There are some things in life that make you scratch your head. Consider the Zipfy. The first time I saw it, it looked to me like some crazy “marital aid” merchant had some overstock and decided to get into the sled business. That my wife and I spotted it in buttoned-up Utah made it even funnier.

The Zipfy - Someone didn't realize how funny this sled looks. (person shown at left for scale)
We recently saw a Zipfy in action, with a pre-teen girl at the, ahem, control stick. Were we the only ones laughing? Nope. I could see a few other adults snickering – and not just because of the awesome wipeouts. Granted, I’m sure the Zipfy’s design gives it some serious thrust. I mean, how can you not surge to the head of the pack with that?
Not to be taken from behind in the Perverted Sled Department, Wham-O Inc. offers its SnowBoogie Woody 46″. That’s right – you, too, can ride a 46-inch Woody. With that length, you may even have enough room for a partner. Usually, you have to pay extra for that kind of action!
It’s exactly these sorts of shenanigans that make me want to start a new company: PervProtect, LLC. For a nominal fee, I’ll examine your product and its marketing for any unintentionally suggestive overtones. Think of all the embarrassment I could save people! Of course, I’ll share the mirth by having a museum exhibiting the many products and ad campaigns I prevent from hitting the shelves. I promise to change the names to protect the guilty, the stupid and the sneaky!
