If I was ever to become an inventor, the world would become a better place.
Oh, you don't believe me? Well then, read on, disbeliever, and learn the truth. Could you have thought of these wonderful ideas?
1. The rubber car. I think I've mentioned this one before, and Laura unwisely criticized it. Nevertheless, I know it's a wonderful idea, and I'll repeat it here. Basically, if you covered the outsides of cars (excluding the windshields and tops, of course) with a few inches of rubber, then wouldn't cars become basically giant bumper cars? You could crash all you wanted, and you'd sustain no damage to your car! How great would that be?
2. The driving phone booth. Came up with this one... about ten seconds ago. Basically, in a futuristic world, roads should be replaced with little rails that these driving "phone booths" can zip around on, like train tracks. Basically, you get into a little box (hence the name "phone booth") that you can sit in, enter in the place you want to go, and the contraption will then zip you along the train tracks to your location. You don't have to drive, and all the "phone booths" know where the others are and are headed, and so can program a path to your destination that is completely safe and timed so that you won't crash into other booths. It's genius.
3. The anti-watered-down drink. This one I'm especially proud of. You know how you go to get a soft drink, but they fill it halfway to the top with ice so that it becomes watered down after a few minutes? Well, this contraption fixes that problem.
Okay, this one will take some visualization. I hope your inferior minds can handle this. Okay, I want you to imagine a cup. Got that? Good. Now, imagine another, quite large cup, surrounding the first cup. I want you to imagine that there are spaces between these two cups. Okay, great. Now just imagine that all the sides of the first cup are held an equal distance away from the sides of the second cup by little rods. The rods aren't important, don't let then confuse you.
Now, if this cup was real, then you could fill in the space between the two cups with water, and then freeze it to make ice. That way, you'd have a sheet of ice surrounding your first cup, making it nice and cool. Now all you need to do is pour a drink inside the first cup. Voila! It's cooled by the ice surrounding it, but the cup's walls are preventing the melting ice from watering down the drink. It's perfect!
Perhaps you could ben add a rubber attachment that slipped over the gap between the two cups once it had been filled with water, so that when you were drinking your other drink no water escaped. Okay, now it's perfect.
And I'm afraid that I can only patent so many ideas at once, and so I'll only tell you those three of my wonderful inventions today. There will be more in the future, dear readers. My inventions will make this world a better place.
Thanks for reading,
