Craving The Playboy's Touch
He was looking away, his shoulders shaking as he tried his hardest not to laugh.
“These devices are strictly built safely for... for pleasures only, ma’am,” she stammered.
I sighed, setting the wand back on the shelf. What was the point of an electrical toy if it couldn't send someone into a coma. They really needed to invent a more aggressive model.
You mean to tell me no one has invented a version that actually inflicts a little damage? That’s a real missed opportunity.
That's a bummer," I muttered. If I couldn't find something that packed a punch, how was I supposed to teach Allysia a lesson? I turned back to the rep with a dead-serious expression. "Are you sure there’s nothing actually d

The Genius Delta
Daniel confessed.
I was stunned. I don’t even know what to say to that. The kind of things Daniel invented sound horrible. I don’t remember what kind of things he created when I was very young, but knowing what he made for Demonclaw. I see how different we are even more. He makes things that can be used to hurt others. I’ve never invented a weapon in my life. I don’t count the invention that blew up on Kurt and me. That wasn’t its intention.

Shading Black
"Our country would be the greatest in the world. Taxes would be easy to pay, almost free. Gold will be everywhere in the streets of London and transportation would be like taking a ride in your dream."
Abigail felt sad, knowing she had allowed him to get drunk on purpose. Of course there were a few great things about England that a citizen could feel proud to say. Charles Babbage proposed the idea for a Difference Engine in 1822, William Sturgeon opened a new ground with his invention of the Electromagnet in 1825 and if her grandfather was still alive, he would definitely say they were enjoying a remarkable period after the Industrial Revolution that saw new manufacturing processes created

A Trillionaire in University
It's like having a pocket-sized tutor who never gets tired, never rolls their eyes at your questions, and never accidentally falls asleep during a study session (unlike some humans we know).
With bubbling excitement, I eagerly submitted my app for consideration. As I glanced through the other submissions, I couldn't help but shake my head at some of the ridiculous inventions people had come up with. I mean, who in their right mind would think that a portable pillow hat or a banana-shaped phone holder would revolutionize the world? Some were downright bizarre—like a "selfie toaster" or a "shoe umbrella." It was like a comedy show, but unfortunately, it was real life.
But amidst the sea of qui

C.H.A.O.S. The Runaway Prince
Francis’s eyebrows creased as he busied himself working with his laptop. After the night of terror, he had been working non-stop to submit reports and worse, CHAOS I was activated. It was a legendary device that caused a great deal of controversy six years ago.
Its logarithm was challenging to understand as it was one of the inventions of the great Alexandrei, and these inventions couldn’t be solved in one snap. Usually, it would take an absolute genius and someone hard working to crack his logarithm.

The Bad Boy's Secret Spills
Some things are made, invented not to be understood!
Simple as that! Just like "some words can be lost behind words you could never find... Same as inventions, it can be an oral theoretical invention or practical invention but some things are made to not to be understood at all, for so long as you can use it without any complications and misinterprets full of errors and side effects!
Yes! I said it! You Probably didn't understand my point, but you can go through it twice or thrice till you pin it in your skull, you Probably won't even figure it out at all, 😀 but like i said, some things aren't meant to be understood.

Billionaire's Regret: His Ex-Wife Returns From The Dead
“Let’s just say we might end up dead if we don’t get to escape here. So what’s the need to hoard secrets.”
“I don’t know about you, but I’m leaving here with my wife... alive.”
“Look, at the time when my mom started her weaponry newly, she also made this new invention that she desperately needed to be known for. That’s when one of our workers betrayed us and sold a few to your grandmother for a huge price. My mother sacked the worker, but then stole the deal for herself. She was young and desperate and didn’t care what your grandmother used the invention for. All she wanted was the money and, with time, fame. As the years went by, my mother soon realized that her invention was still a risk t

FATED TO A TYRANT
Despite their own abilities to tinker and create something of their own—some better than what magical creatures had—they continued to hunt us down, using our own parts and artefacts for their own experiments and gains.
I had seen enough elf heads and wolf heads preserved and hung on walls in a number of human houses like some sort of sick trophies.
So if I was barbaric for my crusade against them, I was simply paying them back in equal amounts.
“So,” Gillian said slowly, but her voice still rang with poorly veiled excitement. “Inventions… Like… Like our fridge in the kitchen? You like them?”
I hummed in agreement, even though the way the conversation was going was making me seem like an igno

Terrifying
Some students were disappointed, while others were excited and even wished the class would end without a lesson.
Hayle excitedly came to the front of the class.
"Attention, please!"
Everyone was suddenly silent and focused on Hayle.
"So, I have something unique that I want to show you." Hayle took out a cassette tape, "I have this!"
The students laughed and looked strangely at Hayle, except for one person. Tony. The nerdy student who rarely spoke. He looked at the cassette in Hayle's hand with a shocking face.
"This cassette has a song called "Terrifying" which was released in 1982. Well, it sounds weird. Let's play it!"

Frequently Asked Questions
One of my absolute favorites from '99 More Unuseless Japanese Inventions' has to be the 'Noodle Hair Guard.' It's this hilarious little plastic shield you wear on your head while eating ramen to keep your hair from dipping into the broth. I mean, it's utterly ridiculous, but also kind of genius? It captures that quintessential Japanese mix of practicality and whimsy. Another standout is the 'Butter Grater'—because who hasn’t struggled with rock-hard butter straight from the fridge? This tiny grater lets you sprinkle soft, flakes of butter onto toast like cheesy snow. It’s the kind of invention that makes you wonder why nobody thought of it sooner.
The 'Eye Drop Funnel' also cracks me up. It’s a tiny funnel you place over your eye to ensure eye drops actually land where they’re supposed to. As someone who’s missed their eyeball more times than I can count, I unironically want one. The book is full of these gem-like ideas that straddle the line between useless and life-changing. The 'Umbrella Tie'—a tie with a built-in mini umbrella—is peak 'only in Japan' energy. It’s hard to pick a 'best' invention because they’re all charming in their own way, but these are the ones that live rent-free in my brain.
