A way to keep the hair back from your food and food from splashing in your hair? Looks like a cut up paper plate-but foam rubber! Did you want us to try to name it??

To keep dogs from scratching themselves too much?

It is a noodle in the hair rejection reflector……..

Hey..no going to YouTube…that’s cheating!!! ( : …Did they guess it already, Matt??

I can’t help it, I am addicted to youtube, so if I failed this contest I will just have to deal with it:{

It’s a seat cover for public washrooms, she’s just using it wrong.

It is part of Bozo the clowns costume but she can’t pull it passed her little fat cheeks…….

Um..lady in the lunchroom at EN headquarters playing around with the leftovers of the “Upsy Daisy” project?

Sherri, you are correct that is Sue Ling she works for EN….She is the project tester for all inventions that are created by the team…..When this picture was taken she was trying the latest development called antacid reflux noodle reduction soup and the face mat was suppose to be used to reduce occurring headaches, however the only outcome was that the soup made her sick and the picture has hit the Internet and gave ever recurring headaches…….

Well Mark i think its a way for the steam from the soup to be directed to her face for improved completion also so that she will inhale the steam more thoroughly creating a more pleasurable eating experience.

7. Her impression of a Venus Flytrap
8. She cut herself shaving
9. a personal toilet seat cover carrier
10. A way to hid pimples

Roger you gave me some clarity, it must be a date repellent so I am taking mine off immediately, however that only explains the last three years:{

Its a toilet puke pillow…..For the ones that cant hold ther booze and pass out with ther face in the toilet bowl…

It’s for the traveling dieter. To avoid temptation when going through the buffet just place it on the plate and fill up…but only in the open area once.

It is the hangover face plate for the alcoholic who is hungover all to often……As long as their face always seems to be in a public toilet then this is a must have to keep your face from making direct contact with a dirty toilet. Just because you are a drunk and are use to falling into the gutter all the time, there is no excuse to let your face come into direct contact with a germ infested toilet!

Oh… geez that’s dumb.
Add a lobster bib and you’ve really got a cool look.
“Honey, can we go to that restaurant that lets us dress up like dweebs again?”

Ok, Ok, ….it was listed as a face guard to keep cockroaches out of your hair when eating live cockroach soup….and yes, there is such a thing in Japan.

What crazy REAL inventions can you find?…and while you are searching, think about what makes it crazy in the first place….

oh, and did the inventor think it was crazy? ….maybe no one close to him/her ever told them it was crazy.

Or maybe the invention itself is not crazy – but rather it’s crazy to think people will pay you money for it.

I report – you decide :)

That was my next guess!

Hey, Mark, I see a need for a new invention – a product to kill the roaches in your soup. That would trump the need for that face thingy.

Or maybe we don’t need to actually kill the roaches – that might affect the flavor of the soup and then the chef would get mad. Maybe a mini stun gun would do. Anyone want to partner with me on this idea? Roger?

Anyone else feeling queasy? But hey – here’s an idea!! Mark’s Appetite Suppressing Soup. Lose Weight, Guaranteed! (Hey, there’s big money in diet aids . . . . (8^P)

I’ll shut up now, before I throw up on my laptop. (Hey, here’s an idea! Something to clean messes off laptops . . . something to make the mess gell into a solid mass that can be peeled off in one piece . . . . (;^)

Hmmm, where’s that inventors’ 12 step program topic???

I believe it is a shroud. For when you stick your face through the opening, for the pie throwing contest. Seals the whole hole.

It’s a window to the noodle dimension

It’s a very bold fashion statement. It says this woman has confidence and looks great in anything!

Ewww, won’t be needing one of those.

It is a new type of Frisbee and when this lady failed to catch it, it landed on her face and got wedged on and until she can get an appointment with her doctor to have it removed she has to deal with it. Unfortunately she lives in a village where the local doctor only deals in emergencies and this is not an emergency, so she is on a three year waiting list.

It is a new type of fly strip and unfortunately it was hanging in the kitchen and when this girl was called to dinner she walked into it and the incredibly strong glue that it is coated with isn’t removable from human skin and she now has to live with it on her face for the rest of her life.
