What's your favorite invention ever? It's a great question that will give you a lot of insight into someone's worldview. My personal favorite is air conditioning, although other people cite inventions like, you know, sensible things like the wheel or the toothbrush or the internet as the best inventions ever. However, we're all wrong, because the best inventions are still being created today!

The folks in this meme list have created some truly special products here, like a vest that can carry dozens of grill ingredients, or a fire log that is themed after Kentucky Fried Chicken. Who knows where these creative souls find their inspiration…but they're creating stuff that is so weird it belongs in another parallel timeline altogether.

Next, click here to check out this batch of sleepy-time memes.
