    Only a few days ago I passed a bloke in Manchester selling "bubble guns" from a stall in the street. Big plastic gun, and when you pulled the trigger and stream of pretty bubbles came out. I spent ages thinking how brain dead I would need to be in order to buy one...and all things I would rather have than a Bubble Gun, namely:

    Gum disease,
    Piles
    Someone break into my house, steal all of my belongings and crap on my carpet.

    Eek! Someone's stolen my signature! :eek:

    Ringtones of chart songs. Or any ringtone you have to pay for.
    Since when do you sit and listen to your phone ring and enjoy the sound of it? What's wrong with the radio?

    And a strong second for pre-prepared foods like ready-mashed potato, ready sliced melon, and pre-grated cheese.

    My friend told me she saw a pair of small silver disks in an American shop labelled "Him" and "Her."- apparently for people to wear in their bellybuttons whilst sunbathing (presumably in case people get confused about which is which).

    I was going to put this, until I realised that a lot of older people use these proiducts when they have difficulties using thier hands and so forth. So they do have some merits :o

    Bah Humbug. Whats wrong with the little tub of bubbly stiff and the little plastic wand that WE had to put up when we were kids? My mum always used to refill mine with fairly washing up liquid when it ran out but it was never quite the same...
