### February 15 Where do I even start?! On February 15, the world was blessed (or cursed?) with some truly ridiculous inventions that quite honestly had me scratching my head. For starters, somebody decided to invent a toaster shaped like a pig. And why? Just why? Not only is it not very useful in terms of actually toasting bread, but it takes up way too much room in the kitchen and it's just a silly concept. Then somebody else thought it would be a good idea to create a cell phone case made out of mirrors so you always have a mirror handy, except what you don't realize is that the reflection is so distorted because the phone isn't a flat surface that you can't really use it for anything. But perhaps the most absurd invention to come out of February 15 was a remote-controlled rubber duck - yes, you read that right - a rubber duck that you can control from your phone. Who would ever need that? What is the point? These inventions prove that there really is no limit to mankind's creativity - or rather lack thereof. I, for one, am totally baffled. Who came up with these ideas, and why?
