Tonight I came across an example of how much energy people can waste trying to get back to nature. The example came in the form of a Hunter brand air filter. It is, for lack of better words, a vacuum cleaner that blows air into the room that it sucked from. The selling point is that the air is somehow better.

From my perspective it is a machine that wastes electricity to sound like a fan and make the air smell like nothing at all. Who wants air that smells like nothing? Is there a song about that kind of sterility? I wager not.

As best I can tell this air filtration piece of junk is trying to be a proxy for whatever goes through Luke Bryan's head as he sings about a box fan sucking in swamp air. The difference is that Luke Bryan is a musician. This air filter is plastic.
