   There is a certain fetishistic vibe to this video that makes it feel like a snuff film. I had to look over my shoulder afterward because I felt so self-conscious.

   Rate your intelligence sociopathy masculinity ability to think outside the box and be a team player by giving yourself one point for each step you took along this train of thought before the guy chucked the brick:

   1. Haha.
   2. That's interesting.
   3. It's messed up because the drum isn't balanced.
   4. It doesn't look like it's getting worse.
   5. It's not shaking itself apart fast enough.
   6. I want to see it shake itself apart.
   7. I bet if you put something heavy in the drum, it would shake itself apart a lot faster.
   8. Where would you find something heavy around here?
   9. I wonder how fast a well functioning washing machine would shake itself apart with something heavy in the drum?
   10. I need about ten washing machines and objects of various weights.
   11. I bet the neighbors have washing machines.
   12. I bet I could sell new washing machines to everyone in my neighborhood.
   13. I need about ten guys to start a company.
   14. I bet I could design a washing machine that reliably shakes itself apart as soon as the warranty ends.
   15. Creating synergy by vertically integrating with suppliers and other B2B parters will be the key to continued growth and maximizing shareholder value.

     neighbors are a poor sales pool; consider laundromats.
