    If you could invent anything that your mind could conceive, what would it be?

    Mine would be a small hand-held button that, when pressed, would make every mobile phone in a one mile radius ring until answered.

    probably

    A food supplement in liquid or powder form that would sufficiently line your stomach in preparation for the consumption of alcohol, thus removing the need for greasy burgers, kebabs and the like before or after drinking. It would also prevent any trace of a hangover the next day and would cause you to wake up feeling refreshed after exactly 3 hours sleep.

    Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most.

    God, what a horrible idea Kolodny - removing the basic human pleasure of eating a great big fúck-off burger and then washing it down with enough alcohol to preserve a dinosaur!

    I commute to work every day. I want a star trek transporter.

    I mean what good is getting ****ed if you cant use it for an excuse for being in late to work the next morning?

    personally I'd have to invent some sort of nano-bot that hunts down and destroys genital lice with extreme prejudice.

    I can just imagine the maketing compaign for Kali's invention + celebrity endorsements smile.gif

    My own humble inventation would be a Manager-BS to normal english translator.

    A gold watch which when a special button on it was pressed would freeze time all over the world (or maybe just make you move so fast that it would make it seem like the world was frozen). Imagine the fun you could have biggrin.gif

    i would invent a machine that stops people from using the same avatar as me every time i change it.....
    other than that, it would be a plate of permanent mash potato and steak that always renews. hmm, or maybe just the food replicator from star trek....

    I'd also like a small calculator that you could ask any question at all and it typed out the answer with complete truth and honesty.

    Yours sounded like an 80's TV movie/series called "The girl, the watch and everything".

    I'd make an infinite money dispenser...

    And something that I could use to shave with so that the hair wouldn't come back for ages... (Not permenant... Maybe I'd want a goatee at some stage?)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,130 ✭✭✭✭Karl Hungus


    Actualy...

    Scratch that...

    I'd invent a pocket-sized something that does everything...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,313 ✭✭✭Paladin


    Id make a hoverboard that can fly any height, go any speed, and has a force field around it so i dont fall off or experience g-forces smile.gif

    i would have a small device implanted in my head, so that whenever i wanted to i could...

    a) hover about 2 foot off the ground (and still move forwards and back at any speed when hovering)

    b) become invisible (includes clothes and any item carried at the time)

    c) allow the distortion of time so that i can move more quickly than everyone else, (yet not age quicker than everyone)

    Just play counterstike all the time and install a few cheats (this is not an endorsement of cheating).
