Posted on November 4, 2009 by innovationgonewrong

Hello IGWers,
This one is pretty funny. You definitely should take your drunkeness or future drunkness into account before looking for a costume. It appears that one man from Ohio took it a bit too far on Halloween. He dressed up like a Breathalizer. However, he got into a car and drove over the limit. He [...]

Italian Hotel Offers 1 cent room

Posted on August 16, 2009 by innovationgonewrong

Hello IGWers,
Apparently posting hotel rates is a bit too much for one company. Travelers to one destination are doing it a little bit cheaper than everyone else. There was a glitch on a travel site thus offering people hotel rooms for one cent. Maybe it is just my finance, but one cent is pretty cheap [...]

The Downward Gumball Machine

Posted on July 5, 2009 by innovationgonewrong

A while back, I was eating in a Steak and Shake and at the end of the meal I made my way over to the gumball machine. To my chagrin, I put my quarter in the machine and turned it over like I done numerous times before. However, this got me thinking. Do you really [...]

The Fun Size

Posted on July 5, 2009 by innovationgonewrong

Hello IGWers,
Hope your 4th of July weekend was great. One of the questions perplexing me this weekend has got me up in arms. The question is simple. How do you determine the fun size? I mean the fun size evaded the Greeks and the Romans, but it has appeared in today’s society and it is [...]

Running Board Dog

Hello IGWers,
Somedays you just don’t want Fido in the car riding with you. He is going to bark and make a mess of the place. Well, apparently if you lived in the 1950s you used to be able to have Fido have his own little area alongside of you even while not being in the [...]

Hello IGWers,
Now I’m all for expressing creativity, but sometimes it goes a little far in the furniture realm. When I’m watching the boob tube I just want to sit back and relax. Unfortunately for me I have to worry about getting comfortable in the following settings.

The Oil Couch

The Fire Couch
Well hopefully you have [...]

The Insult Bar

Posted on June 22, 2009 by innovationgonewrong

Hello IGWers,
A bar in Spain is trying to come up with a bit of a different twist to try and get people’s minds off the global recession or at least the recession in Spain for them. They are encouraging people to swear and take their frustrations out on the waiters at the bar.
In fact, as [...]

Kentucky Fried Chicken wait Kentucky Fried Beef

Posted on June 19, 2009 by innovationgonewrong

Hello IGWers,
Now I have uncovered a lot of crazy and hair-brained innovations, but this one threw me. KFC announced a new grilled chicken line. This line tastes great, but it may be partially for one ingredient I didn’t suspect coming. That ingredient is beef fat. I really don’t know what to think here. If I [...]

Digiscents

Posted on June 3, 2009 by innovationgonewrong

Hello IGWers,
We go back to the Dotcom bust to find an innovation that did not quite make it. That invention of course was the Digiscent. The purpose of the Digiscent was to waft aromas from your computer right to your nose. Think about all of the videos and pictures you look at in a given [...]
