I mean is "sliced bread" really that good.
Is it worthy of being our benchmark for amazing?
We've cured diseases. We've split the atom. We've put people on the fucking moon.
But no, those achievements pale in comparison to creating a machine which to do what is, let's be honest, a task that most people could do if they wanted to.
A lot of the time this blog is based on how much I hate most people, but I'm just jealous most of the time, the human race can be pretty amazing sometimes. The human race has created the works of Shakespeare, and deciphered ancient, dead languages.
I think we all need to get together and agree upon a better thing than (the admittedly good, but not great) sliced bread to be seen as the pinnacle of our achievement.
