We have the BIG MUSEUM thread but it got me thinking about a little throw away comment in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy about the [b]Museum of Diseased Imaginings[/b].

If I win the euro millions I want to open this place for the future education of society.

So what (not more than) 3 item(s) would you nominate as being just a fundamentally crap idea that with any kind of common sense should never have been made.

Mine:

Sinclair C5 - just no. It's as slow as a bike, exposed to the elements but low down and looks goofy.

"Reality" TV - it's about as real as most of the tans on its "stars"

PF30 bottom bracket - I'm sure I don't need to explain

I'd love to say Brexit, but it pails into insignificance, compared to these:

Religion
White Power/superiority
Oil, coal and gas as fuels

Monorail - would help everyone get round all the other crap ideas
Piers - like being on a ship but after the voyage you're still in Blackpool
Peers - of the realm. Bunch of bumholes

The Museum of Failure in Sweden closes in about two weeks, perhaps it counts as a diseased imagining.

You should graduate to the real stuff at some point, it's a much more pleasant experience...

I have drunk real coffee you know, I just don't think it's all that much better usually. stevomcd more or less dragged us all to a place in italy and promised us all proper beautiful italian coffee, served by a proper beautiful italian homosexual, and it really tasted just like the Tesco Finest Costa Rican instant I like.

Reminds me of that ad on TV years ago, when the CEO was handed some coffee, sipped it, shrugged and said "Well I can;t tell the difference between the instant and real coffee, what's next?"

always had me shouting "WELL THEN YOU SHOULDN'T BE RUNNING AND F******G COFFEE COMPANY THEN SHOULD YOU!" - even though I knew it was all fictional.

It will come to light that the whole coffee industry is the same as with wine. It's all the same and is just there to get you blind drunk / keep you awake. Instant coffee is amazing when you have a child who doesn't sleep. Keeps you awake, but involves minimal pissing about.
