Well, there's...

-Nintendo's Power Glove
-Windows Me and Vista
-Child-proof caps
-Truck nuts
-Cheese in a spray can

-Speed cameras
-Automated phone directories that require you to "say what you want to do" then forward you to the wrong place
-Computer viruses / Adware
-Philips CD-i
-Virtual Boy
-The special effect they used in X-Men 3 that made Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen look younger
-"Auto-Tune", that awful vocal effect that inadvertently made Cher sound like a robot in the 1999 song "Believe"

...just to name a few.
