Hooray for [Treon] the amazing! Shower him with buns for his olfactory genius! [+]* |
|
| |
[Treon] is a terminal fool who can neither write nor invent. [-]* |
|

Well, I for one applaud this idea. Most of
[Treon]'s ideas are nonsense
masquerading as an idea, whereas this one
is nonsense masquerading as nonsense, in
the best tradition. This may be the first
bun I have ever given [Treon]. |
|
| |
Not the first [Treon] idea that I have bunned, but he deleted the other one. |

As long as they're quiet, and assuming they don't dry out the nasal passages too much, I think it's good. |
|
| |
I was actually hoping these would be like
those whistles that have little propellors,
and would make little "vooooOOoooom"
noises as you breathed. |

Nose impellers that reduce alzheimers !!
Now why did GlaxoSmithKline not think
of that? + |
|

//memory, allegedy associated with
olfaction is strongly stimulated perhaps
reducing alzheimers// What if your
grandmother starts developing false
memories of her earlier life as a
hovercraft? |

A medical disaster of course, since it is the very humid exhalation air which keeps the olfactory membranes moist and therefore functional. After about a minute of the nostril propeller operating, you wouldn't be able to smell anything at all in that nostril. |

I just realized - there's nothing saying what the power source is. While I might normally opt for a mustache-mounted microdiesel, that might not be the best for this application. |

//exhalation air which keeps the olfactory membranes moist//
[ConsulFlaminicus], if the fans blast a saline mist into the nostrils, it solves the dryness issue. That would be a great application for seafarers who yearn for the experience of sailing while on land, and reminiscent of a nor’easter with gale force winds whipping at your face, and the sea’s so high you’re tempted to lash yourself to the mast to avoid being washed overboard. Good times. |

//I might normally opt for a mustache-mounted microdiesel//
[lurch], just route the exhaust to the top of the head. Is there a more reliable face-mounted combustion engine? |
|
| |
does it go in reverse too, you know, for deflecting hydrogen sulfide gas and thus preventing fartzhiemers |
|
| |
you'd be firing on one propeller most of the time as everyone knows that nostrils take turns and while one is pretty dormant, the other is working flat out. |
|
| |
Wait a mo - isn't the sense of smell more to do with the rate of change of concentration of molecules? Hence why, after a few minutes standing in a farmyard, the smell of cow manure is no longer noticeable. |
|
| |
In honesty, I suspect I'd be more willing to bun this if it was posted by someone else. As terrible as that is, at least I'd know they didn't take their idea seriously... [+/-] |

Disappointed to find that the props are /driven/, and not an unexploited free energy harvesting method. |
