Did you know there's a pickle eyeshadow palette? Or a portable toilet seat that attaches to your car tire? Neither did we. But regardless of their questionable viability, these items exist. And you can find them on the subreddit r/OfCourseThatsAthing.
Named after pretty much the only reaction people have to its content, the sub has grown to a 739K member community, and even though we at Bored Panda have already covered it before, these folks keep unearthing the most creative and weirdest products, so we have to do it again!

Scrolling through the images, it's hard to imagine someone greenlighting these ideas. David Pereira, the Head of Product Management at Virtual Identity, thinks it often happens when development gets too 'dry.'
"Products are built for people. Yet, many people lead product innovation through numbers, which means people become numbers [and] behaviors become data points," Pereira wrote. "Therefore, misunderstanding of the audience is inevitable because of too many false assumptions. Product teams that don't challenge the data become blind and build useless products."

I hope so, because we need that extra push to go over the cliff.

Awesome! Just put this in my Amazon cart for my brother's bday this month! Not only does he SHRED the electric guitar (OUR SF GIANTS invited HIM to play the National Anthem on Father's Day 2014, You Tube Daniel Burns National Anthem!) At AT&T Park, he also can kill most any song on the drums and bass as well. Thanks for this idea!

During the 40 years I lived in San Francisco, I always looked for older apartments in marginal neighborhoods—better rent, clawfoot tubs (mandatory), and often some amazing built-in things. My last place not only the widest clawfoot tub I’ve ever encountered, the landlord had installed a key hook panel below the cubby that had the phone used to screen your visitors without having to leave your apartment.

I really like this...I think I'm gonna try to make something similar.

If your dad is a wanna be rockstar that never got in a band because he never could play the electric guitar, like mine, this would be an awesome gift.

I saw this at about US$ 30 in my country, so price may vary, if someone is interested.

My son got this for my husband one Christmas. We love it. It hung right above our floor amp in our music room.

The product manager pointed out that there's nothing wrong with being data-driven, it's just that teams need to understand when to apply numbers and when to stay away from them.
"Data will bring us insight from the past, showing details about customer behavior... However, we should not overlook the power of observation," Pereira said. "Once we observe real people using real products, insights will come to us [naturally], and [we'll be able to] understand how people use the [said] product [way better]."

Pereira is a big fan of prototyping. "I prefer accepting that [I] don't know enough; at best, [I] have a set of assumptions, which need validation as fast as possible. That's my approach for [all] ideas."
In his opinion, the Lean Startup method created by American entrepreneur Eric Ries is an excellent way of building products that solve real problems.
However, I guess it's either we have less useless stuff or more content on r/OfCourseThatsAthing. How can we possibly make this choice?!

Not stupid at all! I've been many times to a wine festival thats held outside, where you taste 80 samples at 12 stations spread around entire village. They give you similar wine glass holders so you can walk freely enjoying the day. The holder is ussualy woven rattan or fabric.

People I am not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but I was wondering and afraid that it might be a widespread problem.

Probably better to make your own post about it. Not too many people will see it here. Actually, I think there actually was a BP post about that a while ago, though maybe this is a different story.
