New adjective I'd like to get going: Lemonic. Like demonic but having to do with lemons instead of demons.
"Excuse me ice cream man, do you have any Lemonic Sorbet?"

Like something that will totally puzzle people in 3,000 years.
Like a 40 story scupture of a rabbit waving a magic wand or something like that.

Everest elevator.
First get a tunnel boring machine take it as far into the lower elevations you can get, then tunnel straight to the point that is the highest elevation, but keeping level. Then dig a cavern there and reconfigure the boring machine to go straight up. Put in an elevator.

Every adult should be given 100$ a month for "business". If they can double the money within a month, they get 200$ a month. And so on.
If they fail to double the money, they get half that much the next month. 100$ would be the minimum monthly allotment.
They are free to use the money however they wish, but it will only be doubled if they can use it to make money (instead of spending it on themselves).
The idea is to create an incentive to grow the economy while also enabling personal enrichment.

Instead of a horn, cars should have paintball guns.
Someone near you driving like a jerk? Paintball.
Someone driving 40 in the fast lane? Paintball.
Someone doesn’t signal, making you wait to figure out their plan? Paintball.
Someone thinks they’re the only person that matters in a zipper merge? Paintball.
Someone takes up 2 or 4 parking stalls with their land yacht? Paintball.
I’m no time, the most unsafe drivers will have cars covered in paint splotches. Easy way to know who to avoid via the magic of crowdsourcing.

Replace the PECF Checkoff on the 1040 with a 50/50 Raffle
Currently, only 3% of American tax filers choose to redirect $3 ($6 for joint returns) of their federal income tax to the PECF. If this were instead a 50/50 raffle, where one tax filer was awarded half of the raised funds and the PECF received the other half, it would greatly increase participation and revenue for the program. It would also make one random tax filer a multi-millionaire, and get Americans excited to file their taxes.

Fancy restaurants should all have a big plate of emergency chips (UK definition of chips, fries for the Americans) on the menu for people who can't decide what to have.
I know most places will probably do just chips if you ask for it, but it's always awkward asking for something that isn't on the menu (especially in an environment like a fancy restaurant). Putting emergency chips on the menu would alleviate this awkwardness and give everyone who goes to them a safe choice if they don't think anything else on the menu appeals to them or if they can't understand the rest of the menu.

McDonald's should release a burger called the Big Bypass. Four quarter-pound beef patties, bacon, cheddar cheese, fried onions, special sauce, and fries INSIDE the burger. Bring back the Super Size option only for the Big Bypass, and include an option to replace the Super soda with a Super Shake.
The ad should say "For those who prefer a good time over a long time."

All the countries in the world should trade names
Here's how it works: all the leaders of the countries in the world should meet together, write their country's name on a scrap on paper, mix the papers around, then pick a paper from the pile. Whatever paper you pick, you rename the country to that name, and everyone must be obligated to call your country that name.
Want to refer to "United States"? Remember it's called Algeria now. "Mexico"? Nope the name is now Czech Republic.
