I bought a Dyson DC-07 Super-Vacuumatic this week, and it's so hard for me to keep from saying,"It sucks!" In fact, it's so tough that I've made the joke ten or fifteen times now, despite the fact that it is a horrible, lame joke that has probably been made about every single vacuum cleaner since Ogg the nostrilopicethus used his wooly mammoth's trunk to clean the dust from the corner of his cave, and was so obvious then that Mrs. Ogg rolled her eyes and reflected on how she had let an idiot drag her off by her hair.

So yes, it sucks. The housekeepers vacuumed Thursday afternoon with our old vacuum. I used this thing on two rooms, in a very-not-thorough-hey-I'm-a-guy fashion, and it had picked up way too much weird white powder (either particulate plaster or eww-ick cat litter dust) and lots of fuzz and carpet lint. The huge quantity of carpet lint makes me think this would probably suck the entire carpet up with it, so be careful on delicate rugs, especially if you own them.

Of course, while seeing what my new toy could pick up, Kat made the comment,"Wow, if I knew that buying a new vacuum would get you to use one, I would have ordered one ages ago," promptly proving that wives are like the Fun Vacuums of the world, and believe me when I say that's not a good thing.
