Who'd have thought it?

Okay. I have just discovered, writing the post above, that Amazon has a new feature, called the Golden Box. Inside the box, you find five daily offers, only one of which you can take up. If you pass on it, it's gone forever.

Obviously, since these objects will be the hand-picked results of demographic information gleaned from your previous searches and purchases, they should, theoretically, say a lot about your personality. You'd think, right? Let's take a closer look:

Leatherman 69010103H Pulse
DeWalt DW935K 14.4-Volt 5-3/8" Cordless Trim Saw Kit
Old Dutch Dome Pot Rack, Graphite
Eastman Outdoors 38080 Stainless Steel Fish Fry Pot with Lid and Basket
Samsung DVD-P421 Progressive-Scan DVD Player

Verdict: I am SO not gay.

Though I suppose maybe the fry pot is a little, y'know, faggy. But in an urban sophisticate kinda way.

"Not gay"? Do I really need to explain the concept of a "Leatherman," Mark?
