The STUPIDEST product that I know of is invisible thread. What the hell kind of idea is that?! Invisible thread?! Why the hell would you want to use something invisible to sew with?! Invisible thread is actually invisible. No joke man. I mean, a lot of things are SAID to be invisible, but they aren't. Invisible thread IS. Plus, it's like invisible plastic (plasitc. What the ****?! Plastic thread too?! What is this?) that gets tangled and knotted right in front of your eyes except you can't ****ing see it because it's invisible! I have never been so completely annoyed by anything that wasn't alive before in my life......I'd like to throw something at the idiot who thought that one up. Even worse though, why would anyone be stupid enough to actually buy something so ****ty? My mother can't explain that one....

Theres some product that u use to wipe stuff w/, and then throw away. How is that different from a regular paper towel? Speakin of paper towels, i saw a commercial awhile ago that says "dont u wish bounty had napkins? well now they do!" thats stupid, the only difference between that and the paper towel is the shape.

Also the scotch tape company tried to improve themselves last month by makin a commercial that says "scotch tape disappears! it's great for wrapping gifts cuz its INVISIBLE!" who cares if its invisible or not? tape is tape.

:lol: this thread is funny, but true. And what's with 'New and Improved'? If something is new how can it be improved?

Invisble thread.. as in FISHING line? Meangya, thats what held my prom dress up-- I wouldve been going in something else @ the last minute if it werent for that. Also.. thats.. what they use on TV shows when the person is supposed to look like theyre floating or whatever. It was also used to pull the shelf down so Peter Brady could save that girl in that one episode..

Well I GUESS it's fishing line.....which is sorta funny, b/c the company is trying to make it seem like some great invention or something. Invisible thread! Like woah, here comes the big bucks. And the thing reads, "Invisible thread. For Hand and Machine sewing only"......uhhhhhhhhhhh. Like foot sewing is out? I think the whole "new and improved thing" is funny. That bounty towl/napkin thing is....silly, and what's with lotion in tissues???? Huh? I mean, ur nose gets red and hurts either way. :confused:

Well, the lotion is made to moisten the tissue so it doesnt hurt your nose. A regular cheap brand of dry tissues is like using thin cardboard paper.

I actually like invisible thread. It's stronger than regular thread, and you don't have to worry about which color to use when you sew up those rip jeans of yours. ;)
The only problem is that it's almost impossible to tie a knot with them. Somehow, it finds it's way to untie itself everytime. :confused:

And regarding Bounty napkins... that's truly hilarious. :rotflmao: Heck, them paper towels and napkins are identical! :eek:

Invisible tape is convenient for gift wrapping, IMO. Tape that leave a gray-markings annoy me. ;)

It's a killer: rough and stinks. You'll smell like cardboard the whole day if you were to wipe it on your face. Come to think of it, who would even want to? :crazy:

Because vegetarians consider it "meat" for them. Maybe they dont, I dont know I eat meat. But its better to same a meatless vegetarian hamburger than to say what its really made up of.
