Nov 21 2008Soda Dispenser Dispenses From The Bottom
This piece of crap from Scotsman Beverage Systems dispenses ice from the top, and soda from the bottom. ZOMG, sorcery! It's supposed to revolutionize the beverage serving industry but it's not going to. What it is going to revolutionize is landfills. The system works thanks to special glasses with a non-return valve in the bottom that are set on top of a special filling unit. Now why is this necessary? Oh right, so Scotsman can charge $6 apiece for the glasses. Can somebody say "shenanigans"? Nice. Now say "Don't worry, I'll pick". Great -- finish it off with an "up the tab". Bartender, you heard the man, keep the bourbon flowing.
Magic system fills glasses from the bottom up somehow [dvice]

FAKE!!!!
This is an obvious photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This it like the scene in the movie Never BAck Down where Max digs a hole to China and then pokes his head out to see the wonderful upside down world of the Chinese.

SWEET! I hate the splashy / fizzy at the local cheap and easy! Good on ya!
5. PLEEEZE! - November 21, 2008 3:11 PM
...hmm, can also be used as a bidet!

Have you ever wondered how your soda magically gets into your glass? Or how your glass magically got carried to the soda machine (wizard!)? Or how some chick with monster boobies and no brains got to do a magical commercial?

Shenanigans? Let me get my broom
8. STFUP - November 21, 2008 3:18 PM
THANK YOU for being the 1st site to make it clear that this thing requires special glasses. Every other site was making it sound like it, somehow, 'magically' fills ANY glass from the bottom. NOT!

@6,
LOL!! I would like to fill those chick's glasses from the bottom!!! And also have sex with them.

Look at the related videos. It works good for beer. Keeps the foam down.
11. Mike - November 21, 2008 3:30 PM
Cool beans.
12. PLEEEZE! - November 21, 2008 3:30 PM
@6
Yes. Please, do tell. With the exception, of course, of the boobie barbies. I explained it in the original thread: $5,000 = new boobs = secure lifestyle; $100,000 = education = work your whole life = bitter old retiree.

REAL!!!
Really overengineered, that's like making a toothpick with moving parts or a fake boob with 12 nipples.
I just weirded myself out.
14. formerly SPELLINGNAZI - November 21, 2008 4:28 PM
I'd be more impressed if it filled the ICE from the bottom!
15. PLEEEZE! - November 21, 2008 4:40 PM
@14
That might negate the bidet option that I had previously posted, but yes, I agree!
16. Moose Knuckle - November 21, 2008 4:49 PM
Isn't this just a soda bidet?
17. Moose Knuckle - November 21, 2008 4:56 PM
I meant enima @15's post distracted me

Next they'll be filling balloons from the top, zippers will zip down, airplanes will become submarines, And Daisy's movie will be referred to as "Always Forward Up" with some dude named Xam. No sir, count me out. It's the work of the Devil I say...
19. Mike Hawk - November 21, 2008 5:57 PM
I'll take my soda the old fashioned way. Win, lose, it makes no difference.
20. White - November 21, 2008 6:10 PM
Am I the only one to notice? EWWWWWWWW PEPSI?!?
Jesus, they're never gunna sell if they don't get Coca Cola on there side! Pepsi tastes like shit.
21. big brown - November 21, 2008 8:01 PM
i think they are running out of ideas to make things cooler, next thing you know they'll put soda from the side of the cup
22. big brown - November 21, 2008 8:03 PM
how do you know its pepsi? i saw no pepsi or coca-cola mark anywhere
23. big brown turd - November 22, 2008 1:41 AM
@22 Listen to the audio asshat.
Ice from the top...[giggle/chuckle]...PEPSI from the bottom.
I fear for our planet's future.
24. /b/ - November 22, 2008 1:45 AM
if it's not broke, don't fix it.
let's see some inventions that are actually useful
or maybe these dorks with expendable cash could invest in a cure for the common cold, cancer, stupidity... etc. etc.
25. Lynz - November 22, 2008 2:27 AM
SWEET. We needed this, it doesn't make bubbles. I'm proud of people for spending money on this.
Wait a second... I don't drink soda. This is stupid.
Also /b/ needs to get off of Geekologie and stay in 4chan. Because whoever this /b/ is he's a newfag. And I bet he's so much of a newfag that he doesn't know what a newfag is, or how much 4chan hates them. Plus he said "dork". You sir, are not /b/ material.

This is witchcraft!!! Burn it!!
27. Believer - November 24, 2008 10:57 AM
Oh yeah. This is JUST what we need! This device will be remembered forever as the device that revolutionized soda dispensing. Good job, sir.
28. oust - November 25, 2008 3:20 PM
