    I would say the leaf blower. Gets the Saturday morning yard work done in half the time. Plus the neighbors come outside and watch in awe. :)

    Vasectomy. It's not nearly as horrifying as everyone makes it out to be and as long as you're faithful it's cheaper than the pill.

    internet + smartphones, what did I even do before?

    edit, did't answer why...
    Because I'm never bored. I think my phone is my favourite possession

    It’s actually the invention of electricity, the combustion engine, and the airplane. Those 3 things changed the world.

    I was thinking more along the lines of: breaded fish sticks

    Greatest invention ever? That's a really big subject. Since internet could not have happened without all of and including everything that happened in the last 300 years, I'm not even going to say that the steam engine at the beginning of the industrial revolution was greatest ever.

    Probably accurate to say that the greatest invention ever was agriculture.
