Great now my t-shirts will scream every time I throw them into the dryer..............

 

[Tegan]

. . . the usual passive nature of textiles into a virtually all-singing, all-dancing version.

Am I the only one who sees something REALLY wrong with that sentence?

 

[Karsikan the Berzerker]

If it exists there will be porn of it....imagine that stripper's panties moaning.

 

[Tegan]

*horrified* D:

 

[Darkness]

Fuck am I gonna do with it, tell my girlfriend's bra I love them so they unhook faster or something?

"applications could include clothes that are themselves sensitive microphones, for capturing speech or monitoring bodily functions, and tiny filaments that could measure blood flow in capillaries or pressure in the brain."

And then the gov't will issue clothes to spy on us! D: And no, Tegan, you're not the only one *shudders*. I'unno, it would be a lot cooler sounding if it weren't for the fact that it was fabric.

Or maybe your girlfriend's panties will acctually announce when she farts so she can't blame the dog.

 

[soullesshuman]

I can imagine clothing hating getting wet.

 

[MurderDeathKill]

Ahaha, I love this phrase. The piece must have been written by an author in the UK, it's such a British thing to say. http://www.worldwidewords.org/qa/qa-all4.htm

 

[King Weavel]

This is why we can't have nice things.

Shit. If the socks that my brother ruined and somehow dyed blue while doing the laundry could listen, they'd want revenge on my brother.

 

[Ampoule]

Now only if scientists can create a husband that can listen!


AH. HA. HA. HA!

 

[[Q]]

Who comes up with this shit?
I mean, who really sits down and is like "I want to invent something."
1: "Hey! Let's spend millions of dollars on clothes!"
2: "I don't think that's a great idea."
3: "BUT HOW?"
2: "Guys."
1: "We'll give them some cool power, like, like.."
2: "HEY YOU GUYS DON'T LISTEN TO ME!"
1: "LISTENING! OMG LISTENING CLOTHES! BRILLIANT!"
3: "LET'S WORK ON THIS IDEA IMMEDIATELY."
