    Stinking of Iron Bru and heavy with an accent from the far North. 'Och! Good to see yeh cousin' the fat, cankled women brayed to the smirking lady at the door.

    In the background a man grimaced...
    Woken by the sound of a screaming 'bairn they called it', the man was shocked to discover that the uninvited guests were planning to stay for five days.

    'Are you not going on holiday' he gasped unbelievingly. 'Aye. Aye. We're here! My cousin said come stay, we have the room, stay as long as you like!'

    The man started to choke on his cornflakes....

        Mmm, cheers but not inspired. I did think of a iBrian, like an iPod but it stores all your memories and experiences, then maybe, a grown man remembers in detail how his mum hit when he was 2 and murders her. Done too many murders recently though.

            You could carry on with the iBrian theme without the murdering aspect. e.g. the guy loads all his memories, etc, onto the iBrian and the machine is able to mimic him (for some reason that makes this proocess difficult to replicate). In fact it mimics him exactly. It is him! But they argue and fall out and the man is left in a quandary as to whether he should turn this machine off, effectively killing a sentient being. Something like that. Loads of possibilities. It might be ruled unlawful to turn off the machine. Or the machine could simultaneously be plotting to turn off his human counterpart! Or want to kill itself. Or want a new personality.

                How about someone with something surreal wrong with them? Kind of edward scissorhands. How they cope with everyday life, prejudices etc, and finally accept their difference (or have it cured and realise how much they miss it).

                    It's a movie. About a fella working on the moon. It's very clever.

                      Should have been iBrain obviously. South Park has nicked all the best wierd deformity stories, face like a bum, foetus growing out of chin etc.
