No.
It's the green orb from the original Heavy Metal movie.

Schitt, really? I saw something about it being hemaroidal. I have a little experience with those.

I would love to know how well the craft ice maker works. I have had my eye on LG's just for that feature.

Will provide a report once we get it. They look so pretty in the photos, but I don't really think they'll turn out perfectly clear and round.

There was a whole comedy of errors around our order, so ended up having to cancel (they put the wrong model number on the order) and ordering it from somewhere else, but now the delivery isn't for 8 days.

Had to buy a 5 cubic feet minifridge to bridge the gap. That's OK though because I've been meaning to buy a man-cave fridge anyway for my home office/gamer room!
