Are you tired of sitting on things not shaped like coffins in your virtual home in Home? It's just a pain, isn't it? But who wants to go out and buy a virtual something shaped like a coffin? There's the awkward looks from the virtual store clerk, the other virtual customers whispering behind your back and the ever present virtual God judging you constantly. No, it's much better to get something like a couch shaped like a coffin for free by watching Mindfreak on Aug. 6 in Home.
That is actually happening, in case my theoretical wording threw you for a second. If you're out of the magic televison show loop, Mindfreak stars Criss Angel, who is pretty much a major tool, doing illusions on unsuspecting people. If you can sit through the episode without wanting to hurt the nearest person dressed like a douchebag rockstar then you'll be able to get the coffin couch that is pictured above. Worth it? Absolutley not.

It was pretty entertaining: I think he gets too much shit.
Haha. My sentiments exactly. I'm not only not going to be logging into Home, let alone sitting on virtual furniture. but I'm also not going to be watching Criss Angel. The fact that he looks emo has nothing to do with it.
I agree.
Really? I've seen the show and I can't stand the guy. Real magicians do their thing on a stage and don't pay people to stand around looking hip and acting amazed.
In my opinion, it's all fake, so if it's a stage show, street performance, it's all the same, provided it's interesting.
If it makes you feel any better my favorite magicians are Penn and Teller, haha, I just think Criss puts on a good show.
Still, I give the guy credit, he's an incredible magician on the whole, although the levitating over the Luxor hotel was a bit ridiculous.
Illusion, Michael. A trick is something a whore does for money... or candy.
Oh and I'm ranked 38th on the Resistance 2 "Barrels of Fury" minigame :p
Penn and Teller are awesome as magaicians but I love them for Bullshit! and that game they made for the sega CD, that was pretty rad too. I still hate Chris Angel though. His shows and commercials make me facepalm with such velocity that it's a wonder I haven't knocked myself out yet.
Sweet coffin couch. I'll ironically enjoy a 'mindfreaking' for one.
I mean... who wants to watch something fake, even if it is meant for entertainment?
