How to come up with new units: putting it to the test.

[muffinman42]

Now I said that this is a good way to come up with units. But didn't give any examples, But now that's changed!

"It's a billboard that defies gravity and cuts through stone as if it were butter."
It's floating, and has a pair of OTCs for cutting!

"It's a sofa that can move faster than the speed of light! It hasn't gone on any murderous rampages yet and fits into the boot of a car"
Well, it's a sofa. It has a infinite probability drive strapped to the back and can fold away to fit into any (very large) car boot!

Improbability drive Couch?

That...couch...

[Ross_Varn]

I can totally see Zaphod sitting on that, Gargle Blaster in hand, speeding across space. Just saying.

I saw it more as a futuristic Luggage, but okay.

Minecraft is a sofa that can disable electrical hardware and swears.

Presumably this couch can be wedged into a space that, not only can it not be removed from, but furthermore could not have gotten there in the first place.

Bah, you'd only need a warp drive for that.

Still, if you only need finite improbability to make the hostess' undergarments leap one foot simultaneously to the left, imagine what a couch with infinite improbability would be capable of.

[Tzan]

It would also have an improbable amount of coins between the cushions, improbably enough to buy a small planet.
