Anyone else have to do chores with this monster? I was terrified I'd run over the cord and get electrocuted. Also, I was so bad at chores. Instead of just getting it done, I'd moan and complain for hours over a dusting job that should take 15 minutes. 😆.. I used to accuse my mom and dad of adopting me just to do chores! #kirbyvacuums #80sKid #Chores https://www.instagram.com/p/CZdfSBYMbwW/?utm_medium=tumblr

Lol. If I say "This vacuum cleaner sucks." Is it a fantastic vacuum cleaner, a terrible vacuum cleaner or just a regular vacuum cleaner?

Is it an irony, paradox, or oxymoron? I just want it to pick up the paperclip.

Wait, wouldn't that make me a vacuum cleaner cleaner?

Obligatory before and after of the #kirby #restoration. The Kirby Classic III circa 1976-1979. I grew up with a Kirby Heritage, the model that came out after this one in a royal blue. #vintagevacuum #kirbyvacuum

Do you have a moment for me to tell you about the Kirby?

I want to tell you a story.

It felt like eons ago, but it happened just yesterday. Around 4:10 p.m. a young man knocked on my door. I did not know him. He's either a salesman or a Jehovah's witness. He was a salesman.

He offered me a small bottle of dish soap as an enticement. I wasn't enticed by the dish soap. He asked if he could demonstrate the "Kirby" something or other. Before this moment, I had no knowledge of what a "Kirby" was. My friend, I now know more than enough about the Kirby. I'll explain later what that means. I tell the young man I will not be purchasing anything today. He explains that he receives "credits" for just showing me. I think I know what this means but oh boy, I do not. I allow this young man into my home. I want him to receive his credits. I am not a monster.

I notice there is no car in my driveway, just a spiffily dressed man holding dish soap. It's fucked up, but life is fucked up. Whatever.

This man, who I soon to learn is named Marcus, enters my home with a disassembled box of things. I now immediately see how this will play out. I'm not going anywhere anytime soon. Bernard (the dog) is going absolutely ballistic and is locked in the bedroom. We shall soon discover the extent at which he's damaged the walls out of either anxious curiosity or a desire to protect me from an intruder. The world may never know Bernard's true intentions.

So here we are, Marcus and I, a strange happenstance which is playing out in my living room. Little did I know that for the next two hours plus good Sir Marcus would be stranded in my home covering everything in small white filters demonstrating the hellish dirty landscape in which myself and my partner exist in. I say "stranded" since as further enlightenment has shown me, that's how they do it. As I soon learn, the "Kirby" is a "10 in 1" vacuum cleaner. It doesn't yet, but it will.

Come 5 something my sweet potato arrives home and it's my duty to alert them that we have a visitor. They enter and are additionally subjected to learning about all of the wonderful things the "Kirby" can do. Did you know the Kirby has hoses with materials created by NASA? Did you know the Kirby can be used to clean out clogged sinks and toilets? Did you know the Kirby can be used to vacuum out the 20% of your mattress that is bedbug carcasses and bedbug shit? I did not, but you're not going into my bedroom or bathroom, young man. You haven't even brought me to a movie first.

It's hour 1.5 and Marcus asks how often we vacuum the rug. "Once every week" is the answer he gets. After a bit of mental math Marcus demonstrates how much dirt the Kirby will unearth in contrast to our far inferior "Bissel with no whistle" (as he described it.) He then begins to count to 52 as he vacuums the rug, back and forth, replacing the circular filter pads every four strokes to demonstrate the superior cleaning power of the Kirby. It's at this time my stomach begins to grumble. You see, I awake later in the day due to my schedule and good Sir Marcus has interrupted my regular mealtime. It's at this point where I begin to understand what's happening here. Similar things happen in cults. They try to break you down. The Kirby salespeople use cult tactics to get you to buy vacuum cleaners. I correct myself now, they're not "technically" "Kirby" salespeople. You see, after a bit of research I learned a bit about this young man who's trying VERY hard to sell me something at 400% it's value because he has a newborn. Well, not about him, but about the Kirby is sold.

Kirby vacuum cleaners are sold by secondary recruited salespeople which deal a bit like Amway. If you don't know what Amway is, do a Google. People can recruit other people as "Independent Contractors" which they are in no way, shape of form required to pay since they're required to sign a contract. A tad cultish and very very unkind. They advertise vague jobs on Craigslist offering lavish promises that do not exist. Do a bit of research, you'll find a cavalcade of information. Back to good Sir Marcus.

Now having our living room covered in small white filter pads (which I'm assuming are meant to make us feel some kind of repulsion for the filthy lives we're living) another gentleman shows up at the door with some kind of shampooing attachment. He makes a joke about me murdering the salesperson with a knife and making a big puddle of blood. He leaves. Being "out of the loop" I wonder if this is the type of joke strangers make to each other now. Additionally....

"We're in the home stretch" I think to myself.

Let me say now that I believe dear Marcus to be a wonderful man. I understood his motivations and personally I felt he was a good , I desired to help. I knew that if I didn't accept him into our home he would be required to pitch after pitch after pitch and may be subjected to mean people and disappointment. The time was something I was willing to sacrifice. That being said, let's move on.

He begins speaking about "high traffic areas" and this is about the time I start talking about supper. He's trapped, I'm trapped, it's a no win situation for anyone. Life sucks for everyone at the moment. I'm cool with that. He knows he's not selling anything but he's stranded in my home. He adds the special soap and begins foaming all over the carpet. The machine leaves very impressive globs of soap and less impressively sucks them back up. Everyone is disappointed at the moment but that's life. 2 hours in and I really give little shits about our "high traffic areas". This fucking machine is in pieces all over the place. I'm not buying it, he knows I'm not buying it. All I can think about is a quick supper with grilled vegetables. This is when we're delivered the information I've been asking for the entire time.

Good Sir Marcus attempts to sell me a vacuum cleaned with some attachments for two thousand fucking dollars.

"Comedian" isn't my job but I really did my best to make this man laugh throughout his entire spiel. As he brought up his bullet points I imagined him in a class headed by some maniac promising that I, the consumer, would be helpless to resist. I knew the mention of bedbugs was supposed to be the coup d'état that would have me dribbling to own a "Kirby". "FREE ME FROM MY FILTH" I was supposed to scream.

There's more. I know you love reading. Don't lie.

Now comes the "haggling". Now he knew there would be no haggling, but his cult leader boss required proof that he tried. Marcus laughed as he went through the stages of marking down this vacuum in hopes that this would make me feel like I was getting a bargain. We shared a moment as he spewed off numbers I no longer cared about. He asked for my initials as his pen ran out. Being the gentleman I am, I swiftly ran downstairs and shared with him the joy of the PILOT G-2 07 pen. That's right, I gave this man a pen. I tend to give these pens away to everyone who has a shitty job and a shitty pen. It's my weakness, I guess. I just want the world to have a nice pen to do their shitty jobs with. SO SUE ME.

Now his buddy shows up. I expected it. The more seasoned man. His name was Michael. He made a bit of small talk and assessed the situation (I assume to try to drive the sale home) but as soon as I asked if they had eaten supper I noticed his enthusiasm drain away. I was a tit hair from inviting them both for supper. The pain everyone was enduring from the entire situation was on the cusp of being too much to bear. It was the end of the presentation, but not before an extensive 20 minute polishing session which we were fortunate enough to witness before they moved on to the next home.

"These poor guys" I thought. The whole time. The whole situation is terrible. They're not selling a vacuum for 2k and if they do, how will they feel about themselves? The pressure from their maniac boss, the minimal commission they'll receive. The pressure of not selling these things. "The Horror" - Marlon Brando

One pen and an old towel (and two and a half hours) is what this presentation cost us. If anyone shows up at your home offering to show you a "Kirby" whatever, please remember my story and make an informed choice. I didn't even mention the guilt factor presented when he said that he was in a contest to win a trip to Tennessee. Good Lord. I was hit from all sides with this visit. The pathos.

One more thing before I deliver the punchline I've been waiting for. When good Sir Marcus was washing his vacuum parts in our kitchen sink he managed to leave a crucial part behind. This concerned me because I feared he would return for it. He mentioned an 8 o'clock appt he was due to appear at. Come 9:30 I pictured him opening the box, realizing he left it in our home and coming back for it. Will they return? I do not know. I do know one thing though...

Selling vacuum cleaners sucks. *rimshot*
