This definitely gets my vote.

Duct tape? OUCH. [img]graemlins/uhoh1.gif[/img]
Maybe my country is very advanced in the lingerie department [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] but the strapless bras I've had so far were pretty good. I'll always prefer ones with straps, but the strapless ones work too. [img]smile.gif[/img]
As for sticky tape, are those the little skin-colour things you just stick on? Never tried them but they always seemed horrible to me - can't believe they would give any kind of support and again, OUCH I think would be the appropriate sound for taking them off.

Apart from that, matter transporters for faster and cheaper travelling. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]
And self-stocking fridges and cupboards. :D

Painless wax, yes indeed! Or better yet, painless and inexpensive permanent hair removal that doesn't take 6 months of appointments and you can do at home! :D

LOL, duct tape? That doesn't sound like a good look :D . Beauty over function, the eternal question ;) . Actually I know you can buy those sticky tape bra things, for when you wear one of those dresses slashed to the waist. Ooh I love clear straps! Another marvellous invention!

I hate to be the bearer of bad news and besides it would be probably much wiser to leave this particular topic for you gals to discuss amongst yourselves, but, sigh, I have always been the meddlesomely type: Clear straps are not great, because we will see them and they look inevitably very cheap and somehow like cheating. I know men are infamous for their limited, highly selective perception, but, unfortunately, the objects in question are in a body region where we focus on like on no other. Sorry.

Oh of course, only with tops with thin straps, not strapless! With strapless tops it would be a very bad look lol! ;) I totally agree, Ramon, about not having bra straps showing. Very poor form [img]graemlins/idontagreeatall.gif[/img] ;)

Hovering and self-page-turning books so you can read in bed without having your arms out from under the blankets and you don't get chest aches from having them rest there.

Combine the microwave bed and the Sleepreader... and WOW [img]graemlins/wow.gif[/img]

Depression remover - nothing to do with evil chemicals, but microwaves.. hey, I would give away a kidney to get this one.

Future Teller - very simple, you decide what you want to know about your life and what you want to achieve, and the machine tells you your chances (puts you down).
