I've heard of #10 the cat duster slippers, and #18, the popcorn sorter#12 the twirling spaghetti fork looks awesome!I resent the demeaning comment on #15, "Um, this means that there are other marshmallow launching competitors out there," as I have one: a marshmallow/peanut crossbow! It's awesome! I shoot people with acorns at Renaissance Faire.#19, the umbrella rain tube, may be geeky, but I think it's brilliant if you have to spend a lot of your day outside when it's raining!I fully agree that #23, New Coke, was a HUGE disaster! It was liked better in blind taste tests, so you can't quite blame the Coca-Cola company. It also allowed the company to switch from cane sugar to high-fructose corn syrup.#24, the baby cage, is DANGEROUS! Why in the world would ANYONE even THINK something like that is okay?!#31, cup bras - They work by sticking to the breasts and pulling up instead of pushing up. That's what women wear with the formal gowns that are made nowadays! You can't wear a bra with those things, and you certainly can't go bra-less, so strapless, backless cup bras are the next best thing! If you get the right ones, they work great!
