Actually the most surprising bit is that the GOP is a non-profit organization; they seem insanely profitable from my perspective. That said, I'd rather buy the alarm clock that runs away from you to make you get out of bed to hit the snooze.

The RNC is $23M in debt. I guess every penny helps.

@lparsons42: "Non-Profit." It's for tax breaks. Those rich, selfish slugs...

I'm cool with assault rifles, lingere, bags of crap and the like...

But, this item has [and will] never exist :)

It's like posting an idea...

It's like posting "World Peace for $1.00 + free shipping" heh...

(although, as guess it's not as bad as all of the DOA deals that make it through :D...)

Bottom of item description:

"Really Fine Print: ThinkGeek reserves the right to take up to a 50% commision on all donations made through the SnūzNLūz. In fact the software supplied with the clock ensures such is the case. Yay!. However, we promise to only use the money for rockets and beach front property."

lol, I had a feeling this would make it to popular deal. In a way I find that very amusing. (Still voted for it myself because of the previously stated lulz.)

They had a bunch of funny stuff that made it to popular last APEFOOL's... 'twas a good year for fake technology.

I liked the e-ink tattoo :)

(and the iPad arcade/iCade seemed like it actually should have been real heh... I think it actually is, now)

[edit]
Yup. 3 seconds and Google popped this out for me...

I love the fine print "Really Fine Print: ThinkGeek reserves the right to take up to a 50% commision on all donations made through the SnūzNLūz. In fact the software supplied with the clock ensures such is the case. Yay!. However, we promise to only use the money for rockets and beach front property."

I thought to myself when I saw this "Don't most people use eir cell phones instead?", saw it was fake, and now think someone should make a real cell phone app out of it. But send the 50% my was since I thought it up.

Psychologist by profession, I used such a technique to get a severe procrasitnator to finish her dissertation. Honor system, not tech involved, but it worked. Deets? Very liberal, no work on dissertation in 15 min, a $1 bill went into an envelope mailed to the KKK once/month. Took about $15 to get her moving forward regularly. Yep, she finished.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
