Plan for a new horror movie.
I starting a plan for a new horror movie. Picture this. The camera is following a guy from behind in the dark and rain. You hear a voice say from an alley, hey can you give me a light? The person the camera is following holds up a zippo to light the guys cig, but then pulls out a can of wd-40 and sprays it at the zippo, creating a flamethrower and facially disfiguring the guy. The character runs down the alley with the man lying on the ground screaming. At first the guy is just a violent hood like Dally Winston or Alex from a clockwork orange but as the story goes on, he becomes more insane, more addicted to violence, and needs more of it to cope, like a heroin addiction. His crimes get more and more terrible and obscene every time.

Home is wherever I'm with you: I wish there was some kind of online generater/app thingo,
Where you type in your measurements/body type/etc, then type in your diet/workout goals (whether weight or inches or sizes whatever) and it shows you pictures of celebrities/models/beautiful people with similar body types to inspire you.
Like I’d never ever ever have Natalie Portman’s figure, but maybe if I work out hard enough and eat right I can look Christina Hendricks-ish (HA, okay, in my dreams, but if I had this app I would know which celebrity I could have a chance of looking like).
I don’t at all like this harmful, eating disorder thinspo… and I don’t feel like it’s really a good idea to post lots of thinspo on Tumblr since there are so many ladies recovering from eating disorders, or just self-conscious ladies in general, but I also think lots of people do respond well to photos as motivation, so if you could find photos of women with similar shapes weights more similar to your own, you could have better, healthier results.
Basically I’m just a touch overweight (shocker!) so I’d like to get to a healthy BMI, and inspiration helps because the calorie counter app I have depresses me.

The Footle
Anyway, you know how sometimes you’re holding something in your hands and you have to open something like the fridge? Well there should be a pedal instead of a handle. It could be called a footle.
Too bad footle is already a word. It means “to speak of foolishness”. I wonder if that means something …

Freezing alarm clock blanket
This is a normal blanket and is bascally the opposite to an electric blanket. It contains an alarm clock and when set to ‘go off’, the blanket drops significantly in temperature, encouraging you to get up. One of the major problems i face every day is getting up from a warm, cosy bed to a less warm room / house. If i knew my blanket would get cold, i’d quickly get up!
Airbag on stairs for safety
How many injuries or deaths do we have every year caused by people falling down stairs? I think stairs should be fitted with sensors to detect feet movement. An airbag should be fitted to the bottom step. If abnormal data is collected by the sensors in steps higher up the stairs, the airbag should be activated to help prevent major injury or death. A combination of weight, pressure and timing could all be combined in to an algorithm to know when to activate the airbag.
Tilting alarm clock bed
Your new bed has an alarm clock built in to it. Once it goes off, the bed gradually tilts to a full 180 degree angle (vertically), forcing you to stand up on your feet and get out of bed – ensuring you don’t sleep in. Not so good if you have someone in the bed with you of course who don’t want/need to get up :)
Passenger jet ejection system
Earlier in the year a passenger plane landed on the hudson river… then an air france plane crashed in the atlantic. Passenger planes should be able to detect when they’re nearing water and automatically ‘eject’ either the passengers or part of the airplane to improve chances of survival. Planes will typically break up when they hit water and if they don’t, chances of survival are low – a bit like being trapped in a sinking car. The roof of the plan should come off or some sort of cushion / airbag-like feature should activate underneath the plane to lesson the impact of hitting water.
Epaper from the classroom
Within the next 5 years all school kids should be able to have all their textbooks stored on a small mini computer with an epaper screen, this could be very lightweignt, less than 1kg and could be eventually updated so notes could be taken and stored. There could also be wireless feed from the teacher so there’s a fully interactive lesson.
Traffic light countdown to red
I for one am sick of these bloody ‘amber light’ scenarios where you’re cuaght going through the lights just as they’re turning amber. Depending on the junction, this can mean the lights are red by the time you make a turn – but because you’re past the white line, you’d block a yellow box if you were to stop. Why don’t we have a ‘countdown to red’ timer shown beside the lights? Some pedestrian lights change instantly to red upon pressing a button which is extremely dangerous for both driver and pedestrian… especially for lorries or buses who can’t stop quickly.
Online Will
Plenty of webmasters own more than one site… they also have plenty of accounts (email, social networks, servers etc..). If they die, what happens to those accounts and sites? Most webmasters are young (internet only really being around the past 10-15 years) so the need for an online ‘will’ service will be great in years to come. Passwords, accounts, sites etc… can then be passed on to loved ones rather than be forgotten about.
