GENIUS FORUMS

I was reading the paper this morning and saw this article which listed the top ten:

1. High heels
2. Neckties
3. Jet Skis
4. Leaf Blowers
5. Bass Amplifiers
6. Car Alarms
7. Television
8. Video Games
9. Automated Telephone Assistance
10. Cellphones

Did anything not make the list?

Billboards would come to mind, especially those new ones that are digital and change like a giant television set as if we need yet another one lying about or like those on the side of the highway that look like the screens in a football stadium displaying the likes of "Happy Birthday ____" or "Guess who's turning 40?50?60? _________"

Unwanted by whom? Most people I know want just about all of the above. Looks like it's intended to be a humorous list, anyhow.

My list would include gunpowder, the repeating rifle, the guided missile, the cluster bomb, napalm, the atomic bomb, the uranium-enriched armor piercing shell, and the so-called War on Terror, in general. My domestic two would be the modern news media, and, believe it or not, clothespins.

Just kidding. the cell phone.

what's wrong with jetskis?

Jet skis are annoying for people at the beach or other boaters because they are loud and create big waves.

1. High heels
2. Neckties
3. Jet Skis
4. Leaf Blowers
5. Bass Amplifiers
6. Car Alarms
7. Television
8. Video Games
9. Automated Telephone Assistance
10. Cellphones

1. Sexy for men- Ouch for women.
2. More workplace suicides as a result.
3. Fun, but yes noisy
4. No point to those...
5. Why just bass?
6. Especially for the burgalar.
7. Depends.
8. Fun, but a waste of time.
9. Why?
10. Does anyone not have one?

I wanted to build self-defence weapons a while ago. Deodorant can and a lighter can give a mugger quite a scare, but then again, they might get the idea themselves and use it against others. Criminals here are brutal but very stupid ( this one guy followed me to my flat one night, and he actually started walking out in front of me and then went and waited at the gate for me where I could see him!! Idiot! Well, I turned around and ran for my life! ) Anyway, I wanted to build built-in wrist darts that shoot out from under your sleeves, as well as "the shooting wheel" Its this wooden or metal wheel and every point of the wheel has darts or bullets or whatever and you hook it into your waist and then it shoots all around your body all at once killing every living thing around you. Fun. The size of the wheel might be a problem, unless you can fold the contraption up. Or, I could build simple bombs to throw at criminals. Trouble is I am too absent minded, I will probably end up exploding myself or my hand or something, or killing an innocent.
