Nervous breakdowns are great fun, and always make you feel better afterwards. However, you sometimes feel like crap before it happens, and they don't happen often enough. People also tend to look at you funny afterwards.
The device can trigger a mental breakdown, send an alert to all around you
(Flashing lights and sirens) and after you're done, it injects you with (what else) caffene and sugar, to make you feel much better, thank you. It then notifies those around you that you're much better, thank you, so stop avoiding them.
An automatic version could sense when feel crap, and trigger by itself.

I'd rather have the caffine and sugar injection prior to the breakdown.
Better yet, hit me with some Valium.
Even better yet hit whoever's stressing me out with Valium. |

{Dammit [PeterSealy] stop slipping your posts in ahead of mine! You're driving me crazy!} |
|

Due to the mystical phenom. of Ideas by Concatenation, we have "Break-me-down, Build-me-up Dynamic FAT" which is certain to be a hit diet fad. |
|

QA, you apparently have not yet experienced a nervous breakdown. I assume that was a mild panic attack when you found 3 new pimples in one day? |
|
| |
[phoenix] It's yet more proof that Peter is, in fact, a
computer. No human has reactions that fast.
[QA] Have we broken you down yet? |
|
| |
Peter's apparently human. He's just yet to make a mistake. I suspect he lied when he said he was bald. I think he looks like Bishop. In this space no-one can hear you scream. |

This one's getting way surreal. I think Mariah Carey's currently trialing this one on behalf of Nescafe, Microsoft and SmithKline Beecham. Early test results suggest the breakdown is permanent. Bummer. |
|
| |
I noticed it unannotated for at least 10 mins |
|
| |
Am I mistaken or did phoenix just have a little break-me-down? PeterSealy simply submits ideas using other profiles then immediately posts to them to make it look like he's superhuman. |
|
| |
The bon mots below the half-croissant on a plate in the top left corner of my screen currently say "may contain nuts" which is pretty much right on the money. |
|
| |
I'd probably just manually trigger the device to get people to leave me alone. |
|
| |
You do realise it's only ever been you, me and PeterSealy in this place, don't you? |
|
| |
Sorry, [UnaB], but you and I are both [PeterSealy]. It's *all* him (except the twelve-year-old kids). |
|
| |
Great! Now that you have made me 12 again I have to go through purberty, again! It was painful enough the first time, why are you going to make me do it again? |
|
| |
of course, if you do have a nervous breakdown, you'll act like your 12 years old again anyway. So are they actually 12 year olds? or just revisiting childhood? |
