We're convinced that people brainstorm new inventions while drinking a lot, and we still can't believe that their poorly conceived ideas get made into real products. There's no way a sober mind came up with a pillow that's made to be worn as a wig, a disco ball-carrying hat, or stickers to place on your eyelids so you always look awake. There are some hilariously awful inventions out there, which is why we decided to round up 20 More Inventions that Are Completely Pointless.

Disco Ball Hat

Disco Ball Hat

Brand: Urban Trend

The Disco Ball Hat is social suicide. We could only see this cap being the rage after a few shots of Jagermeister, but sober reasoning would reveal that it's just plain silly.

The Storm Jacket

The Storm Jacket

Brand: Luis Avia Roma

These jackets zip all the way over your head and include big, black lenses so you can still see. Although these jackets are supposed to be avant-garde attire, they really make people look like gigantic flies.

Neck Magic Air Cushion

Neck Magic Air Cushion

Brand: AsSeenonTvGuys

This product was made to rid people of neck pain and tight muscles by massaging the neck with an air pump. There's no way that this actually works, and it looks completely ridiculous. We have to give it to the model; she really had to use her acting skills to sell this product.

USB Toast Handwarmers

USB Toast Handwarmers

Brand: ThinkGeek

If your hands catch an unexpected chill as you type on a keyboard, have no fear! USB Toast Handwarmers are here to help. You simply plug these gloves into your laptop USB port, and they warm up. Unfortunately you will get plenty of strange looks if you whip these out in public.

BodySuit

BodySuit

Brand: Andrea Crews

Sometimes regular sweaters don't make the cut. If you truly want to stay warm, you may need to wear this creepy BodySweater. You will look like a sea monster, however.

The Candwich

The Candwich

Brand: MarkOneFoods

The Candwich bills itself as a perfectly healthy lunch for kids on the go. Yes, they actually say this is healthy. Also, the Candwich comes in three flavors: peanut butter and strawberry jam, peanut butter and grape jam, and...BBQ chicken?

Bowl Hearing Aids

Bowl Hearing Aids

Brand: Unknown

You can't hear very well? There's only one solution: wear bowls on your ears. Not only will you bring more attention to your hearing problem, you get the added benefit of being mocked by all your friends. Yes, hearing aids are much more discreet and probably more effective, but why miss the chance to wear bowls on your head?

Eyestickers

Eyestickers

Brand: Eyestickers

The point of wearing Eyestickers is to look like you are awake when you're sound asleep. They may be tempting to some, but nobody is going to fall for these false eyeballs. Do you expect people to believe that you don't blink (not to mention that you have an alien stare)?

Sudoku Toilet Roll

Sudoku Toilet Roll

Brand: Oob

Have you ever wanted to play some Sudoku while you're doing number two? This Shitdoku toilet paper lets you continue playing even when you are on the toilet. Just grab a pen and keep your mind busy while you are trying to pass that enchilada.

Bikini Pants

Bikini Pants

Brand: Sanna's

There's something sexy and incredibly scary about these. Sure you see more skin, but at what cost? These jeans may have been cool '90s. Unfortunately it's a little too late for this nightmare.

Hug Pillow

Hug Pillow

Brand: Unknown

Ladies, if you are feeling lonely, you can buy this pillow in the shape of a man's arm. Sure, it's not the real thing, but it definitely doesn't snore. This pillow is pretty much the lowest of the low.

Pillow Wig

Pillow Wig

Brand: Unknown

The Pillow Wig allows you to fall asleep anywhere you desire. Want to catch some Zs while you're walking down the street? Go for it. The only time the Pillow Wig would be acceptable is on a plane, and that's still a maybe. This is definitely a fashion fail.

Hipster Cap

Hipster Cap

Brand: Fancy

Why? Just, why? The Hipster Cap is designed to keep the tip of your ears warm. It doesn't keep the whole ear warm, just the tip. This has to be the silliest product in the world. It would probably be popular on Reddit, though.

EZCracker

EZCracker

Brand: Emson

The EZCracker is meant to help you crack eggs without getting shell bits in your batter. Sounds great, but it's difficult to sell a product that people really don't need. Why spend $15 on a device that does something you can do with bare hands?

Age-ru Face Maker

Age-ru Face Maker

Brand: Japan Trend Shop

The idea behind this mask is to create a "face sauna." Wear it for ten minutes each day, and you will look young again. Really? The Age-ru Face Maker is only good for making you look like a bank robber or a Lady Gaga wannabe.

Shower Mic Sponge

Shower Mic Sponge

Brand: Perpetual Kid

The Shower Mic Sponge allows you to feel like you are on stage like a rock star while in the comfort of your own shower. Aside from the sponge's obvious uselessness, it looks like the rough type you would use on a counter. Cleaning yourself with it would not be a pleasurable experience.

Cat Duster Slippers

Cat Duster Slippers

Brand: Unknown

If your cat does something incredibly naughty, you can punish the feline with these cat slippers. Your floors will be dust-free, and your cat hate you. If your cat is more of the "curl up on the couch" type, you're out of luck.

Black Handset

Black Handset

Brand: GLD

Everyone loves vintage, but this device takes it too far. This phone attachment gives you the old school telephone feel, even though your cellphone is already capable of working on its own.

Face Slimmer Exercise Mouthpiece

Face Slimmer Exercise Mouthpiece

Brand: Japan Trend Shop

This device is supposed to give women a face-lift without going under the knife. Yes, that may sound appealing to some, but does anyone actually believe miming oral sex three minutes out of the day will help you look younger?

Bike Lane Light

Bike Lane Light

Brand: Light Lane

The Bike Lane Light is designed to make sure you stay safe while riding a bike. It lights up a bike lane for you. Sounds great right? While you ride your bike on poorly lit roads like an idiot, you can have a few laser pointers behind you. They'll mainly guide ambulances to your body.
