The Worst Invention Ever

[Voltano]

I'd have to say Aardvark [http://vark.com/]. According to the website, you connect it with a facebook account and tell it a bunch of emails of friends who you know are experts of various fields. Then, when you have a question on something, you post it to Aardvark, which sends it to the best person in the email list qualified to answer that question and they write an answer back, which is sent back to you.

I got an email from on of my friends wanting to sign me up for this because I'm the only one she knows that is good with programming on this end. I don't have a facebook account, so no reason to use it anyways.

If you know the person enough to know their skills and their email, and you have a question they may answer...Why not just ask the person than ask some third party?

Thw worst invention ever has got to be the Hybrid

Although I have no proof, I seem to remember them actually working to an extent.

The grabber two pack.
I mean one grabber, ok. Something out of reach, or a bulb needs changing. All power to you to get the grabber
but two?
I mean when are you ever going to need two grabbers? In case you put the first one up to high and need the other one to get it down?

 

[Fbuh]

The Rotary Dildo.

That's almost as bad as the Baby Jesus butt plug I saw.

 

[Sassafrass]

wii darts, wii bowling ball and the joke tazer that shoots at the holder

.....WHY!?

The Joke Tazer sounds evil yet an awesome joke.

Yeah, I'd quite happily get one of those.

OT:The Pocket Fisherman.

Spoiler: The most pointless thing EVER! (After DVD rewinder)

Because everyone who fishes is tiny, obviously. And can't afford a proper fishing rod.

THE SNUGGIE! it can burn in hell

Twitter, as soon as they start charging people. Which they will.

And welcome to the Escapist!

Agreed. Hell, even now.

At the moment, it's tied with the status updates for every other social networking site.
Seriously, people... why? Why is twitter so popular?

THE SNUGGIE! it can burn in hell

Hehehe... I saw those things at Costco. Unsurprisingly, nobody gave them a second glance.

How the hell did you quote him before he said such a thing!?
