My roommate got tired of vacuums that gave up after a month. We got one of the big boy vacuums (a used Kirby) and that thing could rip the chrome off a trailer hitch.

Next time your $200 Walmart vacuum dies, trying finding a vacuum store that sells used. Some Kirbys are 30+ years old and still kicking.

A vacuum cleaner that's called kirby... And is a really powerful sucker. Something here isn't an accident.

~~The character was named after the vacuum cleaner.~~ Edit: Looks like I was mistaken

The character was named after a lawyer that defended Nintendo in a lawsuit

They really should be suing Nintendo.
