Money

If we could just trade things, life would be better for me.

Oh, and books too (especially E-books).
What happened to the time when we were all sitting in our caves around the fire, telling stories to eachother? That was much better.

And finally, cars. All they did was cause traffic jams, pollute the earth and let people spend more time each day on work (causing all sorts of bad things like stress...)

Well I dunno what the world's worst invention is, but I work for a patent law office, and we have this one invention, an old one that FAILED miserably years ago, yet I guess before I came to work there, someone decided to install his "sample invention" into our bathroom. It is a toilet paper roll holder. Is made of metal/chrome? It is one big spring about an inch and a half wide. The two ends have these raised sections that are supposed to fit into the shaped slots on the holder. But it being all chromey and springy and slippery, you think you have a new roll nice and secure in the holder, then about 10 seconds later the entire roll holder (with TP roll) goes flying forward, hitting the far bathroom wall, lands a good 4 feet from you. What a shite invention!!! Although (cough!) I have to say that it has had its uses in the past. Like when we had this one attorney temporarily working in our office that was a huge butthole, mean as a snake to everyone, even the 75 year old secretary who is extremely quiet and sweet. He didn't know about the toilet paper holder. So I kinda set it so it wasn't EXACTLY fitted into the slot one day on purpose. Worked like a charm, he went into the bathroom, and after about 15 or so seconds I heard the telltale "clang" of the metal hitting the wall LOL! I know... I'm bad. Only did it once, if that makes a difference http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif

You know childhood is over when a puddle seems like an obstacle instead of an opportunity.

Is Too! Is Not! Is Too! Is Not!

Wendy are you the office prankster? http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif I love it!!!!!!!!!

well...._I_ think that...palm pilots are pretty useless...so are...that's all i can think of...

by the way, a solar powered flash light is a great idea if the battery is charged while in the sun, so then you can use it at night.

And parking meters don't have to be electronic at all!!!

the 'no' U-turn signs = people ignore them
paper = trees destroyed
resealable bags = they can't reseal worth a ....*cussing*
exercise gimmick machines = buy it, use it once, ignore it, and sell at the garage sale.

Paper? Yeah, what were they thinking? That it grows on trees?

At least trees can grow back. Stones tablets don't.
