiber optic veins light up at night, giving the effect of a pretty daisy being electrocuted for the murder of another flower (it was a pansy). At least it’s not USB powered.

We’re not sure who keeps buying crap like this, but they must, as others keep making it. To all life on other planets intercepting our RSS feed: on behalf of humanity, I apologize.
