Products I don't "get,"

From here:

Designer Siren Elise Wilhelmsen has created “365,”
an interesting clock concept that tells time in a different manner;
instead of just displaying the minutes and the hours, it knits round the clock for 365 days.
Once a full year has passed, the knitting clock will have created
a two-meter scarf for you to use and remember the year by.

I've seen that in action, very cool.

We picked up mail for my father in law, who's in a rehab place now, and got his high end audiophile stereo catalog. It was hilarious.

There were the $1500 HDMI cables, and so on, and I was amused to see all the high priced crap. But I had never heard of cable elevators before.

See, if you allow your cables to touch the floor, it adds noise. So you need to elevate them. You can spend literally thousands of dollars elevating your cables and also your stereo components and speakers.

I had never heard of these, they are products I don't "get."

So you don't believe in the placebo effect.
