Oprah dropped her annual Favorite Things holiday gift guide.  As usual, it contains way too many things for her to have actually tried . . . or even heard of . . . herself.  But still . . .

There’s plenty of affordable stuff on the list, but rich people shop for the holidays too, right?  That’s why it includes a $2,000 espresso machine, and a $700 indoor pizza oven.

Perhaps the most absurd item on the list is a $60 pair of anti-fog reading glasses . . . for the SHOWER.

Why does one need reading glasses in the shower?  Well, to quote whoever wrote this pretending to be Oprah:  “Anyone who’s tried to read deep conditioner instructions after it’s on will appreciate a pair.”  (???)
