"Synthetic Speech Training Tapes -- Caryn Navy
Is someone in your life a blind computer nerd? Do you wonder why he or she ignores you? Do you feel that he or she would pay more attention to you if you sounded like the beloved voice synthesizer? After conducting extensive educational research, we at Sensory Overload developed just the solution for you. Sensory Overload is now selling Hooked on Synphonix, a set of training tapes that will have you sounding like synthetic speech in no time at all! If the special someone in your life is a speed demon at the computer, you will appreciate the final lesson, "Talking at Warp Speed.""
If you immitated some of the modern synths, it wouldn't be so bad. But can you imagine? "Oh honey, I love you so much. You sound just like my Doubletalk!" or "Na, I'm not in the mood for Echo tonight. Let's do Decktalk." hahahaha

I'm sure it was meant as a joke in the first place. *smile*

got to love the lesson about talking at warp speed. My mom constantly complains that I talk way too fast, and she firmly blames it on how fast I listen to jaws! rofl

I looked at that site. I wonder if the tech decoys are also a joke?
