can mean so many different things to so many different people.
When you are a kid, it is a reminder of how good life can be. And because you are impressionable, you believe the processes in front of you. That the green magic duster is indeed good enough to clean fragile glassware. The blender is a magical twister that crushes, juices and at the same time separate the pulp from the liquid. A gel from some tree bark that someone applies on their thigh can really make the fats disappear within 45 minutes!
When you have watched enough infomercials they lose their glitter. You begin to laugh at the before and after pictures and say, 'Are they the same person?' You point at the poor model on the floor and laugh at her permanent grin. When the sell part of the infomercial comes up, you go... 'Wait 5 minutes, surely they will throw in new freebies...' and viola, they do!
The conditioning power of the idiot box is so strong that you know, in 30 minutes time, they will repeat the whole segment.
The things you learn... from your favourite nanny that never fails.

These days I channel serve during commercial breaks. That's the whole idea of having cable and so many channels right? So you don't have to waste time with these infomercials.
