I guess they could be shaped like
thought clouds too and have 3 small
spherical bubbles below them.
A lot has been written about speech
balloons here. But i couldn't find any
mention of regular helium balloons with
pointy horns coming off the bottom.
The balloons could say, "I'm
happy" and
then you could go around being happy
all
the time to avoid the irony and
embarrassment of being sad and having
an "I'm happy" balloon.
In the linked idea [AfroAssault] complains
of "using cardboard" (to write a thought
balloon), "it takes really long to have to
write down all the words, and then you
can't reuse it. "
If you had an "I'm happy" balloon and you
just stayed happy all the time, you
wouldn't want to say anything except,
"I'm
happy", and it would always be true, and
you wouldn't have to write anything new
or change it ever. You could just tie the
I'm happy speech balloon to an ear so
that
it floated above your head and you could
walk around smiling and being right and
not even actually moving your vocal
chords but still communicating in real
time with everybody.

No speech bubbles but thought bubbles. Scroll to the bottom.

There's a certain poetry to the image of a person becoming less and less happy as their "I'm Happy" balloon slowly deflates. +. |

Can I get a thought bubble that says "I wonder if these people are real..." |
|

I see this as another inexorable step towards the relaization of gameplay-styled living around the globe. Soon, peoples name's will float above their heads, and if you poke them they are forced to spew information about their lives.
The job of the pickup artist has been removed.

Nitrous balloon, that way one has some spare "happiness" in case of unhappiness. |

A whiteboard marker should write on the surface of a helium balloon quite happily. Then you could create your own thoughts. |
