The Babylon Bee Ranks Humanity’s Worst Inventions

Since the invention of the wheel, many have pondered the greatest inventions of mankind. The Babylon Bee, however, is more fascinated by studying humanity’s worst inventions.

Here is an exhaustively researched list of mankind’s worst inventions — ranked:


  1. QR code menus – You’ll pry our germ-soaked paper menus from our cold, dead hands.
  2. TikTok – Yes, some of it is funny. But at what cost?
  3. Sin – Bad, but not quite as bad as QR code menus or TikTok.
  4. OneDrive – Save. My. Files. On. My. Own. Computer.
  5. Unskippable cutscenes in video games – If you want to make a movie, MAKE A MOVIE, NOT A VIDEO GAME.
  6. Ohio – No elaboration necessary.
  7. Mustard gas – Bad, but not Ohio bad.
  8. The designated hitter rule – BASEBALL IS NINE PLAYERS VERSUS NINE PLAYERS. THIS IS HOW GOD ALWAYS INTENDED IT TO BE.
  9. Zoom meetings – This includes Microsoft Teams.
  10. Communism – Hundreds of millions killed. Many more lives ruined. Still better than a Zoom meeting.

Think there’s anything that was missed? You’re wrong, this is a definitive list.
