Stressed out? Sad? Let Mr. Whippy, a prototype ice cream dispenser on display during ars electronica, help you out. Mr. Whippy doles out ice cream according to the amount of stress (and misery) it detects in a supplicant's voice. The sadder you sound, the more ice cream you get. (via boingboing)
Fascinating...and it'd let me practice my acting skills any time I wanted a bigger cone.

That's amazing. I have got to get me one of those. I feel bad for happy ice cream eaters, though...

No need, Mike. They'd quickly become sad when they didn't get enough ice cream.
