If you need the Body Snake, you need help
The phrase "Body Snake" brings to mind all sorts of perverse imagery, but never fear—it's just a goofy sponge for people who are too fat and stupid to clean themselves. According to this infomercial, it eliminates stumbling and fumbling (and outright falling down) in the shower and is proudly made in America—as if any other people on earth would need a product like this. Seriously, if areas beyond your reach include your "bottom" and "between your legs," you need NutriSystem before any newfangled sponges. |

I'm pretty sure that was Chris Parnell doing the VO, which made this feel exactly like an SNL parody.

What, a rag on a stick isn't good enough anymore?

Good for people with certain disabilities but maybe Kiefaber is "too fat and stupid" to see that application, ridicule being the refuge of the unimaginative mind and all.

I invented the bodysnake origionally my father had a bad neck and shoulders. all those who put it down, I'm shure you all have a mom, grandmom or someone in your family who would greatly benefit from bodysnake. If kiefaber can't see that, and all he can see is fat, well he's the stupid one.

I don't have a mom or grandmom, you heartless bastard. They're dead.

Lighten up, guys. That was hilarious.

GailE: "Good for people with certain disabilities"? Absolutely. But they're not marketing it that way. Judging just from what we see in the ad, it's a device for fat people to clean themselves.

I live in India. Products such as this make me admire the innovative spirit of Americans.

Those are the most small minded, asinine, Dum ass comments i have ever heard your way of thinking boggles the mind I’m glad everyone on the face of the earth doesn’t think the way you do if they did we would still be in the stone age these products and products like these products are incredibly useful and life changing to many people worldwide for example
physically handicapped and challenged, back problems, hip and nee problems, balancing and inner ear problems need I go on and as far as overweight people many modern diseases and medical conditions cause obesity tumors, thyroid, metabolic problems ect .. Again I say (need I say more) ok deep breath i hope I have made my point and have a good day ;o)
