WE UPGRADED SLIPPERS TO SURVIVE ONE HOUSEPLANT.

Dave went outside to water one plant. The plant got a drink. So did his slippers. We put three designs at a time through the same splash, backward step, and wet turn. Some soak up the water. Some hold a puddle. One slipper would rather stay by the plant than come home with Dave. We keep the useful changes and try again. All this engineering for one thirsty plant. Welcome to DAVEPROOF: everyday objects, questionable improvements, and Dave trying to get on with his day. What everyday object should we overengineer next?
