Orgasmatron: false advertising?

lrg-3-orgasmatron.jpgAustralia's Orgasmatron is extremely effective at making one's head tingly. Techopolis wheels it out for excoriation on the grounds that "Orgasmatron" is a deceptive product name, given that it does not actually give one orgasms.

To be quite frank, this particular criticism is disturbing. It suggests that the author—who I am sure is a perfectly normal, well-balanced person—looked at the writhing profusion of metallic spines, concluded from the name that it is intended for genital use, and was later disappointed.

Wikipedia has a list of classic Orgasmatrons from fiction. The one you're thinking of, however, was in fact called the Excessive Machine.

No, I'm pretty sure the one I'm thinking of was called the Orgasmatron.

These things often show up at Raves, there's always someone with one. Their name is a bit more accurate under those conditions....

In conjunction with dropping MDMA.

Those spray bottle fans with water are also popular.
