Our innermost desire to flaunt affluence makes us buy things that we don’t use for the purpose the things were bought for, but they come in handy someway or the other eventually.
Dining Table
This becomes a shelf/rack/surface for keys, fruits, newspapers and any other item that you carry in your hand while entering your house or room that you would like to quickly get rid of.
Exercise Cycle and Treadmill
This is where the towel, jeans, shirts are hung when you are too lazy to hang them where they are supposed to be.
Yellow Pages
Ultimately used as a paper weight or in some cases, if they are fat enough, they could even make a little stool for the kids.
Extended Warranty
No one ever finds the need to call the company back to return a TV or Refrigerator because it stopped working in the middle of the night.
Gym membership
Arguably, this is one of the most common reasons for making New Year resolutions.
Self-Help Books, Travel guides, Cook Books
Who reads them?
Swiss Knife
Sole purpose: show people that you bought it, and keep it in a safe place; you may need it in case you are stuck in the middle of a rain forest, on your next adventure expedition.
Tea Coasters
Do you even remember where you last saw them in your house?
Wine Glasses
This is used once in a blue moon. By blue moon I mean decade.
Anything Water-proof
You never went deep sea diving because your watch is water proof, did you?
Hahahahahaaa xD
ReplyDeleteJust made me realize I haven't seen my yellow pages in like forever!
Tea coasters too o_o
Nobody drinks at my place,so no glasses.
But my brother did go swimming with his watch coz it is water proof :|
xo
My sister has collected yellow pages and kept it in the store room, one over another. So, if she has to reach the loft (which isnt too high) she simply stands on them and removes whatever she wants.
ReplyDeleteand yes, there was a time when waterproof watches were a thing. I'm sure he probably uses it to time himself, which is really nice :)
I remember actually discussing whose watch was more water resistant as a kid. I had this Casio (or G-shock, no sure) that claimed it could be used up to 200m under water and it was the talk of my class for a while. Bonus: I can't swim. Never have, never will.
ReplyDeleteHahaha this so true!
