Make a gadget that makes something easier, and you have a chance at selling lots of those gadgets. The microwave oven is rather practical example. The electric can opener has its place, though it does amuse me perhaps more than it should.

But the ultimate in laziness, so far, seems to me to be the motorized lollipop. It's so simple. It's also so silly that it was probably rejected my many people as not being something that would sell. Does anybody need a motorized lollipop? But silly and lazy does sell. Someone, somewhere, is making money (or at least hoping to) from that.

Now stop thinking of it as just a silly lollipop for the astonishingly lazy. It's a small, inexpensive, and very available electric motor. The motor comes with a battery, too. A lollipop is also thrown in. I wonder what else a person could do with a lollipop motor. Maybe not much, but even something just as silly as spinning the lollipop would be better than just throwing the motor away. I almost want to go buy a motorized lollipop or three now.
