Heavy Petting

In 1975, Gary Dahl became a millionaire virtually overnight when he invented the "pet rock." He marketed it as the perfect pet - one that did not need to be fed, walked, groomed or bathed. Ignoring this selling point and wanting in on the action, George and Neal marketed "The Pet Rock Pet". Sales were abysmal - and those pets that were actually sold succumbed to starvation fairly soon thereafter.

George and Neal's later invention, Mood-Swing rings (randomly forcing you to punch people when you are at your happiest) fared only slightly better.
