..Or You Never Got Off Your Ass and Someone Else Invented It.
I invented adjustable measuring spoons years before I ever saw one in the store.
I invented pizza with the entire crust area filled with nacho cheese. I ate the original, but 6 months later Domino's actually released an identical product.
I invented Turntable.FM 6 months before I had heard of it and 4 months after it was launched.

I remember being 12 and talking with my parents and cousin about how listening to music changed (Vinyl > 8 track > tape > CD). I predicted one day we'd have little cubes that we would just plug headphones into. :sdeek:

I tried to turn a Mitch Hedberg bit into a business. I would always get pissed when I'd get a receipt for something that cost $.78 or less, plus, you never find receipts you actually use. I wanted to find a way to have all receipts automatically sent to online/mobile banking, so you'd always have them, but you wouldn't be given a paper and ink statement.
Turns out there are like 10 aps that do that :dubious:

I invented a contact solution to use when you run out of contact solution. Your eyes will look like they're on fire ( :love: ), but it's very affective.
