mom got me a footbath massager thingy the other day, so i unpacked it just now to read the instructions and give it a try… one of the first things i saw in the booklet was
Caution: All servicing of this footbath must be performed by authorized HoMedics service personnel only.
that warning sounds like a tagline from a bad porno involving people with a foot fetish… ^^;;
