Ah,
college. That time of your life when you had to buy a mini refrigerator, extra-long twin sheets and wonder when your dorm room last received a thorough cleaning.
Toshiba launched three
back-to-school-themed videos, targeting college students shopping for tech devices for the school year. “Chicken Prank,” begins like a kill scene from “Dexter” with a college
guy covered in plastic wrap on his bed. He’s unable to move and there’s live chickens flying around. The guy is able to use his big toe to swipe his computer screen (thank you,
Toshiba gesture control) and open his apps. Hopefully, he updated his Facebook status to “I’m gonna be late today.”
See it here. Another video shows two roommates sharing calculus notes. Unfortunately, the guy sent the wrong
document and now his roomie knows how he really feels about him. Cue the awkward photo of the roomie depicted as a hunky centaur.
Watch it here. The final video illustrate why you should never use a black light in a college dorm room. Nothing is
clean. On the plus side, the USB-powered black light can be charged even when a laptop is sleeping.
