### April 8 April 8th is a day of infamy. It was on that fateful day that someone thought it would be a great idea to invent the toaster oven. A device destined to take up precious counter space and leave bread charred beyond recognition. Then, in what must have been an act of sheer lunacy, the electric mop was born. Making people want to break out their feather dusters and run for the hills. Not to be outdone, that same day also saw the creation of the self-cleaning litter box. A contraption designed to take away the stench of cats and replace it with the noxious scent of burning dust and chemicals. Oh, and let's not forget about the remote control selfie stick! A wretched device that allows the user to extend the stick anywhere from 12-48 inches and capture a photo of themselves with a single press of a button. April 8th shall forever live in infamy as the day so many useless inventions came to life.
