In 2005, after thinking of how I can improve the concept of the blackbery, I designed a cell phone that would be much more than a device you use to call people. 3 months before I was going to get the funding approved Apple came out with the "iphone". I swear someone from Apple was spying on me because it was the same exact design as mine.

Uber


Seriously me as well. I went to Moscow in like '99 and they were doing basically cash only version of this with civilians randomly working as "unmarked" taxis.

I remember thinking "this could work in the US" but I was 13 and went back to trying to score for the first time and blow shite up.

Damnit.

You drew a rectangle on a bar napkin and now you think you invented the iPhone?

The squatty potty. I noticed how much better things worked out when I leaned forward.

But here's another I have yet to see developed - why do businesses that accept credit cards still need to take possession of your card? Why can't I just scan a barcode on a restaurant table to have my Visa App pay my bill so I can get out of restaurants quicker? If I can pay for a 30 mile cab ride using only an App on my phone, why isn't there a Visa equivalent of Uber? If I can access the upper floors of a hotel using only an App on my phone AND enter my hotel room using the same App, why can't I pay my restaurant bill using similar technology?

No! No, no, not 6!

I said 7. Nobody's comin' up with 6. Who works out in 6 minutes? You won't even get your heart goin, not even a mouse on a wheel.

7's the key number here. Think about it. 7-Elevens. 7 dwarves. 7, man, that's the number. 7 chipmunks twirlin' on a branch, eatin' lots of sunflowers on my uncle's ranch. You know that old children's tale from the sea.

It's like you're dreamin' about Gorgonzola cheese when it's clearly Brie time, baby.

Step into my office.

Cause you're frickin' fired!
