iPhone Text Feature That Measures Alchohol On Breath

Writes dictated words appropriate for the level of inebriation.

Could have the breathalizer build into the case communicating with the phone through Bluetooth. An app transcribes your speech into text appropriate to how drunk you are.

So even if you say reasonably clearly: "Yea, we're having a great time, just had a couple of cocktails, might get a nightcap later."

the Boozelator writes "Yhaa, whesher havna ghurat tum. Shhesh hassa kuploa costaze, miguna ghutta nihcap lillator."

This way the person receiving the text will know how drunk you are.

       Tell ya what, bun this I'll go bun one of your ideas. The rules don't say anything about bun trading. Peace through commerce, it's beautiful thing.   

       Seems a little squirrely? Eh, makes it even more interesting.   

       (Not on a regular basis, that'd be too weird, just a one time thing)

       Totally agree. That's why I picked ideas that I thought were the best going down your list.   

       Conga Line Dance on linked monowheel scooters [+]   

       Odiferous Area Denial System [+]   

       Gloves for finger painting [+]   

       Last one was the best.   

       Now that being said, I think we both might be spending a little too much time on the old HB. Making us both a little wacky. Maybe I'll take up golf. Get away from these damn computers all the time.

       There's an idea.

       In order to receive the messages, the recipient should have to match or exceed the sender's degree of inebriation. Think of it as geo-fencing, but with lassitude instead of latitude.

       Thought it was a familiar idea…. see link

       I like the idea of setting your phone to only talk to people as drunk as you are. I never minded drunk conversations with friends if I were drunk, but get an obviously soused buddy calling at 10 at night? Suddenly I turn into the Pope.   

       By the way, I haven't drank for decades but doesn't mean I don't have great memories.

       // Suddenly I turn into the Pope. //   

       Now *that* I would like to see. Where were you hiding the hat?

       //Now *that* I would like to see. Where were you hiding the hat?//   

       "Is that a Pope's hat in your pants or are you just very very very happy to see me?"   

       I know they're cliche' but those Pope hat down the pants jokes never get old.

       Gotta add, if it's too garbled, the app just sends "Too drunk to talk right now".   

       LOL!, Then if you try to text again the app says "Dude, really. Sleep it off."   

       You could also program it to say "Bro, listen to yourself..." and it plays back a recording of your slurring mess.
