“Nose Aerobics.” It’s a thing. It’s a thing somebody thought of and talked another person into making it a physical reality.
From the site InventionZoo.com (who claim “Clever Products for Clever People”–sarcastically, I imagine):
With numerous games to play, this is how it works: Attach the stem to the glasses, put the glasses on, then attach any one of the different games to the end of the stem and get ready for fun. By moving your head, you create the action to play the game or solve the puzzle. As seen on the “Rosie O’Donnell Show.” Guaranteed laughs!
Ages 5 and up.
Every element of that paragraph sound like fun’s opposite to me. I have devised a more appropriate marketing pitch:
Discourage Even The Randiest Of Tykes From Diddling Their Middle With The “Nose Aerobics” Time-Vacuum System!
Ages 5 and “up.”

Clearly the inventors haven’t seen “The Jerk.”
“‘Opti,’ for the eye and ‘Grab,’ from where you grab it!”
“Opti-Grabbing it!!”
Did you see that this thing was “Out of Stock” too? That’s gotta be a typo!
I think the Duggars just ordered the remaining 21 sets.
Un-fun? Given.
Only played by 20-somethings in their room alone and never by a kid or anywhere in public? Admitted.
Weird? Yes. But is it WEIRDER THAN OTHER FORMS OF FACIAL EXERCIZING? I think not, fellows. I think not.

Wtf the nerds are coming back to freek us out. This is not right it, makes me wont to say “Back in my day we whore pepci bottles on ouwr faces.
This has the movie, “The Jerk” written all over it.
man my mom wishes i had this 2 years ago
wait what is “The Jerk”
That was twice what I deserve and half what I was eggspecting.
I pray those glasses have lenses, because the first kid who discovers masturbation while using this thing, by playing Hogan’s Heroes with his jizzum trying to shoot the cup off his nose, is going to need them.
I remember where I saw those! They were on the shelf next to the Transformer earring Action figures!
Why not just call it Noserobics? Writes itself! Comedy.
With the proper amount of cash flow and advertising, this could be the next Zhu Zhu pets explosion! Don’t give up on them yet, they’re just gathering resources… hehe.
For when you want to ensure your geek kid will never, ever, ever get laid…
Thanks and spanks Hardwick! (for the credit) saw this in a store and wondered why anyone would buy it, and then I remembered that it would entertain you when you’re drunk!
