Nov 1 2007Zen Dolphin Relaxation Aid Is Questionable
The Zen Dolphin is a glowing blue plastic dolphin that's supposed to help you relax. It moves like it's swimming.
Relax as you watch Zen Dolphin magically swim above its illuminating base. Beautiful blue light makes it appear as though Zen Dolphin is effortlessly swimming through the sea. Perfect for home, as a night light, the office and more!
It costs around $40, and takes 3 C batteries. It also plays some underwater sounds and dolphin noises. I don't know about you, but it makes perfect sense to me. I get pretty stressed here in my cubicle, and I was just thinking the other day "You know what would really help me unwind? A giant plastic dolphin humping my desk. That should do the trick."
Video demonstration after the jump.

Why do advertisers always call their crap "magic" when it's clearly not? WTF is so magical about moving plastic?

And why would I drop 40 bucks on this thing when I can just loop their crappy YouTube video for free? Chumps.

I'm gonna have to agree with 1 -4 on everything. It's shit, I'm strangely drawn to it but I don't know if I'm drawn to the video or the thing itself. Oh well it's still shit

yeah, it looks more like a dolphin doing some slow motion humping than anything else.
and i love that it has to be dark for the full effect. way to calm the office down. not.
