Here's some stuff that I can remember using my truck for over the past year or so:

Bark dust, gravel, etc.
Dump runs for large items
Goodwill runs
Christmas tree
Lumber
New BBQ grill
Moving

I get that a lot of people have a truck and don't make use of it very often. But I make use of it quite a lot, even while living in a crowded suburban neighborhood. So I wouldn't say that you really only need it if you're a "farmer or ranch hand."

On your last point, depending on the length of the truck, you may stick out less into the parking lot if you park tail-in (generally there's more overhang on the rear end compared to the front.) This makes it easier to get out of parking spots, and makes you less of a hazard to other people using the parking lot.

You'll get none of my water; I need it for my mawn.

Well, people are notoriously not very good RNG machines. When asked to go to the bathroom a bunch of times in a row, I would bet most people would pick the same stall each time...

Flat, but not necessarily square.

As I was saying, she stumbled upon a solution whereby nearly 99.9% of all test subjects accepted the program, as long as they were given a choice, even if they were only aware of the choice at a near unconscious level.

This is exactly the crux of the issue with the iWatch - the type of "investing" is totally subjective. So it's not clear. I have no idea what type of return, subjective or not, overpriced electronics that go obsolete within only a few years provide. I'm not being pedantic - It's absolutely not clear. For example, some people buy audio gear as more of a fashion statement than for audio quality (Beats; I'd venture Bose to some extent, too, and others.)

To argue that two things will be better or worse investments in purely subjective terms is an exercise in futility.

Some type of "return" needs to be defined quantitatively in order to use the term "investing." Since none was provided by the OP, I fell back on the colloquial definition used in most English-speaking contexts, which is a financial investment.

If the OP instead intended the "return" to be more qualitative in nature, you'd have a hard time proving that the iWatch produced inferior returns. It would depend on what the buyer enjoyed more. (Watching movies vs. controlling their appliances vs. showing off the cash on their wrist.)

You may want to capitalize the leading character in a sentence before casting a veiled insult about being a native English speaker.

lol wut? neither of those things are an investment. Your house will not increase in value, and you will not be able to resell them at a profit. Spending money on that stuff is just as moronic as spending money on an iWatch, from a purely capital-building standpoint. While your personal choices about how you blow your money are interesting, they shouldn't really serve as an alternative to the type of person who wants an iWatch.

they will need a kickstarter campaign just to get one...

Unfortunately I have had a bitch of a time getting LibreOffice to reliably work with my old-ish MS Word docs, which aren't even that old (think like 5 years.) Random characters, breaks, etc. Anecdotal, but then so is your experience.

I'd like to sell you my renewable energy source - a spring. In fact, it is more easily renewable than many other renewable energies. All you do is recoil the spring again.

I have a 6-year-old Intel SSD and have had probably 30 power outages, and I've never experienced lost data...

Anecdotes be anecdotes, I guess..

Noise cancelling headphones are highly frequency-dependent, and typically attenuate only 20 dB or so. Earplugs can attenuate 30 dB, and aren't as frequency-dependent. And they are dirt cheap. The only downside is that they don't play music.

Maybe retail stuff could be packaged in a simple cardboard box with biodegradable stuffing, instead of those stupid, stupid plastic clamshell containers that frustrate and then cut me when I try to get them open.

Do you mean legally? Or from a user perspective? The answer to the former is they can't, and the answer to the latter is because nobody else provides the functionality they do.
