Daily Prompt: The Next Big Thing
Swing the Mood (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
The next big thing that everyone will just have to possess is the soon to be invented Mood Accelerator.
Mood Accelerators will be the new phenomenon brought to the world by some grey-haired old codger ‘with money’ and a young genius pipsqueak with too many brain cells for his cranial capacity. Borrowing from the old codgers experience in the 70’s with mood lamps and mood rings and the new pipsqueak’s generation’s love for energy bracelets they will develop Mood Accelerators that will monitor the multiple possibilities of moods present in an individual and present a method of choosing which mood they most want to be in at that time. Everyone will want the ability to ‘choose their mood.’
I can see now how the Mood Accelerators will take society by storm. First, they will be a marketing entrepreneur’s dreams. The accelerators will be designed to be worn in many different styles. Some will prefer bracelets, while others will want them incorporated into their watches. Some will prefer to wear their Mood Accelerators as pendants while others may like theirs in their designer belts. I suppose those would work somewhat like Wonder Woman’s Truth Lasso. The possibilities are endless.
As the various designs and the effect of the Mood Accelerator catches on the developers will bring out another generation of their wonder gadget with an option to yield control of the Mood Accelerator to others for a period of time. This will cause Hollywood and the film industry to do somersaults as they envision ways to move the 3D experience ahead by leaps and bounds. Imagine, if you will, how the theatre troupes and other stage performers can use such a wonderful, event enriching gadgets.
Soon every church, synagogue, and other houses of worship will not be left out. They will understand that they can truly enrich one’s worship experience as they develop ways to let worshippers experience the brief wonder of heaven on earth. As soon as religious people develop the good sensations you know the sex world and pornographic industry will cause a world-wide demand for the Mood Accelerating gizmos for adult entertainment purposes.
Yes, everyone will have to have one. It’s only a matter of time before Big Industry sees the benefit in employee morale and worker output. Mood Accelerators will soon be in everywhere. You had better enjoy your bummed-out lousy day while you still can!
