Nasal irrigation with salt water can be remarkably soothing for cold and allergy sufferers; but you can only spend so much time leaning over a sink with a neti pot up your nose. Why not take the pot and the sink with you everywhere you go?
Based on another ancient Ayurvedic invention -- the beer helmet
-- the Neti Hat contains an ample saline supply, heated to body temperature, connected to both nostrils with comfortable plugs. Two-way stopcocks control the flow: open one of them, admitting water to one nostril (note: hold your breath while doing this), and turn the other the opposite way to drain the outflow downward into a waste receptacle, e.g. a discreet back-mounted snot-pack. Repeat as needed -- any time, anywhere. This is the life!
(Thanks to J.M. Stroker for design details)

This is amaroli [nineteenthly, Sep 15 2010]

+1 for the sketch alone! I particularly like the little teardrop. |
|
| |
I do have my doubts on the anatomical details though, I must say... |
|
| |
You don't need the reservoir if you combine it with amaroli. |
|
| |
Wouldn't suggest wearing one of these of a first date
though. |
|
| |
And yea, [+] for any idea with such a nice
illustration. |
|
| |
Simple, elegant, functional...absolutely brilliant idea
(and illustration)! [+] |
|
| |
[nineteenthly] I had to look up amaroli..... oh. Yeah. Why don't you try that and get back to me... :) |
|
| |
OK, i'm going to link to my wife's interview on YouTube now. |
|
| |
So, then *I* had to look up amaroli. I can live with
the reservoir. |
|
| |
although Neti pots really make me choke, this is a wonderful invention and so nice to see you here again! + |
|
| |
Would a septum piercing nullify the effectiveness of such a device? |
|
| |
[infidel] Look at the drawing. NOTHING could EVER
nullify the effectiveness of this device. It is
completely unnullifiable. |
|
| |
True. It is a very nice drawing. |
|
| |
//It is a very nice drawing.// |
|
| |
It's way beyond nice. I vote we put this image on our
(US) currency. Maybe the $77 bill, or something. |
|
| |
A notion as off such deviced hat ting device,
delight, is highly favourable as a pure business, off
devoid Market's, and other malignent, spread's
ing'zz device,, |
|
| |
As you would wear, a bakery Bag, in a Blown Up
State,, :-PP,, or to the Next prozvvince,,... |
|
| |
Fish net such stock ing's,, is wide ly regarded as
'Favourable' or or or even Devaourable,, :-),, of
other Intelligent beeing's,. |

A Director, that has 30 one dollar per minute
secretaries, receives maybe 300 bilion a year, from
his rental suit business, and develops , suddenly, a
NeW Busineess' MODEL,, with ,, and then goes in
his Own TUTUTUTTTUT train set suit after that,.. |
|
| |
You raise some interesting points, [sirau], and you
cut right to the nub of all that's at fault with the
modern macroeconomic ethos. |
|
| |
TUTTUTTUTTUT [MB], you completely trivialised this attempt to beat the Turing Test. I say it did very well! |
