So I play guitar. I had a problem where I would sometimes drop my pick. Then, one day, I had an idea. I took some copper wire and attached it to a pick through a small hole I burned into it with a needle. I wrapped the wire around my finger. Now I physically cannot drop my pick.

You just made these things obsolete.

I thought that's so you can throw picks at the audience

Actually they are just for looking like a big rock star that can afford to throw away a fistful of picks every night.

What could a pick cost, 20 dollars!?

That’s without counting the extra money spent on replacing strings, I’m sure using this kind of thing regularly would seriously shorten their lifespan.
