It's sad that life has come down to that for some. It isn't enough that their life evolve around the computer/laptop, but they needed everything that is not a hands-reach away right next to their computer. I can see the use for some of the little things, but if real, a noodle strainer? Some of these things are just funny, but great nonetheleast.
