Laughing Without Liquor: 11 Hilarious Inventions to Tickle Your Sober Fancy

January 29, 2024

Hey there, Laugh-a-lot Sober Loyalists! Your favorite teetotaler and tickle-master from the Laughing without Liquor Podcast is back, mixing up a concoction of giggles with a sprinkle of innovation, if you can call it that. 🛠️ This week, we’re diving into the quirky world of “11 Funny Inventions” that’ll have you rolling your eyes with laughter instead of reaching for the bottle. Pop open a can of fizzy water, and let’s get inventing!

The Nap Sack

A hat with a drop-down privacy screen for snoozing on the go. It’s like a personal blackout curtain for your face because who doesn’t want to look like a human tent?

The Pet Rock

The classic gag gift that keeps on giving. Sure, it doesn’t do much, but hey, at least it’s low maintenance and it doesn’t judge you.

The USB Pet Rock

A modern twist on an old favorite. It’s a pet rock, but with a USB! Plugs into your computer and does… absolutely nothing. Truly a marvel of pointless technology.

The Sock Sandal

A sandal that looks like you’re wearing socks. For those days when you want to scream “fashion rebel” without saying a word. Or if you’re more athletic, this may work for you, and it was entertaining for me to watch!

The Square Watermelon

Grown in a box to shape it into a cube for easier stacking. Because round watermelons are just too mainstream, right? And when you need to grab a gift that special person who has everything, you can gift them their very own square!

The Spaghetti Fork

A fork with a built-in spinning mechanism. Twirling pasta has never been easier, or more likely to fling sauce on your partner.

The Goldfish Walker

A plastic bubble on wheels for your fish to enjoy the great outdoors. Because your finned friend needs a change of scenery too.

The Banana Slicer

A device that slices your banana into even pieces. Because apparently using a knife was just too complicated. Everyone needs one, right?!

And if you want to impress someone with bananas you could do this:

The 360 Toothbrush

A toothbrush that cleans all your teeth at once. For when you’re in a rush and must brush in record time – or just want to chew on something futuristic.

This is weird, I’m not sure about this one!

The Remote Wrangler

A Velcro strap that attaches your remote controls to your arm. Never lose them in the couch again… unless you also lose your arm. Someone actually spent time on this and people buy them… DIY is always an option.

And there you have it, friends! What’s your favorite?  Eleven oddly bizarre inventions that prove creativity knows no bounds – especially when you’re sipping on sobriety. Have you invented something you want to shout about? Share it with us! 

Now, for a parting joke:

Why did the sober podcaster invent a solar-powered flashlight? Because she wanted to keep her bright ideas charged day and night! 😂

Remember, whether you’re inventing the next laughter-inducing gadget or just enjoying the simple joys of life, you don’t need a drop of alcohol to spark that inventive spirit.
