Religion. Otherwise, the grocery store would be crowded on Sunday mornings. Course, if it hadn't been invented, over population would be a problem. :D
 
As much as I love beer you can't make beer without fire, and fire has several uses. I'd say fire first, then beer. The guitar ranks right up there, too.

I'd say fire wasn't invented, it was discovered. The wheel, beer, bikini...in no particular order.
 
I'm going to say the transistor, which makes the ones and zeros in my computer work, which allows me to get on the internet, which allows me to read the HomeBrewTalk forum, which allows me to make beer.

Thank you, transistor.
 
I think cloth clothing is #1. Mostly because I don't look good naked, and I'm not a fan of tanning deerhide.

Of course, if there was no beer, then maybe I'd look better naked and wouldn't need to be covered. Except then I'd be cold most of the time. And I'm always cold anyway, so maybe it's not clothing that is necessary, but instead blankets.

That's my final answer. Blankets. I have a blanket that snaps up, so I can move around in it, and my husband calls it the "walking blanket" and it's pretty nice, but I think electric blankets are even better.

So.. Electric blankets and beer. That's all I need.

We wouldn't need clothes if it weren't for original sin.

Casting my vote for beer.
 
me. I am the best invention. okay, the 2nd best invention. my wife is first. and then our boys. hmmm. fourth. I am the fourth. beer is fifth.
 
The couch. ... You can read on it, watch T.V. on it, sleep on it, have sex on it, ( not that I do.) and drink beer on it.

So, I'd say beer is number one, couch number two. Final answer.
 
I'd say the light bulb

because without it, we'd have to watch TV in the dark

but yes, beer ranks pretty high on any "greatest inventions" list

bottom of that list, the worst invention, would have to be shaving. I'd like to go back in time and find the first IDIOT to take a sharp object to his own neck to scrape off hair. give him repeated BK punches to his berries
