No point

Is everyone becoming really lazy or is the world just becoming more technologically advanced? Perhaps it's a combination of both. I think inventions arise because people are lazy. Take the car, for example. Who on Earth wants to walk around (myself included) when you can have a machine do the walking for you? Of course, we all know how useful the car is. The real laziness comes into play when you see people at a sporting event drinking a beverage out of a straw connected to a hat with two cup holders or when you see someone using one of those grasping claws around the house.

Speaking of inventions I think the most useless invention ever thought of was the banana saver. If you guys don't know what a banana saver is then look at the following link:


Although bananas bruise, they don't bruise that easily. As long as you don't substitute it as a football, it's really not going to make a difference how many scratches or lines you have on the outer skin of the banana because the inside will be equally delicious (or not delicious depending on whether or not you like eating bananas). Secondly, take a took at the shape of the banana saver. Now, can someone actually try to reason to me that every single banana is going to fit into that flimsy piece of plastic? Is every single banana shaped exactly the same? No, of course not. I's common sense. In that case you can only use your banana saver for certain bananas that are arched at a certain angle. I mean you could bend your banana and force it in; however, doesn't that defeat the purpose of the banana saver in the first place? I just thought it was ridiculous when I saw this at Safeway today. It's something that you would expect to find at Daiso (Japanese dollar store) where they label "nail polish remover" as "nail remover," but definitely not at Safeway.
