Gay Guy Trolls Straight Guys By Inventing 'Privacy Screen' For Them To Use While Eating Hot Dogs

Gay Guy Trolls Straight Guys By Inventing 'Privacy Screen' For Them To Use While Eating Hot Dogs

Straight men of the world, the day has finally come! At long last, you can eat hot dogs without people picturing you performing oral sex.

All you need is the Glizzy Gripper.


What is a Glizzy Gripper and why on Earth is it named that? Well, we can't answer the latter question, but as to the former, it's a privacy screen for your weiner (the kind you eat in public, with like ketchup and stuff, not the other kind that you eat in private), and it comes to us via Unnecessary Inventions.

Take a look at this revolutionary new innovation.

No longer will you need to question your masculinity or sexual orientation just because you like to put long cylinders of meat in your mouth.

Now you may be wondering, who, for the love of God, asked for this? The answer is (hopefully, at least) absolutely no one.

It's just the latest exploit of inventor Matt Benedetto, a Burlington, Vermont gay man who specializes in "designing products to solve problems that don't exist," according to his Twitter bio.

If you've ever wanted a Nuggie Necklace—a necklace that holds your chicken nuggets—or a scarf from which you can sip egg nog, Benedetto is your guy. His totally needless innovations for human life that literally no one asked for are so incredible, he's even been featured on The Kelly Clarkson Show.

At first glance, the Glizzy Gripper may seem like the most ridiculous Unnecessary Invention of all. But given the much talked-about study that showed straight men won't even wear a mask during a global pandemic because they're afraid of looking weak, is it really that much of a stretch to think chomping on wieners gives them pause?

People on Twitter, certainly didn't think so!

And they made sure that uptight straight men were the butt of this wiener joke.




But some were far more focused on the Glizzy Gripper's glaring design flaws.





Unfortunately, it's not actually going to market any time soon. Like all of Benedetto's unnecessary inventions, the Glizzy Gripper is just another way for him to have fun with 3D printing.

Guess straight guys will just have to keep gobbling wieners the normal way, like the rest of us.

'Dr. Pimple Popper' Star Reveals She Suffered Stroke While Filming Series: 'I Had A Part Of My Brain That Died'

It's already scary to witness a younger person go through a life-changing medical diagnosis, but it's especially jarring to see a medical professional, who presumably knows best about how to care for themselves, go through the same.

Sandra Lee, known as "Dr. Pimple Popper" on Lifetime, is well-known for her bedside manner, medical knowledge and ability to share her knowledge in an accessible way, and, of course, her unique approach to dermatological care.

Rob Schneider Dragged For Criticizing Elizabeth Banks' 'Dangerous Rhetoric' After She Called Out White Female Trump Voters

After actor and filmmaker Elizabeth Banks—who played Effie Trinket in The Hunger Games—called out white women who voted for President Donald Trump, MAGA actor Rob Schneider lashed out against what he referred to as her "dangerous rhetoric."

Those who've read the book and seen the film adaptation of The Hunger Games know that Trinket—known for joyfully announcing, "Happy Hunger Games and the odds may be ever in your favor!"—is a mistress of propaganda for a hostile government that forces teenagers to fight to the death every year to intimidate critics and keep society's poorest and most vulnerable in line. Trinket eventually embraces the rebellion.

Kid Rock Dragged After Offering Massive Discount To His MAGA Festival Due To Abysmal Ticket Sales

Musician Kid Rock has hitched his wagon to president Donald Trump for quite some time now, and it seems he too is in the "find out" stage of that particularly exercise in FAFO.

It seems that when the president you form your entire personality around craters to a catastrophic approval rating even for him, your ship starts to sink too.

Trump's Border Czar Ripped For Hypocrisy After Telling Pope Leo To 'Stay Out Of Politics'

President Donald Trump's border czar Tom Homan was called out for hypocrisy after telling Pope Leo XIV to "stay out of politics" after he clashed with Trump over the widely unpopular war in Iran.

Last week, Pope Leo criticized the war and called on the world "to reject war, especially a war which many people have said is an unjust war, which is continuing to escalate and is not resolving anything."
