Choose Your Own HDTV Adventure

It's not a choose your own adventure unless you die on the second page, regardless of which choice you made.

Something like, "You decide to purchase the 56" Toshiba DLP with built-in ATSC and QAM tuner. In eager anticipation of watching football in high definition, you carelessly slip while pulling the box off the shelf. The TV crushes you and the annoying sales associate. The last thing you remember before dying is hearing a by-stander ask if he can get a discount on your TV for being damaged in the store."

That was a great story, the endings were freakin hillarious. I'm sending this to everyone I know whose shopping for a HDTV.

"to distract you from the batch of sub-standard cocaine you're sniffing from the skull of a dead hooker." Now there's a sentence you don't read in your average paperback rag. I almost fell out of my chair and spilled my beer laughing. Great article. Thanks for the tip - GIZMODO RULES!!!

BLAST from the past.. I had that SAME book!! (I recognize the photo)
After 2 or 3 endings, that ISH got old, though.
Thanks for making me feel OLD... I mean, mature.

Love the Choose Your Own Adventure nod. I used to love those as a kid. That and "Encyclopedia Brown, Boy Detective".
