Here is something every guy needs in his house or college dorm room. A refrigerator that will toss you a can of beer while you sit on the couch.

Although an absolutely fantastic invention, I prefer my pint delivered to me by someone in a short skirt. I don't think that would go particularly well with the beer launcher.

and how well shook up is that beer. doesn't help if you gotta wait or get a beer bath.

With the amount of noise it makes, I might as well get up and go to the fridge to get a beer, because I'm sure not going to be able to hear the TV over that thing.


It sure is a cool concept, though. :D

I can't catch anything. I would be watching cans of beer hitting off the wall and exploding. Beer is to be in my belly getting me drunk, not soaking into my carpets.

The Rise of the Machines begins in a college dorm. Oh sure, they'll serve cold brewskis but how long before the fridge gets pissed and starts lobbing grenades at fratboys?

:D

That's all well and good at the start of the evening, but once you've had a few, how the hell are you going to catch them?

Not a bad invention.

awesome! if they make it quieter. and for extra super-lazy awesomeness combine it with a catheter so you never need to get up off the couch!... maybe not.

Wouldn't it be easier to leave a cooler full of beer next to the couch?

there's always one has to go and be all sensible and point out the logical flaw in having a fridge on the wrong side of the room but with a throwing arm attached :rolleyes: :p

A funnel would be simpler, no?

well if you've got a motorized beer-lauching fridge why settle for something so technologically mundane as a funnel when you can steal from a hospital?

or something.

I think it would be nicer if it could launch non-carbonated drinks too... perhaps it could launch me some orange juice so I can put it in with my vodka.

It will go perfectly with the beer pouring robot (http://ohgizmo.com/2006/01/26/asahis-beer-pouring-robots/) I wish I owned.

I've obviously had one too many beer machine beverages....

Your wife that doesn't exist, spends her time throwing beer cans at you? Sounds like an interesting relationship. :p
