Someone Needs to Invent . . .

[CrimsonTide4]

QUESTION: What do you feel should be invented to make your world a little more brighter, efficient or user friendly?


1. CAR MEGAPHONES: I really believe that someone needs to invent megaphones for cars. Ideal08 proposed this on one of our road trips and at the time I thought she was ludicrous but NOW I want one soooooo bad. The horn does not get it but me yelling, fussing and other things might.

2. PATIENCE PILLS: Feeling a little impatient? Pop a patient pill and feel the calming effects of patience for 6-8 hours.

3. ISSUES RADAR: Meet a new person and want to know what is WRONG with them? Shake their hand and all their issues comes forth.

A car with a computer that you can just program your destination into and it'll take you there without you having to steer any wheel, change any gears or hit brakes and gas.

That would be GRRRRREAT !

They need to invent a good man! ok ok I know that's impossible

How about a robot that scoops up my cat's kitty litter.

A gaget that can tell you when a man is gay, married, or a no job



QTE

caller ID that TALKSso that I don't have to break my neck trying to get to the box or particular phone with caller ID on it before I answer it

A toilet seat warmer

an alternate for salt and sand in the winter. Salt melts the snow and ice but makes animals sick and also damges the roads and your car. Sand gives helps with traction until it gets carried away on the wheels...then you slide all over the place. Plus it doens't melt anything

A universal return center at the mall. this would be for all of those gifts that you don't want no matter what store in the mall that they came from. the center could have all merchandise on file with the current value of the item in case you don't have a receipt!!

a cell phone plan that offers FREE voicemail, caller ID, Three-way calling, roaming, long distance, and in-coming calls!!

Mittens/Cover-ups for the side view mirrors on vehicles. The mirrors on my truck are huge and on a cold and frosty morning the heat doesn't defrost them quickly or all the way. Wiping them down doesn't work that well either.

They actually make those. My sister has one. It will eiither tell you the number of the person calling or you can program a number that calls alot and it will say the person's name.

Voice-operated word processors, typewriters, WordPro software, etc. in order to VASTLY speed up the process of typing notes, research papers, letters, etc.

An automatic dinner-cooking machine---you know, like the automatic coffee maker. With this invention, all you would need to do is punch in what you want for dinner that day and what time and it will be ready whenever you and your family get home.

A magic word (or SOMETHING) that will put my 2 and a half-year-old son to sleep automatically at bedtime.


This is a great topic. I'll haveto think of some other things.

Man, korkscru, the person who invents this will be my HERO/SHERO for life.

I want someone to invent a personal hair stylist for the poor or moderate middle class.

Cycle days.

This idea comes from a friend of mine, a Delta who worked for my competing newspaper in Knoxville. She suggested this in an internal message (e-mail's predecessor) about a decade ago.

She suggests that women be allowed to take days off, with pay, so that you can get your stuh together. As she put it , what good are you to yourself and those around you when you're all cranky and *****y?

Ohhh, I am soooo feeling you on the car megaphone! Even though I would probably get mine revoked due to abuse because folks CAN NOT drive in Kansas!!

I know that I have seen voice-activated word processing programs. As you speak into the microphone (or headset) it types your words. In the beginning, they were really expensive and only used by the handicap. I am positive that they have it @ CompUSA and some other office supply store.

Me? I wish:

1.) Someone would invent a HUMAN muzzle that is attached to the end of a whip. That way, when someone opens their mouth to voice their UNSOLICITIED opinion, something stupid or inappropriate (especially repeat offenders) you could just "whip it on 'em" and shut them up. I would especially love to use this in the workplace!

2.) a robot maid so that way I wouldn't have to worry about her stealing or trying to seduce my (future) husband!

AMEN Soror!!! I'll even contribute to this one!!

[BLUTANG]

this might be stupid... but i would like someone to invent something that can make thing COLD really, really fast. Like a reverse microwave, for those of us who are too lazy / impatient to wait for jello to set, wait for wine to chill, don't have time to run to the 7-11 for ice (or have don't have an icemaker on the fridge), etc.
