21. Bacon.

Yes. Pork fat rules!!

You're getting older and slower.

I was mocking you for being old and slow - Thoth had already listed the internet a few posts above yours.

It was the cannabis afterwards. I couldn't remember anything else before the cannabis.

281. Evolving sentience before chimpanzees and gorillas and thereby guaranteeing our supreme overlordship of the planet.

302. Building thousands of religious monuments and shrines to non-existant deities and supreme beings.

679. Creating one of the greatest mass extinctions in Earth history since the K–T extinction event 65 million years ago.

889. The Snuggie

The Snuggie?

Does cannabis count as man made? I'm not an expert on the topic.

The snuggie:

I'm pretty sure the idea of smoking cannabis is man made. Dolphins are all like "ooh look at us we're friggin dolphins" or whatever but you don't see them smoking weed so they can **** right off.

How are they supposed to smoke weed when they don't have opposable thumb or fingers for that matter and live in the ocean?

They probably get high of sea shrooms or something.

That woman has a second head growing between her breasts. Is she a Martian?

Music
Literature
Stockings and suspenders
Ridiculously fast cars (you know, the kind that are capable of doing eight times the speed limit)

[notyoueither]

Some of our suggestions are overly broad, I feel.

Although I guess we can accept music and writing in general.

What do they call the type of vehicle used in Formula One and Indy Racing? Open wheel racers?

Contraception/prophylaxis

NYE, you need to post a to-date master list. Hard to keep track as we move to multiple pages.

[Theben]

Fire
Wheels
pyrotechnics

[duke o' york]

Isn't the latter a combination of the former? Or am I just thinking of Catherine Wheels?

Either way, I think fireworks are a stupid waste of resources, and gunpowder is one of the worst possible human creations. Hell, archery is a more entertaining Olympic sport than skeet shooting, so what's the point? Well, apart from the foundation of your country?
