your terrible ideas

An edgy rival to Top Gear hosted by 5i55ym4nwh0r3 called Autofellatio.

"Jonathon" -- a marathon reading of Jonathan Safran Foer, Jonathan Lethem, Jonathan Franzen and Jonathan Ames

a shorthand ilx code system appended to the end of your display name that explains to people why you're being insufferable; longtime users will take your actions with a grain of salt and random googlers will be none the wiser

</3 = recent serious breakup
RIP = recent death of family member/friend
OD = "on deadline"
UTW = "under the weather"
USA = "American"

had never heard of that. no bad idea goes unrealized i suppose.

An Encyclopedia Brown-themed coffee house named "Mugs Beany"

yes

Million dollar idea.

(Though I was always more of an Einstein Anderson fan myself.)

declare myself a sovereign citizen and refuse to pay property taxes, put up my own flag in the front yard

commission pitbull to write a national anthem for my nation

dale

that's a mr. show sketch, except with bob odenkirk doing the national anthem instead of pitbull

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNsYlnxSNcA

can't find a video of the anthem scene unfortch

hmm, I may have residual memory of this Mr. Show sketch

I still think hiring Pitbull to write a national anthem is a thing

also lol @ hoos's reference

An iPad cover that looks like an Etch-A-Sketch.

Is it an actual functioning Etch-A-Sketch?

That doesn't really seem like a terrible idea. It might arguably be corny, but I'm sure a lot of people would buy it. Is there an etch-a-sketch app?

this is already a products

i feel like there is tension on this thread

i am in the dwindling camp of people who use it to post terrible ideas

the rest of you are like

1. here is my awesome idea
2. profit

xxp: although that one is non-functioning.

Disguise your computing device as a mere child's toy

ik, r?

this thread was always 95% awesome ideas.

Well I thought it was a terrible idea. Somebody else (the manufacturer of this product) obviously thought otherwise. Maybe this is why I'm skint and they're not?

Next year, whenever Omar Asik makes a terrific play, we're all going to yell

"Oh Mah Assssssshhh"

a website called doihavechops.com where you can upload a clip of your guitar playing and it will tell you if you have chops or not. an animated humanoid guitar will pop up and say stuff like "that was some sick shredding!" or "move over, Stevie Ray!" or "careful with that axe, Eugene!" (or maybe just "yes, you have chops"). it would only give positive feedback because guitarists have vv fragile egos.

floater implants: voluntary eye surgery to give people new floaters or modify their existing ones. maybe you were born with a little wormy floater and you want to make it look like a cobra. or maybe you want to see the name of Allah or your girlfriend's face or the Kiss logo every time you stare at a blank wall. absent-minded people can even get floaters that spell out "take 10 mg of Accupril (triangular brown pill) twice daily" or form a map of where they live. it's a non-reversible procedure & if you do it too much you will probably go blind.

a band combining American roots music with Jewish comedic folklore called Levon Chelm

The guy driving the truck according to Baton Rouge Police Cpl. Tommy Stubbs actually pulled off and drove to the police station himself. Neither of the men were arrested or charged for the incident.
Apparently the guy driving the truck took the guy on the hood of the trucks "Shimp" sign from his shrimp booth and he jumped on the hood as he tried to drive off.

that sounds like the most Louisiana thing ever to happen

oh btw I completely posted those to the wrong thread

AN-y-way

a band whose style is Beaches meets Dirty Beaches meets Beach House. It's called Dirty Beach House.

a t-shirt for Ojai, California that reads:

Ojai:

I upgraded your JAM!

open a coffee shop aimed at the legal community called Due Diligentsia

this coffee shop would not have a bathroom (that's what makes it an especially terrible idea)

haha, I love that

"keep your shit to yourself"?

Z S is p much the king of terrible ideas

i mean that as a compliment

porn sites with "underwhelm" in the name, like "CUM UNDERWHELM" or "COCK UNDERWHELM"

A comedy rap album by a rapper called Jew-Z, featuring the single "I've Got 99 Problems (But Who Can Complain?)"

Everytime I play golf lately, nothing but rain
I got 99 problems but who can complain
The chiropracter did nothing for my lower back pain
I got 99 problems but who can complain
