Crazy but useful Inventions

Do you have any (only slightly) crazy ideas for inventions that would be really useful?

Mine would be a small robot that went around your house hunting spiders with a small laser and cleaning up the remains. I am sure every spiderphobic household would want one. Though being a slightly crazy idea I am not sure how easy it would be to get something to recognise a spider.

A knowledge diffuser wherein you just sleep with your head on top of the book and when you wake up you already know the contents of the book.

i had a great idea the other day, but it's not so crazy and may well be patentable and marketable so i'm not going to tell you buggers about it yet, suffice to say my invention will mean an end to burnt toast, huzzah!

I had an idea for a car alarm system, using blue tooth technology.

This thread reminded me of this:



Scientist: I've invented a pill that gives worms to ex-girlfriends.

Don: Uh, right, and what's positive about that?

Scientist: Well, it's a pill that gives worms to ex-girlfriends.

Don: Couldn't it also give worms to ex-boyfriends?

Scientist: This is a drug... for the world... to give worms to ex-girlfriends.

Don: Well, great. Thanks for stopping by.

Scientist: You just don't get it here! Huhoooo!

I already have something like that.

My toaster can only toast for up to 2 minutes and 30 seconds at one time. It doesn't even begin to brown a bagel that has been toasting for that long on the "bagel" setting. It even has a display timer that shows how long to do.

If someone wants that, they can just get a cheap toaster from Wal*Mart. Damn piece of crap is way under powered.

I also once had the idea of the emotor-horn - a car horn that can make different sounds that express a friendly hello, an irritated honk, or a enraged warning blast depending on how your pressed the lever.

Absolutely brilliant! The only good spider is a dead spider.

For all guys who had girlfriends who say this "I shouldn't have to tell you, you should just know!", and then spend the night on the couch, I have something that will revolutionized the relationship game! It's called the Female Mind reader! Just simply attach it to your blue tooth headset, press the button and you can instantly read your girlfriend's mind! Never again will you hear the annoying phrase "I shouldn't have to tell you, you should just know!"

I also sell the Universal Remote with female mute buttons! :D

Heh very funny, but you know chaps it doesn't have to be like that!

Do what I do and anytime the female does that, well next time she asks 'what would you like for dinner' just reapet her own words back at her.

Okay okay sometimes it earns you a slap, but *shrug* it's all good!

How odd that I happen to be watching that movie at this very moment.
