Orpheus Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Porno by far is the greatest invention by man. Followed by the internet. Followed by Nintendo. Common adolescent teenager :roll: Irony is a beautiful thing. If it weren't a product of language, I'd vote that it was itself the greatest (or at least most beautiful) invention. That, in essence, is how I was going to respond, only you beat me to it. The best invention overall would be the wheel, think about it for a moment, imagine cars using rocks to roll around on, hell, to an extent computers wouldn't even be possible. I was going to eat hot dogs for dinner tonight. I think I will settle for cereal. OPEN WIDE HERE COMES THE HELICOPTER. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

issy2 Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Toilet paper. Just imagine your life without it :ohnoes: The Romans managed pretty well.... : Well at least they had flushing toilets I suppose. The third millennium B.C. was the "Age of Cleanliness." Toilets and sewers were invented in several parts of the world, and Mohenjo-Daro circa 2800 B.C. had some of the most advanced, with lavatories built into the outer walls of houses. These were "Western-style" toilets made from bricks with wooden seats on top. They had vertical chutes, through which waste fell into street drains or cesspits.

Giordano Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 I believe the flushing toilet was invented in 1513 by Thomas Crapper.

sonerohi Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Me. /thread. Seriously though, I would have to say the greatest invention was footwear and fire. With footwear, we could walk farther, over more diverse terrain, and not have to worry about our feet. It allowed us to travel farther to gather up more resources and those resources eventually turned into something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyboo2 Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Electricity. So many things are run on electricity it's crazy. Production lines, houses, hospitals, computers, etc. Every time the power goes out where I live, I get really bored. Most of todays technology is run on electricity and without it we'd be screwed. I know whnat you mean; but we didn't invent electricity- we discovered it. Yeah...Some people just go out of their way to ruin other peoples fun.Sounds like Jagex to me...

Derek_Zoolander Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 I believe the flushing toilet was invented in 1513 by Thomas Crapper. Thus, the crapper. :P Indeed. He invented it for the British queen I think. Romans had toilets that let you sit on top then water collected from a rain gutter would be washed through the sewer and through a tunnel to the river. I remember when I read about Mohenjo-Daro in school, best day in that class ever. That was interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when I read about Mohenjo-Daro in school, best day in that class ever. That was interesting. Thomas P. Crapper (baptised 28 September 1836 - 27 January 1910) was a plumber who founded Thomas Crapper & Co. Ltd. in London. Despite the urban legend, Crapper did not invent the flush toilet (the myth assisted by his surname). However, Crapper did much to increase its popularity and came up with some related inventions. He was noted for the quality of his products and received several Royal Warrants. The manhole covers with Crapper's company's name on them in Westminster Abbey are now a minor tourist attraction. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flush_toil ... n_timeline La lune ne garde aucune rancune.

Derek_Zoolander Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Wow, I was 90% sure that he invented it. Thought I heard that somewhere. Oh well, thanks for correcting me :P. EDIT: Found what probably confused me: 1596: Sir John Harington is said to have invented 'The Ajax', a forerunner to the modern flush toilet, for Elizabeth I of England, who wouldn't use the contraption because it made too much noise. His design was ridiculed in England, but was adopted in France under the name Angrez. The design had a flush valve to let water out of the tank, and a wash-down design to empty the bowl.
