I don’t know how anyone missed this, but the five year anniversary of the Segway passed last December.
That’s right, you remember the two-wheel human transporter that was supposed to revolutionize walking, but was in fact made famous in the most absurd manner known to man by Gob Bluth and mall cops world the round.
The Onion has a great retrospective on the Segway, examining “Life Before The Segway.” Seriously, what would we be doing these days without this ingenious invention? No really, I mean, what WOULD we be doing?
