Not only can you make a silk purse out of a sows ear, we have been able to do it for over 80 years now!

WTF! The article tells us why the company decided to do this, but still… WHY!

With all of the things that you could spend your money on why pay scientists to make a silk purse out of 100 pounds of pig ears! The polio vaccine wasn’t invented for another 30 years, maybe they should have been working on that! If we hadn’t distracted these scientists with making silly purses maybe their collective brainpower could have been put to real use.

Without stupid scientist tricks like this, I bet you I would already have my flying car and my hover board!
