What is the most useless modern age technology?

Question

Ok, there going to be lot of answers for this one, so if you see the one you were going to say, just vote for it.
My own ideas:
1. IM: we've come almost a decade of commucation technology since the first phone and now we can send WRITTEN messages to people across the room. Progress!
2. Humanoid robots: sure they're impressive and a scientific breaktrough, but do they actually DO anything worth? We spend a lot of funding and thinking just for a toy, methinks.

Answer 1

1. Automatic toilets. Seriously, can't we just turn a LITTLE, and push the handle?

2. Leaf Blowers. They move leaves to another spot, make too much noise, and the wind ends up blowing them back to where they were.

3. The Hydrogen Bomb - Woohoo, we made a weapon that can blow up the earth! Let's use it on Cu..... Hey.. Wait a minute...

4. Talking cars. "The door is ajar. The door is ajar. The door is ajar. The door is ajar. The door is ajar. The door is ajar.. The door is...."

5. Xterra Sunroof. It's a sunroof, with blinds screwed over it, so that no light can get in..?

Answer 2

The flashlights in the world that don't work when you need them.
Half the holiday or birthday presents you got in your life.
All the exercise machines you bought that you only used once.

The flashing "traffic backup" warning signs when there's no exit anyways

The "take a number" machines for service in stores when they don't use them anyways.

Half the enter and exit doors on public buildings and businesses that you can't use because they never unlock them.

Unreliable computers that use up half your time just maintaining them.

All the old electronics you bought that you don't know what to do with (working or not).

Answer 3

The Badazzler.

Answer 4

Anything to do with a cell phone. People have become so rude since they have been available.

Answer 5

Electric can opener.

Come on, how hard is it to open a can by hand....
