Dodgy inventions

[Dmacca]

Anyone got any suggestions on things they would like to uninvent.

Mine is the speed camera, id like to reinvent them to catch cyclist who constanly drive through red lights.  :tic01:

The story of the speed camera (the Gatso to be specific) is quite a funny one as it was actually invented by a dutch rally driver to help him get faster times.  So it's a bit ironic that his invention is now used to catch people who go too fast.

I wish someone would un-invent this bloody internet thing. I'd get a lot more done if I didn't waste my day idly surfing rubbish like this

The call centre, life used to be so much easier when you could simply ring up your local bank, railway station or insurance branch office.

I could agree with that but, on the other hand, it wasn't for this I wouldn't have met loads of folk who use this board.... :004:

That phone they had on Tomorrow's World, the one for deaf people that flashed a light instead of ringing, then Rowan Atkinson picked it up.

What, you mean Not the Nine O'Clock News wasn't the same as Tomorrow's World?
