your terrible ideas

A phone that unfailingly shreds any pocket you try to stuff it into.

Posting recordings of Bach cantatas to youtube under incorrect, fake German titles that include the word "Bieber"

BWV 742: Gottes Meine Bieber Freunde

BWV 139: Ich Bin Von Bieber Nicht Mitte Jesu

Again, this is the thread for terrible ideas.

The idea of these videos just gradually proliferating across youtube until they dominate all Bach cantata content is really getting me, especially the image of confused Bach fans and scholars commenting that the titles appear to be incorrect

BWV 72: Widergest eine Bieber, zehr geist vom zu kirchejahr

Or Bieber fans who become Bach fans thanks to these videos and disseminate these incorrect titles far and wide.

I posted some tv show opening credits with the wrong theme tunes (without labeling them as such) a few years back, it seemed to make people furious, which was the intended effect tbh.

There are many 'terrible' ideas along these lines that I would gleefully undertake if we weren't, as a society, at an all-time credulity peak and if this, our reality, weren't so close to disintegrating altogether as a result.

In phase 2, I would post videos of myself in professorial garb at a lectern, delivering plagiarized lectures on bach cantatas that sub in the "bieberized" titles

I love this -- are they still up?

Here is the only one I can find

HAHAHA

I feel like the Sanford and Son theme would be great for a lot of them. Maybe every show with the Sanford and Son theme.

My gf a couple years back made me two t-shirts for my birthday: one with a picture of the Monkees under the Air Supply logo, and one with just Nesmith and Dolenz labeled as Hall and Oates. So speaking as an idiot who finds this like the apex of comedy, I salute you.

Yessssssss. I knew of another site like that but I think they got shut down. Probably for being geniuses.

Not my terrible idea, but someone has made real the terrible idea of a superbright bicycle headlight that strobes.

The Music Man made as a movie musical where it's brought into the 21st century, and Henry Hill comes to a small impoverished American town to teach a group of misfit young kids how to mumble rap.

A couple of days ago I tried putting Golden Syrup on cheese & onion crisps. I thought that the sweet and savoury flavours might work together, but instead they cancelled each other out somehow and the result tasted slightly sweet with a hint of potato/cardboard and nothing else.

Golden Syrup on Salt & Vinegar crisps surprisingly good however.

Good for you, you kept on going.

dystopian novel set in future american civil war where both sides are being financially backed by tv channels making reality shows

both channels turn out to be owned by the same company

or something like that

How about the same premise, except it's the actual American Civil War of the 1860s.

"General Johnston, you've been eliminated."

"General Sickles, you have immunity, so you will continue to the next round, but I'm gonna need that leg."

a law that allows adults with braces to skip airport security. clearly, they plan to be alive for awhile.

An advert for Bisto gravy that uses Ottowan's 'DISCO' for the music, and it's set in a recreation of Studio 54. Except people on the dancefloor are smearing themselves in gravy and snorting gravy powder like cocaine etc..

here is my terrible idea:

an underwear line made up entirely of thongs silkscreened with Bloomberg's face

Do you mean garments upon which Bloomberg's visage has been applied via silkscreen or do you mean that someone has removed Bloomberg's face and is using it to silkscreen garments

I think like the Turin shroud

removing Bloomberg's face is not a terrible idea

This is not my terrible idea but WOW is it terrible

I should get those

will the onion one make you cry?

A cheese scented candle?!

Isn't that just a block of cheese with a candle wick in it?

Better or worse than the Gwyneth Paltrow vagina-scented candle?

Wait

WHAT

xp depends which of the McD's candles it smells most like

A real (combined) McDonald's scented candle would just smell of warm cardboard.

'Oh no no no, that wasn't me, it was my six McDonalds Quarter Pounder candles.' (quickly + surreptitiously lights candles)

mh, report to the penalty box (which smells like- no, I can't finish that joke)

a stage play in the style of Frost/Nixon (I have not seen it, just going off what I know of the concept) called Trump/Clinton

it's all about the prep of Clinton going into the debates, how she decides to frame her arguments as if she's lecturing a small child on how he can't be president, and the script lingers way too long on moments where she's directly speaking to an audience with him creepily leering over her shoulder

there's a self-insert scene where it pans out to me watching on my couch, drinking heavily, and mumbling about how she debated the guy she had to defeat to get in the NY senate more effectively

then there's a recreation of that guy, and he's played by Mickey Mouse, who he sounded like

Quid Pro Quo - a Status Quo tribute band who are not very good, but it only costs £1 to see them.

haha

Lol
