    When you’re a dog, vacuums really suck!

    Especially a Dyson with “Just the proper amount of suction”.

    “The cyclones inside a the DC25 generate centrifugal forces 1000’s of times the force of gravity.” The force of gravity is 1 G, so Dyson cleaners have thousands of Gs of force? They should implode. But then centrifugal force doesn’t really exist, so implosion is unlikely.

    If my wife starts art one end of the house with the Oreck, while I advance from the other with the Bissel, will the dog and cats self destruct in the center? I remember something about a venturi effect from freshman physics. Or was that about Eno opening a fridge with no beer inside it or him. Any 19 year olds still got that physics book?

    The answer to that was pretty obvious, Eno

    My vacuum is covered in bite marks from my dog, it’s like a cage fight every cleaning day.

    I found that vacuum cleaners gave my cat the power to run on walls and leap across the room from one wall to the opposite.

    We’re pretty sure that our first cat, Peekaboo died from repeated electrical shocks he received by chewing through power cords on vacuums, TVs, stereos, and lamps. He got sick and the vets could never pinpoint anything, but every so often, I’d notice he’d have a black mark along the side of his gums on one side or the other which would then disappear over the course of a week or so. I think it may have been his way of getting back at the evil vacuum cleaners which howled at him so horribly. Of course, he may have just been crazy. This is the same cat who thought that my sneezes were a direct order for him to attack the other 2 cats. Anyone else in the house could sneeze and nothing at all would happen, but when I sneezed, the fur would fly.
