Barely Useful.com

In a world where it seems that just about anyone with an opinion is posting it online, in one form or another, adding our own voices to the ever crowded stacks of commentary might just prove to really be barely useful.

However, if you are like so many of us who are attracted to the internet to simply browse, we hope that you, upon stumbling across our humble site,  might just like what you read. Or at least find the writing tolerable enough to sustain your interest for five or ten minutes before you’re off to double check your inbox, update on twitter that you ate a PB & J for lunch, even though the bread was soggy and the jelly spread too thick – all while driving your Hybrid SUV. Eyes on the road, please!

Feel free to leave comments on any of the articles you read. We kinda like to hear feedback from the readers and patrons of this site, who, in a way, we sorta care about. And don’t forget to follow @barelyuseful on Twitter.

In closing I have to pose the all important question of our time – what exactly is the purpose of a spork? And if it was invented to make eating easier, why is trying to eat soup with this half spoon / fork almost impossible and working relentlessly to stab the overcooked green beans enough to make a person go crazy? Go ahead and think about that, but not too much – it’s barely useful.
