'Mind reading machine' for sale on eBay:

eBay_mindread.JPGMore futuristic eBay tomfoolery: "hello, i am selling what i believe to be a mind reading machine built by Dr. J. S. Strauss in the year 2282".

It is difficult to write anything about the auction page that even partially captures its kooky brilliance.

Although you may be interested to know that apart from getting a mind reading machine from the future, you also get a "picture of a young lady in a waterfall" thrown in.

Something tells me that despite solving some fundamental problems in cognitive science by the year 2282, neuroscientists may still be spending a little too much time in the lab.


Link to eBay page MIND READING MACHINE ?for minds? like time machine: i found it in my attic wrapped in a bed sheet (via anomalist)
