A while ago I was toying with the idea of starting a thread called "did you even read the article?" in which I would document a year spent replying at random to comments on articles shared on Facebook with the single post "did you even read the article?"

Last night I conceived a sort of "parking porn" blog or instagram account called "Good Parking," where people submit pictures whenever they find a really good parking space. Sometimes it would be obvious why the parking was good, e.g. you'd be able to see the strip mall storefronts in the shot just steps away from the car, but in other cases it would just be a picture of a car in a street parking spot with the caption "Two blocks from metropolitan museum of art on a Saturday" or something like that.

seems like it could catch on as a pointless but mildly amusing hashtag-type idea rather than a blog but maybe the instagram helps get the hashtag going. i would say #powerofpositiveparking but that just revives my frustrations from Let's help each other identify books we dimly remember reading as kids

a little harness you put on your cat that lets you manipulate all four of their limbs to make them dance

Karl Malone, Thursday, 7 December 2017 18:53 (eight years ago)

um, clearly a winner product idea, not terrible

IF (Terrorist) Yes, Explain (man alive), Thursday, 7 December 2017 18:54 (eight years ago)

holding and waving the front paws in the air is just not enough

mh, Thursday, 7 December 2017 18:56 (eight years ago)

if doing something that causes discomfort to one being (the cat in this case) also brings joy to literally everyone else, is it worth doing? is there some sort of decision-point tradeoff line? if it only brings joy to 5 people but discomfort to 1, is it less defensible than it brought joy to 5000? just want to have my arguments ready in case i'm ever discussing this with my cat

Karl Malone, Thursday, 7 December 2017 18:56 (eight years ago)

I apologized to my cat aloud after I had the idea because I felt he could sense my inner cruelty

mh, Thursday, 7 December 2017 18:57 (eight years ago)

for cats this product might find a market. suggest the same for dogs and you'd be chased out of the country. i think i have found my cause.

Dogs limbs not as innately dancey tbf

remember the lmao (darraghmac), Thursday, 7 December 2017 19:01 (eight years ago)

exactly. that can be part of the argument to the cat, or the pep talk before the performance

"you were born for this"

"now stretch those paws out and dance"

Karl Malone, Thursday, 7 December 2017 19:04 (eight years ago)

treat cats with some respect, it's not like they're chickens

fuiud, mac (rip van wanko), Thursday, 7 December 2017 19:08 (eight years ago)

chickens would dance if they had even 1% of the raw ability of cats. but they don't have it. and you do. < another talking point for the pep talk

I held off posting that for a couple weeks! Now that I know there's a market for my bad ideas I'll stop holding back

some sort of prosthetic head device for dudes who are way pumped up on hgh to use so it doesn’t look like they have tiny noggins

mh, Sunday, 10 December 2017 18:58 (eight years ago)

I think you're on to something. I've always thought that those bodybuilders who have the face of a Home Depot store manager would like the option of making that not happen.

Man, dig on him. He can afford those foot-sock things from the money he makes doing this:

I don’t think he can afford half that shit

Take Big Shaq's song "Man's Not Hot" and overdub bits of Gordon Ramsey yelling at people in "Hells Kitchen".

Shaq: "smoke trees..."
Ramsey: "YOU'VE BURNT IT!!!"

(...)

Shaq: "take off your jacket"
Ramsey: "TAKE YOUR JACKET OFF!!!"

A tricorder attachment for mobile phones aimed at bus users. Is that just dark coloured fabric or has a previous occupant of that seat saturated it with urine? Find out with Buscorder!
