Counterpart to "What would you ban if you could?" Get as silly as you'd like. Add desperately needed things to this world.

I would add:

  • A "Your Car Is Screwed, Go To The Garage NOW" light, in addition to the normal "Check Engine" light.
  • A breathalyzer for cell phones
  • A fast food restaurant with a drive thru that serves legitimately healthy food

Your turn!

An option to quickly and easily remove stuff from your Continue Watching list in Netflix.

Is that a Wocket in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?

A "Your Car Is Screwed, Go To The Garage NOW" light, in addition to the normal "Check Engine" light.

I'll second this one. Those "Check Engine" idiot lights are annoyingly vague, like when your woman is mad at you but she won't tell you why.

I'd add an idiot light that says: "Bad Sensor — There's Nothing Actually Wrong With Your Car." (This resulting from a brand-new vehicle whose oil-pressure gauge suddenly began to read zero.)

They actually had that. It didn't last.

Easily available vaccines and antibiotics. Also, way more funding for research of microbiology and genetic augmentation for disease-preventing purposes. Heck, for medical science as a whole.

A bar inside Target. It's been memed before, and for damn good reason.

Also, a play area inside Target. Have you ever gone there with a preschooler? [tdown]

A Disney and/or Universal park in Canada. Canada has their own parks, but they're just not comparable.

An application that allows you to tell if someone genuinely likes you!

Or, opera glasses that allow you to watch an opera, anywhere, and at any time.

I would add more taxes on rich people and add funding to EPA and CDC.

Eyes on the backs of our heads. I don't really have any misbehaving children to worry about, but I figure it could be useful for other things, such as driving.

But wouldn't it hurt if you get into a car crash and your head gets hit or if you are outside and they get exposed to bright sunlight?

Coffee delivery. Or maybe a coffee truck that drives around the neighborhood, like the ice cream truck.

Easily available vaccines and antibiotics.
Already have it here in Europe, mate. I paid eight bucks for a Hep B shot and just about as much for twenty Cipro pills. I expected to pay through the nose for Cipro, but what a surprise - the surgeon gave me a 50% subsidized prescription.

However, if we only had interlinked medical leave, work&pensions and taxes databases, taking a lot of frankly idiotic shit off people's backs, it would be nice.

Having your usual Big Data downsides, but still nice.

A good Country Music station—no morning or afternoon talk show, no bro country, lots of stuff from The '80s and The '90s, the classics like Waylon and Willie and Johnny Cash, and just enough bluegrass to keep things interesting.
