Tell Us Now: 18 Inventions We Desperately Need

We asked Cracked readers on Facebook, “What hasn't been invented yet that needs to be?” And y'all just gave us some brilliant ideas. We hope there are some inventors out there to see these ideas come to fruition.

TELL US NOW. Jerry D. wants to see wheel well defrost on cars. The Midwest and Northeast needs this now! Kicking snow out of the wells is a pain in the ass! CRACKED.COM

TELL US NOW. Carlo C. wants to see solid rubber tires that never go flat and paint-on tooth enamel for cavities. CRACKED.COM

TELL US NOW. Lori W. says, Teleportation. For any trip, you have to plan, pack, fly or drive, unpack, then do it all again in reverse at the end of the trip. I don't want to 'go' somewhere else...I just want to 'be' somewhere else. CRACKED.COM

TELL US NOW. Teresa C. imagines a vent at the top of houses on the roof crest. Open it manually, no electricity, and have a screen under it to keep bugs out. Heat rises, let it out of the top of the house! CRACKED.COM

Boldly Go!

TELL US NOW. Shower Lindy W. says, That conveyer belt shower thing from The Jetsons. If I can just stand there and I get clean without any effort, awesome!!! CRACKED.COM

TELL US NOW. Reed B. says, A real electronic personal assistant. Answer my calls, texts, and DMs, then only interrupts me with the most important bits and summarizes them. Keeps my calendar up to date and gives me the exact amount of notice I need to be mentally and logistically prepared for my day. Essentially, I want a personal Karl who will keep my life organized! CRACKED.COM

TELL US NOW. Kristy A. says, A pill humans can take so bugs don't bite or sting them. They already have it for dogs with fleas and ticks, why not for humans for mosquitoes and bees! CRACKED.COM

TELL US NOW. IIII I Matt C. imagines a household machine that cools drinks as quickly as a microwave can warm them. CRACKED.COM

TELL US NOW. Joel J. has lots of ideas, 1: The ability to grow your own replacement organs and body parts 2: The 'super solar cell' and 'super storage battery' that completely solves energy needs 3: Seamless transportation pods that take you anywhere on Earth in a matter of hours 4: An atmosphere cleaning device that removes greenhouse gasses 5: Completely biodegradable standards mandatory in all manufactured goods resulting in the end of waste CRACKED.COM

TELL US NOW. Ismael S. says, Medicine gummies. My life would be 10 times easier if I could just give my kid a Tylenol gummy instead of having to tame a bull. CRACKED.COM

TELL US NOW. Mark P. says, Prepay for gas at the pump! I don't want $40.01 in gas... I would also like to clean my car out, not sit and babysit a gas dispenser. CRACKED.COM

TELL US NOW. Stormie S. suggests, Definitely need the food replicator from Star Trek and have it be free to everyone, so there would be no more hunger. CRACKED.COM

TELL US NOW. Mark S. imagines a dryer where all the clothes come out folded. CRACKED.COM

TELL US NOW. Antonio G. says, If possible, I was thinking of a magnetic leash made for dogs. They are always pulling you off your feet and running away. It would be wrist mounted with a circular control in your hand with buttons. The signal would be placed in a harness on the dog. It would be like an invisible leash. The settings on the device would allow you control on how far you would let your dog roam, be it beside you or a few feet ahead. CRACKED.COM

TELL US NOW. Hannah P. wants a cure for animal allergies. I need to be able to rub all the cats on my face and be able to breathe see. CRACKED.COM

TELL US NOW. Gretchen P. says, Car windshields and windows with UV protection. Not sure if it's a thing already or not, but it definitely should be. Not everyone wears sunscreen, and this would help. CRACKED.COM

TELL US NOW. Kristopher M. shares, Ok, hear me out... The worst thing about entering your vehicle is the sauna-like rush of hot air. I've always thought there should be a series of vents at the top of the car. Upon unlock (or remote start), it would activate a fan that exhausts the hot air from the vehicle. CRACKED.COM

TELL US NOW. Jordy P. wants to see air mattresses with a built-in contraption to keep it inflated even if it loses a bit of air. CRACKED.COM
