The professional bullshit artists and dumbass fleecers over at Monster have devised another way to remove money from the wallets of the ignorant: cleaning sprays. They've released five different sprays for five different types of devices: a camera spray, a cell phone spray, an iPhone spray (Buchanan posits that this one is made of pure angel tears), a GPS spray and a laptop spray. Yes, Monster wants you to think that your GPS and your cellphone need separate sprays, lest your phone is destroyed by the magical chemicals that can only clean a surface that displays driving directions. While yes, perhaps laptop screens need a different spray than the glass iPhone, this is a bit beyond overkill. Each bottle of these precious fluids cost $10, which is a pretty sizable markup seeing that they just took a bunch of Windex, watered it down and put it into tiny bottles with different colored labels on it.

DISCUSSION
Why the hate? These are all specially formulated for the various materials that go into the different screens/surfaces.
The camera cleanser is a careful blend of the cell phone and GPS sprays.
The GPS spray is a mix of the iPhone and camera.
The laptop is cell phone and iPhone.
and the iPhone cleanser is urine - but its Steve Job's urine.
