Things people have yet to invent

Amanda said:

They need windshield wipers on glasses. *nods*

Rachael said:

Yes! I definitely agree with that.

Chien Yee said:

We should also have self-cleaning rooms

Lil said:

Daleks.

…

At least the annihilation of the human race would be really cool.

Aisling said:

My Wordpress kind of self-upgrades! As in, I go into my Dreamhost Panel, click the “Goodies,” section, and click “Update!” And it updates it! Yes. It’s handy. It helps me from destroying Wordpress, as I’ve done many times.

Jordie said:

Clothes that hang themselves! I’m sure I’ll think of a few others…

Julianne said:

Shirts that iron themselves! I hate ironing, but I love wearing clothes that need to be ironed.

Louise said:

Every time I wash my car it just gets dirtier.

Vera said:

I want self translating anime , so that I won’t have to wait for fansubs so much
As for worpress: oh come on! Isn’t it fun when your FTP refuses to upload all your files at once? And you end up spending 2 hours upgrading a measly script ^-^

I also want a device which let’s my brain learn while I’m sleeping. I wish I went to bed and just woke up knowing PHP *wishful thinking*

Mallory said:

Yep. All of those things totally need ’self-whatevering’ implemented into them. Like ASAP.

Ooh, this one … ‘Self-fixing lightbulbs’ … I have a plethora of lighbulb jokes ready …! OMGZ. But at the risk of sounding corny, I’ll bite my tongue. Just this once, though! T_T;

Annie said:

I actually prefer doing my own cleaning - sad I know. There’s nothing I can think of, which should be invented - if possible.

Cherry said:

Maybe you could be the first person to invent them! Would make yourself millions.

Amber said:

My Wordpress self upgrades and it backs itself up too. I love that plugin because my FTP takes aeons to upload all the files usually.

Nika said:

RL search function!

The second thing Vera mentioned also sounds handy.

Lene said:

lol! What Amanda said made me think of self-cleaning glasses, without the wipers

Oh and I definitely agree with you about the self cleaning car. I guess the closest I can get right now is the tunnel carwash where they just throw water at your car and giant machines with sponges rub it. That’s so cool… but you have to pay for it. Self clean would be so much better.

Kaylee said:

This just makes you seem like you’re too lazy to do any of it yourself! But the world would be so much easier if everything was self-doing

Katherine said:

Self cleaning TV/computer screens. I hate having to wipe the dust off them.

& Garbage that takes itself outside every garbage night
It’s just gross having to do that. Haha

Carly said:

Cups and plates which take themselves to the dishwasher!!

Hev said:

I want all these suggestions. Also how about a machine that will cook for you. You know from the Jetsons (yeah I just aged myself) the machine you just told it what you wanted to eat and poof it was there. That is what I want.

Chantelle said:

I want your car! It’s adorable. If it cleaned itself, that would be a plus. Self-recording TV sort of exists. With digital cable there are some show that you can watch “On Demand.” If you missed an episode of X, you can just turn the TV on, select the episode “On Demand” and watch it (you don’t have to tell it to record or anything). The bad part, though, is that it’s only for some shows.

I would want self-organizing email.

Rachael said:

@Chantelle - If you have “Sky+” (digital television) you can tell it your favourite show and it will record every single episode of it. That’s quite useful I guess. However, I don’t have Sky+.

And thanks for liking my car. It most definitely is cute.

Sarah said:

How about a self-cleaning house. Now that would rather lovely.

Kristina said:

I completely second the self recording tv.

Crissy said:

Totally agreed. Especially the wordpress

Kycoo said:

Self-writing essays. I would love self-fixing light bulbs, too.

sean said:

How about a self cleaning self healing self upgrading human being???? oop’s We are already here!!! x

Forrest said:

I would love a self-cleaning car! Mine is always messy; the rain doesn’t clean the outside, and entropy undoes any cleaning I try on the inside.

kim said:

a 99p coin!

Scott said:

With regard to the lightbulb….

The first lightbulbs invented didn’t actually blow!

It was soon realised that this did not make sense financially, and it was “back to the drawing board”. Thus, the modern, blow-at-the-worst-possible-moment lightbulb came to be.

Photocopiers which turn the pages by themselves!
