Gizmodo loves shiny gadgets. Gizmodo went to the Consumer Electronics Show as one would expect. What one wouldn’t necessarily expect is that Gizmodo is staffed by sugar-rushed 12-year-old mouth breathing imbeciles. In a heart-felt, placating tone they admit and ever-so-sincerely apologize for the fact that they ran around the show like halfwits and used a device to turn off the show displays. You can tell it’s heartfelt by the somber, conciliatory one and a half minute video depicting their deeds on the referenced page. And by them saying “We’re sorry.”

“CES has no shortage of displays. And when MAKE offered us some TV-B-Gone clickers to bring to the show, we pretty much couldn’t help ourselves. We shut off a TV. And then another. And then a wall of TVs. And we just couldn’t stop.”

No opportunity was wasted. Entire walls turned off, games interrupted, even many times during presentations. Here’s hoping your juvenile shenanigans preclude you from ever walking into a trade show again, Gizmodo. If you were looking for a way to distinguish yourselves you’ve certainly succeeded.
