Is it just me or does this look like the world's worst ball rack waiting to happen?

Good call. I can't help think there's too much pot in the wrong hands.
And these are engineers? My god!
 
well I say Nick! I'm an engineer and I'm pretty sure I have standard goverment issued *reproductive organs* :Drogar-Smoke(DBG):

but yes, there are a few pot smoking ball less engineers out there.

You know what's funny, when I originally wrote that post I typed "Eccept Anhar, of course" No joke, I don't know why I deleted it. I didn't think I did. :huh:

Raptor, It was a joke, don't worry. I have nothing but respect for engineers. :)
 
Maybe I'm missing something, but they say it travels about 3.7mph. That's basically the speed of a brisk walk for an adult man.

So if I have to stand up on this thing, and I can't go faster than I can walk...er...what's the point exactly?
 
Hahahahaha. That is a good point Mark.

Scooter = walking pace/hurting yourself/looking somewhat ridiculous

Walking = walking pace/safer/looking normal

Hm...
 
You won't need a helmet for your head, but you'll ned it in other parts of your body..... One more invention contributing to the human laziness.....
 
If they were going on the laziness of humans, why not go all the way and make a scooter you can SIT DOWN on????

I do applaud them though, if for no reason than this: Someone finally made something stupider than the Segway.
 
Well, we haven't really seen the seat. Maybe it was engineered by a woman. Heh-heh. Get it?

And... I'm out!
