highDEAS: the best ideas (while you're high)

Opposite of a Microwave:  Why does there not exist a home appliance that very quickly cools something down? Like if you have a case of beer that's room temperature and you want to make it ice cold, the only thing you can do is put it in the freezer and wait an hour. **** that. And this isn't a completely outrageous idea. Maybe one could take liquid nitrogen and blow air over it on the thing you want to cool down. That would probably work.

Build-A-Bong Workshop:  A store extremely similar to "Build-A-Bear" where patrons can build or create thier own bongs using various materials

see through fudge:  fudge that you can see through. it tastes like fudge

Lighter Pager:  There should be a little thing you can put around your lighter and when you hit a button on a remote the lighter will make a noise you pick like a ringtone. No more lost lighters! and same system works for the remote because we'd probably lose that too.

Ketchup Packets:  How come fast food places give you ketchup in those shitty little packets while the BBQ sauce(substitute favorite dipping sauce) gets a nice little dippable container?? When are they going to give ketchup the respect it deserves and make the switch. A plus for this would be the ability to drive and dip without having to make a mess of your car because your stoned and can't open the packets correctly or just can't seem to keep it clean... Think about the possibilities...

Sleeve of Ritz:  I don't understand why Ritz crackers are packaged like they are. Is an entire sleeve of Ritz crackers a normal amount for a person to eat?

Little People Hotel:  Do exclusive little people hotels provide complimentary bars of soap that are half the size?

When I was a teen, all we ever said was..."huh"?







(yes, I was a "burnout")
“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

        -- Marcus Tullius Cicero, 55 BC (106-43 BC)

I guess that this guy doesn't have a Whataburger nearby. They serve up their ketchup in the little dipping sauce-like containers.

LOSER STAMP: A big "L" tattooed on their forehead so sane people don't lose that one second it takes to determine wheather a person is a liberal loser or not.
We can call it "Loser Saving Time".

MINI CAMPS: Located locally so we can march them to them instead of shipping them way off to a larger camp.....think of how much that will reduce their carbon footprint.

A SHOTGUN FOR DUMMIES: A single barrel shotgun, chambered on each end for 3" magnums and both chambers are fired simultaneously by a single trigger. You may ask, "How can that work"....I say, "Quite well probably."

But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

There is! I saw it on the Food Channel, it costs a couple thousand, it is basically a supercooled "stove" top pour on juice... seconds later... SORBET

Ice and salt water work pretty well if you're cooling cans or bottles.  The salt lowers the freezing temperature of the water from 32° to about 28°.  Just don't lick the can while you're drinking.... it doesn't taste very good.

Dry ice works faster... Just gotta be more careful or you pop too many cans.

I don't think your average pothead is going to mess with dry ice.  I wouldn't want to risk losing a drink in the process, either.  I was just offering some simple advice.  Who doesn't have a container of salt in their kitchen? :-)

I saw that on Mythbusters. The only thing is they didn't tell us the ratio of water to salt needed for this. Do you need just a little salt in the water or a whole lot?

On the other hand, if pothead DUmmies are encouraged to "experiment" with dry ice while high, the results could be... plesantly Darwinian.

You know, I never did bother to find out.  They probably teach that kind of thing in cooking school.  I would start with one cup of salt to one gallon of water.

edit: The instructions I found for making ice cream say 1/4 cup of salt for every 2 cups of ice.

For example if they were drinking soda out of plastic bottles, they could plop a few pellets of dry ice in, screw the lid on real tight, and it will cool it down and add more fizz/POP to it.  :evillaugh:

I was wondering just how hard it would be to convince 'em that huffing dry ice would get 'em high, but that'll work too.

There is a property of water called colligative properties which raises the boiling point or lowers the freezing/melting point of water due to the concentration of the particles dissolved in the water.  For salt, 58.5 grams (approx 2 oz.) per liter of fluid (approx 1 quart) will lower the fp/mp by 3.72 degrees C (approx 7 degrees F).  This property is also the reason antifreeze should be mixed with water, not just poured straight into the radiator.

I offer this tidbit in the name of having cold beer faster and hereby open myself to the accusations of chemistry nerd...

The individual chemical chosen makes little difference, what matters is that it will dissolve. The fp/mp depression is based upon the total number of non-water ions/molecules in solution, so table sugar (1 molecule when dissolved) would be 1/3 as effective as calcium chloride (3 ions) and half as effective as table salt (2 ions)

Even though I never get stoned, I have considered this and came up with an answer that would probably work, but would require massive amounts of power.

High powered Ionization.

Blast a target item with ridiculous amounts of positively charged ionized particles. Once they pass through the target item on their way to the negative electrode, they will carry heat with them. I suspect though one would need magnets that could be used in an MRI machine, as well as a hospital sized budget to power the device, but I say it can be done.
