Inventions! Where would we be without them? Did you know that money doesn’t grow on trees? Someone actually had to invent it! Why? So we could use it to buy other things that don’t grow on trees, like: Computers! Airplanes! And toilet paper! Well…OK, that does kind of grow on trees. But the point is, inventions make the world a safer, happier, more livable place. Then again, some are completely useless.

Avocado Seat Belt?
Because slicing bananas is SO hard. Right?
Butter Glue Stick?
Car Cigarette Lighter Burger Cooker. Who knew we needed this?
Chopstick Noodle Cooling Fan.
Cozy Conversational Duo-Toilet with, like, no room for you feet. Which could ruin the whole experience.
Eyedrop Glasses, because…um…
No more embarassing under-glove nudity!
Handy Jacket Watch Window!
Do you have two mouths? If so, this is for you!
Nosepaper. (Flushing device not included.)

Picnic Pants! Because…um…
Stylishly flaccid Ropeware. (Dining efficiency may vary.)
“In a world without spoons…” No more using sharp knives to put those peas in your mouth!
Self-watering Can. Why should plants get all the water?
Now you can lie down anywhere! Or just nap while you walk!

Ummm…
Whine Glass?
Ummm…
Walk ‘n’ Sit Springy Thingy. Because…um…

LOL There certainly are many new products that fit in that category.
Gotta love that Te Quiero USBear thumb drive, though!
I know, right?
Boy those are just weird!
Brilliantly ribald
But you just never know when one might come in handy!
Mind boggling…bonkers! 🤪😂😂
Poor teddy.
Now the apple cosy is understandable. Anyone who loves knitting and crochet and belongs to groups of like minded people, will know we are constantly looking for new ideas of things to make, having already kitted out family, friends and pets with every conceivable garment.
How about a truck cozy for dad?
You mean something like this?

That’s hilarious!
The butter roll-on stick. I kind of like that one. But how does one use it to make cookies? 😂
;>) And how do you refill it?
It actually looks like a really easy way to butter bread.
I can see why they flopped. Unreal!
Just because you can invent these things doesn’t mean you should.
Exactly!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I wonder what that avocado thingy does. If it’s something to stop the avocado from getting discolored after you cut it, then I would certainly buy one.
You’d could be right, Janice. I’d assumed it was a seatbelt, or should I say”seedbelt?” (Sorry :>)
wow and I’d love to see the numbers on sales
Good point. That could be eye opening.
I could probably use those underpants for the hands to wear under my mittens, but I’d want a ladies’ style. 🙂
;>)
Women used to wear those (knitted) a couple of centuries back around the house. I suppose it makes it easier to use your fingertips, and were probably good to keep your hands somewhat warm in homes without central heating, but they sure wouldn’t be much good in a Canadian winter!
Where do you find this stuff?
I’m a Google-whisperer, Kathy.
Lol
Too funny and useless!
Mitch, many of these are very valuable! How can you say banana slicers, butter applicators, chopstick fans, dual toilet seats, eyedrop guides and others are useless⁉️
Please send me a headwrap tissue dispenser and a hand/head sweater warmer as soon as possible … and send the bill to my brother!😂
;>)
A Tandem Toilet??
That a definite no go!
I’m inclined to agree, Nancy. Very inclined.
Fantastic! You have single-handedly solved all my Christmas gift-giving problems with one blog post! Thanks, Mitch!
;>) You’re welcome, Anonymous!
That reminds me of the inventions by Gaston La Gaffe, a French comic book character I loved to read as a kid. However, I could maybe use the butter stick.
Oh these are too funny! I kind of like that lay down anywhere pillow. 🙃
;>)
The handerwear immediately reminded me of an episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000, in which the mad scientists introduced their new invention, chinderwear (so we can now be embarrassed about our chins).
I could actually see a market for the USB Bears.
;>)
Thanks for the giggles. Your post reminds me of a Dragon’s Den episode where someone tried to get investment for a ‘tea-bag bin’ with no success. 🤓
Some days I would really like to hide in one of those cozy laptop viewers
;>)
I can see a few of these might be useful. The pillow hat, the seat and picnic pants..maybe even the CD shoes but how would the cd not break with the pressure?
This was such a well-crafted post! I love how you detailed. It’s amazing how much there is to discover. Thanks for sharing!

As always, thanks for the laughs, Mitch!
As always, my pleasure, Peggy!
Underpants for your hands; a creative (?) way to administer eyedrops; a tennis shoe CD player (inc. speakers!). Three of my favorites. 😂😂😂
