your terrible ideas

an autobiographical interactive fiction game where you wake up as me, with all my memories from today, but it's 14 years ago, and you have to decide whether to do things that might make your late 20s better, or go through some stuff that completely sucks but ultimately hopefully wind up with my current situation. also, moral quandary of whether it's okay to make choices that prevent my kid from ever existing.

Cartoon about obnoxious child political pundits called Beltway Babies

Trying to popularise the use of the phrase "shit off" as somewhere between "piss off" and "fuck off" in severity.

Create one of those super-addictive app games that people spend tons of money on. Maybe one where Islamic terrorists can be playable heroes, and Russians, African warlords with child armies, etc. Basically, a more naughty version of those other ones.

This idea is probably terrible enough for me to get arrested, or exiled, so I'll scrap it.

move to LA cuz it's "cheaper"

Internet-era version of Shocker (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shocker_(film)) where an internet troll/greasy Steve Bannon analog is sent to the electric chair. For some reason he ends up in the Internet Wires causing mayhem and murder via computers, smart phones, wearables, IoT junk, etc.

He can be played by Jack Black

Pretty sure that was the plot of Heartbeeps.

An autonomous taxi company called Tim Machine.

a Meetup group called "We Don't Lock Our Doors at Night" in which dozens of trusting, community-minded fiftysomethings go on hikes and pub crawls and kayaking trips while the organizer's henchmen rob them blind

Love that one.

Reminds me of an idea I had as a kid: start a religion called Brothers and Sisters of the Latrine where all the worshippers would flush their money and valuables into a ceremonial toilet.

I'm in

i have a jar of coffee and a jar of sugar at work. am wondering whether i should just have a jar of (coffee and sugar) pre-mixed in the correct proportion (1:1 in my case, but it would work for other ratios). would save me literally seconds twice a day.

do it

beaten to it:

> This mix contains coffee, milk solids & sugar. Just add hot water and enjoy.

(for some value of enjoy)

(last time i was in the big supermarket i noticed they were selling individual portions of (non-)milk in tiny tetrapacs. nearly bought some for the cuteness factor (except it worked out at about £13 a pint))

holy crap koogs, that's a lot of sugar!

granted, i take my coffee black, which would probably seem pretty gross to you

Uh? That's only 1 sugar per cup. My last team lead would put 4 in...

(Teaspoons, obv)

(instant coffee this is)

That's what I was assuming, although I'm interested to see what a 1:1 blend of grounds and sugar poured into a coffee filter would produce. Diabetes, most likely.

I'm guessing we are still at odds over the definition of instant coffee...

My Cousin Vinny remake starring Vin Diesel. It's called My Cousin Vin Diesel

i'm in

i love the title, but i think it should The Rock

star the rock

in like vin

"My Cousin Vin Diesel, is that the new Vin Diesel movie?"
"No, it stars The Rock. You're thinking of the new remake of The Rock"

"But the movie is literally titled "The Rock Starring The Rock, are you sure?"

lol

A small brewery called Two Pashtuns and a Mash Tun

Omg

A restaurant that's both kosher and halal, called "A Two-Steak Solution."

not to take anything away from yr terrible idea but technically every kosher restaurant is also halal

You're right, the only viable solution is a single, binational steak.

maybe they sit you at your table and take your order. but then they make you move tables before service. another party sits at the original table and orders food. the food for both parties is delivered to the original table, so everybody eats at that table, and it's no big deal because this post is also a terrible idea.
