Bob's Bad Ideas

Welcome to Our Worst Engineer, where the only thing we take pride in is making things worse.

Bob's Bad Ideas is a collection of the most hare-brained, ill-conceived, and downright terrible ideas you've ever heard. And if you haven't heard them, well, that's just because they're not very good.

Inventions | Mistakes

Some of our notable failures

Here are a few of Bob's most infamous creations:

• The Automatic Sock-Steaming Toaster 3000: A toaster that also steams your socks, because why not?
• The Disintegrating Dehumidifier: It dehumidifies, then disintegrates, and finally reassembles itself, only to repeat the process.
• The Singing Refrigerator: It not only keeps your food cold, but also sings an endless loop of elevator music.

Some of our notable mistakes

Here are a few of Bob's most notable mistakes:

• Spilling an entire vat of paint on the factory floor, twice.
• Accidentally installing a toilet in the server room, because why not?
• Deciding that "just a little more" was a good idea, during the 3am quality control check.

Some of our notable... um, "experiments"

Here are a few of Bob's most questionable "experiments" (he claims they were "art projects" or "research, I swear):

• Trying to build a functioning roller coaster in the office.
• Cooking ramen noodles in the 3D printer.
• Using the company credit card to buy a timeshare in a timeshare resort in Boca Raton.
