    Right after I posted the thread about eHarmony, my neighbor stopped by to try to interest me in a pyramid scheme he thinks is going to answer all of his life's dreams. I've never asked him, but I believe he has some sort of mental disorder, or may actually be mildly retarded, but these pyramid scheme scummers seem to have him convinced that he'll be rich by selling health drinks to all of his friends, family & neighbors. I feel bad for him in a way, but I think I need to tell him he's being scammed before he drops a bunch of cash.

    The product(beverage) is called "Monavie", made from some magical Amazonian berry(Acai) that will regenerate your health if you drink it everyday. The berry is probaly very healthy, but the turds that sucker people into selling the product for them should receive karate chops to the neck.

    I can show anyone how to get filthy rich, if you buy my infomercialized 1 step to success program... all you have to do is send me your credit card number and expiration date, and I'll send you a package... No it's not just shredded newspaper... Then you make another whole dollar for every sucker I mean friend you refer to the program... Just look at me, I made my millions doing exactly what my package will show you.

    *rolling around in a pile of $100 bills and throwing them up in the air*

    pyramid schemes are called a 'scheme' for a reason, it just doesn't work.

    A guy at my husband's work sells that juice stuff. For some reason my husband bought a bottle just for kicks, to see what the big deal was... we both drank it, I never got what the big deal was.
