Greatest invention ever made?

[old.Tohtori]

What's your opinion? I was just taking a bottle of soda out of a freezer and thought to myself:

"This thing is really nice."

Then i thought about what might be the greatest invention ever made.

Call out.

The club.

Vibrating vaginas.

Vibrating vaginas.

No need for those. Simply blinfold an old gent with parkinson's disease and place your little chap in his gently vibrating hand.

Now I'm confused, are we talking abou the soda, the bottle, the freezer, or the internet here ? All of them are great inventions.

Also, why put the soda in the freezer ? Are you making iced soda or something, surely it would be easier to put them in an icecube tray.

Now THATS a good invention - the icecube tray.

 

[caLLous]

The Microsoft Office Assistant gets my vote.

Either fire, the wheel or those hats you could put beer on each side and then drink them with a straw.

Was talking about the freezer.

Soda into freezer = cold drink faster.

As you know, they keep the soda in "warm" places, in the shops, a lot of times.

I think fire just exists and somebody discovered it, wasn't exactly an invention by man. Which brings the question in of inventions by who?

God invented fire so i suppose you are right from that aspect.

Beer and Beer holders get my vote.

 

[Stimpy]

It tastes like poo to me and reminds me of a bad experience I had in prison.

edit: Ok maybe not fire then Being serious I would say penicillin maybe.

Depends how you guage the success of an invention. Personally, I vote for the humble motor car, as it is certainly the invention with the biggest effect on our society.

Sure it is How about the printing press? No industrial revolution without that.

 

[Tom]

I don't compare the Industrial Revolution with the car, as the former had a largely negative effect on people's lives, whereas the latter has a positive effect.

 

[ECA]

I vote the toilet as the best invention ever.

 

[Wij]

Bumsex !

 

[Doh_boy]

I vote the toilet as the best invention ever.

Only if you include bog-roll with it.

 

[Jupitus]

Teh Wheel (tm)

 

[jaba]

Think I agree with the toilet, I mean how else would I "splatter ze bowl"?
Other great inventions:
-cheese
-pointy sticks
-pie

Teh Wheel (tm)

Bah if it wasnt for the wheel we'd all have flying cars by now, curse the wheel
(or atleast cool looking hovercrafts )

 

[SAS]

Something boring, but where would we be without it. "Paper"?

He wasn't comparing the Industrial Revolution with the car either.... he said the printing press.

And the fact the car has had a serious negative effects on peoples lifes. Pollution, and then of course deaths.

What about the humble knife? It has lots of uses, and even spawned the age old saying "Best thing since sliced bread" But noone gives credit to the knife that sliced the bread, NO! THEY DON'T BECAUSE THEY'RE ALL UNAPPRECIATIVE TARTS WHO DON'T DESERVE THE LOVELINESS OF THE SHARP BLADED OBJECT OF GOODNESS THAT COMES IN MANY MANY SHAPES AND SIZES AND BEST OF ALL JUST PLAIN ROCKS!!11!1.

**ahem* so..The knife then... :worthy:


(ps, it kills people too, which is nice )

Um, no cars without the Industrial revolution! The Industrial Revolution is the single most important thing to happen to humanity since the start of the neolithic era! While the industrial revolution was not necessarily a nice thing at the time it happened for people involved on a personal level (and continues to affect people's lives), the positives FAR outweigh the negatives; we live longer, eat better, have nice toys to play with, cars to drive, and don't die at 30 and have to go to bed when it gets dark. We wear nice clothes that cost a fraction of our incomes, we can eat food from anywhere in the world, and be anywhere in the world in 24 hours. And without the printing press, the industrial revolution wouldn't have happened. I rest my case.
