In this thread, we will post great ideas that should be implemented in real life. Inventions.

I’ll start…

A remote control for your office door. Let’s say you’re sitting at your desk and you have an important, confidential call come in but OH NO….your door is wide open and you’re lazy. Grab that door remote and boom….you don’t need to get up and close the door.

What other fantastic ideas do you guys have?
 
Posted in the hot tub thread but works for this one too. Retractable dome for hot tubs. No more worrying about where/how to stow the cover and can be done easily by 1 person and 1 finger.

Pretty sure you can do this already
 
I work with a lotta women who complain about the toilet seats always being up, but since women don't seem to ever invent anything (oh boy, will I get roasted for that?), toilet seats that automatically close within a couple minutes of being opened.

This is a really good idea, in part because it gamifies the process of taking a whiz. Guys can have an informal contest to see who can get by with the shortest timer. Imagine the pressure of trying to finish off your stream, knowing that you have only four more seconds before the commode slams shut. Clutch performance, like Indiana Jones having the wherewithal to grab his hat just before the tomb was walled off for good.

(Need age categories for this event -- it's a young man's game, as we all know).
 
Breathalyzers that attach to your car and test for COVID. If you're positive, car ain't starting. This way, people can stay the **** home when sick like they should and we can end the pandemic, or get a little closer to it.

If you cant finish a whiz in two minutes, you might need to see a doctor.

For what it’s worth, multiple people at my office have this. It’s a magnetic release. Good idea though.
 
I feel like someone should be working on a way to clean clothes without doing laundry. Like some kind of self cleaning fabric.

20 years ago I had a bunch of aqua-phobic pants, you could spill anything on them and they wouldn't stain or even get damp. Were a miracle on busy show nights. Now I never see them anywhere.

I dont think this is a new invention
 
My buddies and I used to sit around the bar and come up with stuff.

Splashless urinal. The back had a full length sponge that was constantly running down and then through a series of rollers and disinfectant and then loops back around.
 
The Portapenis™ - this was at house parties where the girls would be in line for bathroom and the guys would piss outside. We invented a funnel with a tube that allowed women to pee standing up. This was circa 1990. Later I actually saw this thing for sale in a magazine, about 15 year later.
 
Spray that you spray on dog pool and it disappears.
So you have to carry around a spray bottle instead of a small roll of bags? You’re bending over to spray the crap anyways, just pick it up and throw it away…about the same effort.

Yes. the president of a bank I started working at 25 years ago had one.
 
smellAvision. i can smell stuff thru my tv. rollercoaster……so you don’t have to slide a beer on a table. it’s a coaster that rolls. also, something that turns anyone’s voice into the voice of alan alda.

What? You just spray it and poof it's gone
Again, who wants to have to carry around a spray bottle when walking your dog?
Yeah I'd much rather have to pick up the poop and carry it back to the house.. I need to carry bags with me so
 
A teleportation device. Mainly so I don't have carry around all that dog poop anymore. I'm sure my brother in law in Seattle will know what to do with it.
 
OMG, ANOTHER IDEA CAME TO ME TODAY….

It’s not really an invention but more of a business idea. Let’s say you are driving somewhere far for whatever reason. You have room in your car for another passenger and would like to be paid a small fee for picking up that person and taking them to their destination that’s on your route. Go to OUR website and post your route and others can post interest and prices they are willing to pay. Who knows? Maybe you’ll connect with a new life long friend? Maybe you’ll be murdered? Maybe find a new lover? I don’t know. This world is whacky.

What do you say, sharks?
 
:blackdot:

This godforsaken forum occupies wayyyy too much of my time already, might as well add yet another blasted topic to follow.

I had this same idea a few years back.
It's a matter of a good site/app as you said.

Probably won't gain traction though.
 
How about some kind of deluxe Uber strictly for Intoxicated individuals, where they pick you up at the bar and bring along an extra driver, to follow you home in your own car? Maybe more dudes would be less apt to drive drunk if they didn't have the hassle of getting their car back the nest day.
Hmmmmm

We had a service like this back in the day
