I think a serious answer to that would best be posted in the Mentalist area.

How about a tie?

I believe you can buy a gimmick tie

unsure if it's an impossible knot routine or just a silly lengthening tie

I invented a gimmicked tie once.

A place I can't go. So we'll stick with the silly answer that I can't see anything without them.

Self-Tying Shoelace and Interlaced should be in the list, I'd guess? :D

How is it SILLY to say that a person who happens to be 'visually challenged' can't see without their specs?

When I'm sober, remind me to add a clothing section, with shoelaces and purple underpants with mustard yellow trim (gimmicked).

If you already have a mobile phone why not use the calendar function for a type of day for any date type effect, not sure how far into the past/future they go but could be worth further investigation. Or another option that I am sure has been overlooked is a pocket diary and a four individual cards :)

Don't forget to add the Clothes-related section (you could also add 'gimmicked' shirts to that list, too)
