[Closed] Useless Inventions

I'm not sure I'd want to try and print one, tbh.

particularly the motors and pcb's 😉

I have a fear of a swarm of self replicating 3D printers consuming all available raw materials and engulfing the planet.

Wine bottle stopper.

fatbikes
(someone had to say it)

forums.

Anything with a spout which doesn't pour perfectly.

Anything you stick on a hob with handles which get hot.

Non alcoholic beer!

Garlic press! Faster and less cleaning up with a sharp knife.

My ex-wife.

Resealable M&M packs

decaff coffee - utterly pointless

quorn - its just crap

quorn isn't useless
If you eat it it provides you with protein

decaff coffee - i see your point

[i]If you eat it it provides you with protein [/i]

If I eat it it provides me with a night spent hurling my guts up.

Anything in that little magazine that comes with the Sunday paper

650B - someone had to say it!

beat me to it!

those battery powered soap dispensers, I tend not to touch the top of the disgustingly unhygienic manual dispenser after I have washed my dirty hands, maybe i just dont get it

windows 8 for none touchscreen devices?
or maybe that should just be "windows 8."

29ers...someone had to say it....or is that what OP is on about when he mentions saddles??

for bikes : 15mm axles, 35mm bar clamps, and any headset standard developed by Giant.

for cars : automatic handbrakes.

...without a shadow of a doubt is the most useless bike thingy Iv ever seen

...apart from 29ers 🙂

Garlic press! Faster and less cleaning up with a sharp knife.

unless your wife just leaves it on the side and refuses to clean it...

Actually... I like this idea. If only for the gauges. Gauges are cool.

Non alcoholic beer!

As someone who is teetotal I can confirm this! They taste like crap and there are loads of nicer soft drinks to consume.

- that adaptrac would be great on a fatbike 😉

Quorn there's plenty of tasting options out there for protien without making that rubbish.

Mens grooming products.

Curved TV screens. Who has ever sat watching TV and thought the programme could be better if only the screen was a bit more concave?

Right.

Automatic handbrake would have saved at least one life that I know of.

Decaf coffee - some people like the taste of coffee but can't handle all that much caffeine.

Quorn. The packaging it comes in tastes better. If you don't want to eat meat, don't. Replacing it with cardboard based protein substitute is a waste of the other ingredients. Just make a vegetable version.

Ed Balls. Such a cosmic c***

/thread closed/

The button on the remote control that opens the CD / DVD drawer on the CD / DVD player.

emsz, what is that?
is it for storing mice in?

Any new standard championed by Giant gets my vote - there's a reason why none of my bikes are a Giant.

Also, anything involving splines and bearings made by RaceFace, which will inevitably be rendered scrap within a short space of time.

And Michael Gove. We need to deport him to an uninhabited and remote island somewhere before he does any more damage.

Cheap shite that only works for a limited time, so it's not worth the earths resources being given up for it's creation.
