RemoverInstaller 20th Anniversary Edition

Our pal Rob Walker says:

Once upon a time, designer/artist Shawn Wolfe conjectured an imaginary product, backed by a vigorous ersatz ad campaign: The RemoverInstaller™. More recently, in a special arrangement that (disclosure!) I was involved in, a limited number of RemoverInstaller™s were 3D-printed on a MakerBot Replicator for a show at apexart in New York.

And now a limited number, with Shawn's amazing packaging, are for sale ... and so reasonably priced!

Snap 'em up.

Shawn did a bunch of great illustrations for bOING bOING and the Happy Mutant Handbook.

I am in Los Angeles. Does somebody know who I could talk to about making some limited edition packaging like this?

Discontinue use of RemoverInstaller if any of the following occurs:
itching
vertigo
dizziness
tingling in extremities
loss of balance or coordination
slurred speech
temporary blindness
profuse sweating
heart palpitations

If RemoverInstaller begins to smoke, get away immediately. Seek shelter and cover head. RemoverInstaller may stick to certain types of skin.

When not in use, RemoverInstaller should be returned to its special container and kept under refrigeration. Failure to do so relieves the makers of RemoverInstaller Wacky Products Incorporated, and its parent company, Global Chemical Unlimited, of any and all liability.

Reminds me of a friend’s recent tweet.

There’s like a million brands of these, but why can’t I find a single decent Installer Remover?

That’s great, but what I really need is an InstallerRemover.

I can vouch for this product. I first bought one of their competitor’s products. It broke and nearly decapitated the dog on the third use!
