World’s most useless “invention”: The standard bed sheet Laptop Burka
Love computing outside in all the gloriousness that is sweet mother nature but have a problem with Mr. Sun creating glare, squinting, and headaches? You’re apparently not alone. Thank god the makers of the “Laptop Burka” came along. Featuring a name that may anger some and a design that is anything except original or innovative, the makers of said accessory take you for a complete idiot. A quick look at the image above will come across to most as a bed sheet on top of some moron’s head. But in fact it is a…..uhh…..ya it’s a damn sheet on someone’s head. You can’t fool us Laptop Burka maker….
The most comical yet simultaneously infuriating feature of the LB is the price tag: $36. You read that right and yes the decimal point is in the right spot. This company is charging $36 for a bed sheet made to block out glare and other natural annoyances that may hinder your outdoor computing. If you’ve really got that much of a problem with glare and or mother nature, take your happy ass back inside the house.
One honorable mention from the feature list includes:
- lettoing you work and play on your laptop without the glare of sunlight or stares from uninvited strangers.
I’m pretty sure privacy screens/films were invented for this sole reason. They’re much smaller and won’t make you look like a mental patient when used in public (bonus). You’re best bet is to avoid this at all costs. If threatened with death….it’s not really a hard choice. Move along.
