Inventions that were supposed to help , but actually sucked

Ok . Just today I was thinking of 2 .

1. The new toilet thingy ... what is it supposed to use 1 liter of water instead of 2 ? But honestly , I dont think i have one toilet that i replaced that i can honestly say isnt a piece of crap (ok bad choice of wording) but ... seriously ... and dont even get me started about even my kids may have a large bowell movement and clog it up .... or if it takes 3 flushes to get the brown stuff down - how is that an improvement .... BUT THEY JUST DONT LAST AS LONG AS THE GOOD OLD DINASAUR TOILETS also .... hehe

2. The new curly lightbulbs . Honestly . They were supposed to be so great ... but then they find out they have mercury and you cant even throw them away without contaminating the whole landfill where they will be located ....

any more ... ? hmm wink wink confused confused

Colonel Angus may be smelly. colonel angus may be a little rough . but deep down ... Colonel angus is very sweet.

Olestra.

The minute I first heard the words "anal leakage" in relation to Olestra-fried potato chips, I decided I did not want to try them, not even once. Turns out I was not alone.

I totally agree with this one. I also don't like their light. It flickers just a little.

99% of my posts are ironic. Maybe this post sides with the other 1%.

yeahthat I hate the fuckers. Half the time I can't understand what the person is saying because the sound quality of cell phones is shitful. I hate it when my cousin calls me. She must have a cheap ass phone because it sounds like she's talking to me on a fucking walkie talkie. I often ask her to hang up and call me on a land line or an office phone through a computer. The only reason I have a ce;ll phone is for emergencies and on the road. Other than that, I use the house phone.
