Groovy VibrationsCourtesy of Groove Thing Groove Thing Internal Music Player $250 Groove ThingWhen I opened the package, I immediately understood why Groove Thing's PR team kept calling it the “Ugly Box,” because the hardware was ugly, crude, and unrefined. Per the instructions, I plugged the Groove Thing into the wall (yes, you need to be decently close to an outlet), paired it to my phone via Bluetooth, and inserted the condom-wrapped G-spot vibrator into me. If music and sex are intimately intertwined for you, the Groove Thing might pique your interest. Groove Thing will say its vibrations are more dynamic, and maybe that's true, but not enough for me to keep the tunes going.
