I guess there were a few times throughout my life when I used a technology for something other than its intended purpose. Gillette Razors, from what I can see from their commericals, are supposed to be for a man's use. I use them all the time to shave my legs. They get a really close shave, and they are more sturdy than "girl razors". I understand that they were probably directed towards men who need to shave their faces, but I don't see why it would be so bad for girls to use them on their legs. Just because the razor isn't pink and scented does not mean that girls cannot get use of out them.

I'm sure that you all know that cell phones have an alarm system on them. I don't think that phone companies really expected someone to constantly use it in place of an alarm clock though. I constantly use my phone for an alarm and a clock, sometimes even more than I use it for calling and texting! Alarm clocks take up way to much space on a nightstand, and I feel like setting an alarm on a phone is a lot simpler than trying to figure out some high-tech alarm clocks.

When I was little, I used to use my brother's Play Station as a cd player for my music. I understand that PS was meant for video games, but it can also be used for playing other types of discs as well.

Another thing that I can remember about myself is that I use a coffee maker to brew my tea in the morning. You can just put the tea bags in where the coffee is supposed to go, and the water runs through them and brews tea for you, just as it does for coffee. It's a lot easier than dipping a tea bag in a cup of hot water constantly until all of the tea is displaced in your cup. The coffee maker just eliminates a few steps for you so that you don't have to do as much work.
