Phase3

What is your dream invention?

I say dream invention because it will most likely be on that would never be made

My invention would be for someone to invent a way for us to talk to our loved ones that have passed away

Would be nice if heaven has a phone number.

I just think it would comfort a lot of us if there was a way to talk to them until we leave this earth

Stop Hitler? Stop U2?


The world's problems like climate change can only be solved through strategic long-term thinking, not expediency. In other words all the govts. need sacking!

If you can add value to someone's life then why not. Especially if it colors their days...

Given the opportunity and the means, I would invent a Super Powerful vibrator to satiate all the women out there who value sex over emotional intimacy. And trust me, there are enough of them out there, that these vibrators would sell like hot cakes. eek

A special brush where you could wash, shampoo and dry your hair in 10-15 min. I invented it for a school project in junior high, but my asshole dad talked me out of it and helped me invent something else and I got a C on it, ugh!

U2 is the Hitler of music. I know some people hate U2, but that's serious.

A door that can only be opened from the inside. (Yes, I dreamed that once.)

Don't forget the chain, either, in case they get through all that lol

Wasn't that... Clockstoppers? (Not looking it up, just guessing.)

But also there was some shitastic Adam Sandler movie which had the same thing in it. And they sorta had that in X-Men because the one dude was so fast.

There is literally numbers on it, which are minutes, not levels of toastiness (although it could be viewed that way.) Find ya number, bruh!

When I was in my 20s, I thought a coffee pot with a weighted heating element would be great. The fuller the carafe is from coffee, the more heat that's applied to keep it hot. The more people empty the carafe, the lighter the heat is under on the hot plate element. Because we've all seen that last bit of coffee in the pot that is under such high heat, it evaporates a bit, then burns and stains the bottom of the carafe. If the heat was a bit less to compensate for that, it'd probably not happen.

Not a dream invention, but it was always an idea I've had. And now all of you have it. Enjoy. Just cut me in for 20%. Big Ern's a daydreamer, not stupid. HA!

Dream invention: Probably just the ability to travel quickly. Like a transporter or something like that.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

No, the one I saw was from 1980, The Girl, the Gold Watch and Everything. (Followed by a sequel, The Girl, the Gold Watch and Dynamite, which I never saw.)

I'll check out your movie if I get a chance, mainly for Jesse Bradford, who was a babe.

I think I'd probably kill someone I didn't like. Then go back in time to before I killed them so I couldn't be arrested for it. But I could live the rest of me life with the knowledge that even though this person is still alive, I'd still have the memory of killing them.

Haha like that scene in SpongeBob SquarePants when SpongeBob goes into his friend Patrick's dream and he's dreaming of being on one of those coin operated horse things. And despite knowing it's a dream and that he could ride around on a real horse he's content to stay on the coin operated one. Then SpongeBob leaves and Patrick accidentally drops his coin down a manhole and goes "oh shoot, that was my last quarter" and he just sits there doing nothing for the rest of his dream.


I have three young children, I watch a lot of cartoons. Can you tell? lol

Here's another idea: if you had a time machine, would you travel forward in time to see how your life will look like 10 or 20 years from now?

That's an interesting idea. I'd be extremely disappointed to go 10 years into the future and find out I was dead though.... That would kind of kill the mood somewhat.

You knew it was coming. And I'd leave most of history the same, because for anyone who's ever watched Star Trek: The Next Generation or otherwise, we know not to fuck with the timeline of history.

That said, I'd hope that someone would take the chance of getting in between Prince and his drugs. Harass the fuck out of him until he gets his shit worked out. Be that positive nuisance.

Of course, we'd still not have the gems we have now with SDEs, but...

I like U2 to a degree. They're one of those bands that do great songs, but not great albums. Feel the same way about Pearl Jam, Todd Rundgren's Utopia.

The reason I put them in with Hitler is because they're a marmite band. People seem to either love them or hate them!

Or maybe just get that doctor there a day or two sooner. Who knows how much difference that would have made.

If it were possible to invent I'd want that stick from Jupiter's Legacy. But making more than one or two would be a problem.
