Ideas – April 23rd 2016

  1. Imbue machines with self awareness, so they may still crash but at least they feel as bad about it as you do.
  2. Maternity/paternity leave for childfree couples. You say, I’m X years old, I have no children and no plans to, if you have one you can produce a doctors letter proving infertility, you then get some bonus holidays. Maybe just half as much as actual maternity/paternity leave but you should get something because you’re less of a drain on the company than someone who has a child and needs the full leave period.
  3. Better to weigh yourself on the wii than to wee yourself on the way
  4. Swords with explosive tips
  5. Time traveller who jumps through time whenever he falls asleep
  6. The swinging temple with an order of swinging monks. On huge chains suspended in a canyon. Acolytes have to get over sea sickness and develop a good sense of balance.
  7. The war of the roses, but the leaders of one side are actually possessed by a demon over the generations who is agitating the whole thing
  8. Plant fresh herbs in parks for public consumption
  9. Cyborg dragons
  10. Alexander the alright. Alexander the greats not so great cousin
