Worst Inventions

[suegha]

Inspired by another thread on 'great inventions'. I have some pet hates.

Toilet paper dispensers that shread your fingers as you try to get paper out.

Tea pots (in motorway service stations) That dribble tea all over the table no matter how careful you are.

That's enough from me - any thoughts?

If I could qualify this as 'organised' or 'orthodox' religion, I would agree!

What about if it ejected you out through the floor? I suppose this would just be a trap-door!

It's a hotel fire snorkel, really, saw it a few years back. It won some sort of prize for innovation.

The idea is that the air in the stack is free from smoke so you can breathe until the fire service arrives to rescue you.

Not sure about what would be worse though, poisonous smoke or the result of my morning evacuation

Everyone has or will probably get one of these poor imitations of a Swiss Army knife at some point.

Designed to do many tasks, but not any one task very well.

All they do is close up on an errant finger or two, or are just a pain in the as...
