I'd have to go with the 9/11 PopStation, personally.

    That (which I'm surprised he didn't use the torch on, honestly) or that rotten egg from the Chinese Delicacy Special.
  • Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."
    Oh god, the 1,000-year egg. Poor guy.

    Perhaps not the worst, but Bambino Boxing is definitely up there for me. It's hard to believe that mess of incomprehensible visuals (seriously, they're just throwing their disembodied arms at each other and sometimes they hurt for no particular reason) was a legitimate game.

    Oh, I have another one for the list. Battle Bands.

    Silly Bandz are profitable. Children's monster battling franchises are also profitable. So therefore, if we combine both into an incomprehensible mess, it will still be even more profitable! BRILLIANT

    Century eggs are delicious.

    It's just that you're not supposed to eat them right out of the shell. They're a garnish or an ingredient.

    But are they still delicious when they come straight out of the low-budget convenience store? I think that's one of the key factors here.

    Not to mention that the one Ashen ate was, you know, actually spoiled.

    I'm pretty sure there are five or so companies that make century eggs and they're all the same quality.

    I'm not sure if it was actually spoiled or if he just thought it does. Because century eggs tend to smell a bit.

    He said on Twitter afterwards that he'd asked someone else and it turned out it was spoiled. *shrug*

    Now I'm watching the "I'm judging you" violin review (the one with an amazing amount of Engrish on it), and yeah, that horribly written description of the violin's history was actually nicked from the Chinese Wikipedia and (most likely) machine translated. Though I have to wonder what software they used, because even Google Translate does a better job. :P

    So Chinese Wikipedia is responsible for Nicolas Marty, Antonio Stella Bottom Tile, and Ji Plug Pu Melon Nai. Amazing

    Google Translate still has a bit of trouble with "Giuseppe melon Del Neri Jie Su (Giuseppe Guarneri del Gesu)", it seems.
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    even if the egg wasn't spoiled, it might simply not have been to Ashens' taste

    i mean, people can dislike any flavour.  like i remember a friend biting into a chocolate mini-roll and making such a disgusted face

    regardless, i think the 9/11 popstation is probably still the worst

    The thing is...the 9/11 popstation was bad, but not in an entertaining way.

    It's offensive and disgusting for sure, but didn't provide a lot of comedic opportunities.

    Yeah, that's a good point. I mean, even the Peter Popoff letter had some comedic aspects to it, even if it was overall a horrible con artist scheme.

    Actually, thinking about it...

    The Peter Popoff letter isn't really a "product", per se, but if we count it, I'd say it's worse than the 9/11 game

    Because the 9/11 game was offensive and crass and tasteless, but ultimately mostly harmless in and of itself

    Whereas Popoff is a con man deliberately preying on people who are going through rough times :\

    Yeah, plus it's not quite as funny when you find out that on his infomercials, he encouraged people to throw away their life-saving medicines because Jesus would save them by taking all of their money. I mean seriously o_O
  • The "Supernatural Debt Cancellation" thing is actually so stupid because it'll turn away skeptics and let them focus their information on easier marks.
