Woot is selling the cedar planks for grilling salmon. While I'm
not a fan of this, I know its been discussed here before and some
of you might be interested.

No copy says pretentious ass like Woot. Buy (sic) all means, step
up.

Thanks for pointing that out, I read the copt for these planks and
it's frakkin hilarious. You gotta beleive it's all in over the top
fun, not meant to be taken seriously. Regardless, funny shit.
=============
"Get Wood
No wood says “I’ve arrived” like cedar does, man.

I mean, sure, your mahoganies and your cherries are nice. But those
woods are for, like, the Louis XVI fauteuils that’ve been in your
family for generations. They’re old-money woods. They’re not how you
say you finally made it; they’re how you say your great-great
grandfather made it, and you’ve been reaping the benefits since.

No, for the bourgeois striver looking for a shoe tree to maintain the
shape of his sensible wingtips; for the young couple wondering what to
fill their yellow lab’s bed with; for the family who just traded up to
a larger home and needs to remodel the closets with something moth-
resistant; for anyone who’s ever gotten it into his head to spread
mulch around some marigolds—cedar is where it’s at.

Plus, you know that the cedar groves of Lebanon are where the gods
live, according to the Epic of Gilgamesh? Totally true.

(Totally true, that is, that it says so in Gilgamesh. Not that any
gods actually live there.)

Anyway, so now guess what else about cedar? You can freaking COOK on
the stuff. I KNOW, RIGHT? This is what you’ve always dreamed of. This
is cedar living."
=============

There's more, but you get the idea.

I love the copy on Woot. I got me a little Firefox add on that gives me
the daily offer on Woot. Once in a while they have something I actually
need.

I wonder if native Americans doing subsistence fishing on the Columbia
River and cooking their dinner salmon on a rough plank know they're "living
the good life". :\

Robert, you're taking it waaaay more seriously than it takes itself.
Read this again and tell me they mean this seriously:

"No, for the bourgeois striver looking for a shoe tree to maintain

mulch around some marigolds—cedar is where it’s at. "
========

That's pure satire.

The guy who writes all the copy is just having fun, I think. It's
more satire than reality. Does anyone remember Larry Kaplan?

Of course it is, its WOOT, they don't do anything any other way
Read some of their job offers, they should be renamed to HOOT.
Great company, I've bought a bunch a stuff from them.
