Popinator... say what? Say "pop!" This nifty device (real or not?) looks super cool, but probably not practical after the novelty wears off. Imagine watching a romantic movie with a date or spouse and saying "pop" every few seconds whenever you want some. (Oh, did I just...!?!?... Please just don't go there!)
The POPINATOR Project
We are constantly coming up with new flavors, new packaging, and new innovations for popcorn. However, the one thing that never changes about popcorn is the way we eat it. Well, what if there was a way to change the way people eat popcorn by making it more fun? Say hello to our 'Popinator' - the world’s first fully automated, voice activated popcorn shooter triggered by the word "pop".

Check out their video to see the POPINATOR in action.

Sounds like a choking hazard. I can't even toss a peanut up in the air and catch it without almost strangling myself. LOL

It might be novel to point at someone and say, "Pop!" and shoot the person with popcorn.

If you say pop it shoots popcorn at you...
I agree your idea seems much more enjoyable, but the technology for that hasn't been invented yet.
Tell you what, you make it and I will buy it.

If you could work it with a button instead of having to say something I would use it all day long! It sounds fun!

It did not make me think, "lazy," it made me think of a game because it tosses the popcorn and you have to catch it in your mouth, but I see what you mean. You can just toss the kernel up in the air yourself. lol

Why is every modern contraption made today a disturbing or worthless piece of garbage? I miss the old world where technology was good and not intrusive.
