Swagga T and Brie work with Zimbabwe’s The Herald. Over the weekend, they described what they believe are the most ridiculous innovations.
Selfie Stick
Of course it is effective and serves the intended purpose of taking selfies, group pictures and whatever but let’s face it – they are not cool.
I have seen people use selfie sticks and I am trying to get used to it but until then my verdict is it is ridiculous and desperate (for attention on whatever platform that picture is going).
Smart watches
Ok, I know I will get mixed reactions on this but hear it from someone who has first-hand experience – the gadget is ridiculous sometimes.
Just like the selfie stick, I’m still trying to get its true purpose after using it for months – true story.
Am I a spy? So why am I supposed to put my wrist close to my mouth and speak on it to answer calls? Again, ridiculous. After all, it does not work in the absence of a phone so if you decide to use the James Bond watches, then you probably need a code less earpiece and a smart phone.
That is too much clutter.
Electric tooth brush
I don’t know about y’all but I maintain my stance on this, unless you are paralysed, these are totally absurd.
Again, my experience over the years has led me to this conclusion.
Besides the buzzing sensation, there is nothing else that I found amusing about this gadget.
If you brush your teeth right with an ordinary toothbrush then you are likely going to do a better job than using the fancy tooth brush.
Curved TV
Smart television sets are the way to go but remind me again why we need them in the home?
Television sets have evolved for the past years – they got bigger, slimmer, sharper, clearer and more real in the 21st century.
But surely the smart guys have run out of ideas, curving?
I am not impressed.
