Which modern convenience should never have been invented?

What modern convenience should never have been invented? Cigarettes I'd have to say. What about you?

"Texting".

I could tolerate a shit load of foolishness to some extent, but I get pissed off when I see somebody texting while driving.

Just TODAY, I saw somebody texting in the car while his child was with him,,,,,this texting craze sure did bring out a population of morons.

Unnecessary Twitter can book a one way flight to hell too bored2

I'd have to agree with both, it is not necessary to let everyone know you took a shit that looked like a sheperd's crook.

Agreed. We could be using the energy

those of you opting against paper
towels. When you blow dry your hands a bum gets hypothermia.
