your terrible ideas

great idea. would it be their own famous live albums, or other people's?

"KANSAS presents, one night only...

their rendition of IGGY POP'S Metallic K.O."

Neanderthal have you heard The Residents “cover album” of James Brown’s live at the apollo? They recreate all the ad libs and banter and the introduction etc, very strange sounding of course

oh no but see I knew someone had to have done it!

I really want a t-shirt that says "Ask me about my SHIRT" - does this exist?

I feel like a "Don't ask me about my SHIRT" t-shirt would be better

I'm going to write a book where I dress as a 70s disco habitué and reveal my encounters with rockism in present-day society.

Glam Like Me

Right-winger sets out to write "Gay Like Me"

... ends up publishing "Gay Me".

Wouldn’t “Gay Like Me” imply a person going undercover as gay to see how gay people are treated, and thus not be a right wing idea?

man alive! Hey

the reverse is a book about how someone who was previously intolerant grew to embrace gay culture, called Me Like Gay

Hey YMP!

biopic should be defined ongoing as a film of someone going to the bathroom. biographical films should be called Wikipedia on Film

edible pro audio equipment & medical supplies

a cover of charles lloyd's "TM" but it's about cock and ball torture

A cover version of Billy Joel's 'Allentown' but titled 'Camden Town' and with new lyrics such as:

Well we're waiting here in Camden Town
for the Cool Brittania we never found

for dogs that constantly eat other dogs' shit...

a type of doggy treat that smells and looks like shit, but is actually full of helpful nutrients

Feces Pieces

A coffee place called "Small Bach Roasters." The logo is a tiny J.S. Bach (perhaps with his tininess emphasized by a coffee mug for scale)

Remaster of Ken Burns' "The Civil War" except instead of slow pans across bloody battlefields, A.I. is used to animate Matthew Brady's photos.

Just picturing a sepia three-eared Stonewall Jackson, his mouth fluttering open and closed like a tarp tied too loosely to the back of a pick-up truck.

hahaha, I like that idea

putting tea into an espresso machine to make concentrated shots of extremely strong tea

then you could add water to make it just like normal tea again. this would be called the "teamericano"

There's a dude I follow on instagram who demos all kinds of espresso equipment and sometimes he does weird stuff like putting cocoa in the portafilter or a lemon at the bottom of it. Possible he's tried tea bags.

I've had the sound of this stuck in my head for a week - it's a hip-hop cover of Fast Car in shitty rap-singing (think like 50 Cent singing a hook), but it's completely straight, no changes to the lyrics, done all the way through.

I can hear it and I love it

A Muppet parody of The Bear The Bear is Fozzy. Kermit is Carmy and Miss Piggy calls him Carmy in the same voice she would say “Kermie“.

Off to join the WGA.

next Euros have England be the only team in it.

Commando: Home Alone. Arnold reprises his role as John Matrix in this crossover film. This time the burglars have really picked the wrong house.

somehow that reminds me of an idea i had to develop a mythology where "altered states" is a sequel to "jungle 2 jungle", where the william hurt character leaves academia and goes into the private sector and becomes tim allen

sounds like Lost Highway

A 2024 record by ? and the Mysterians called "58 Years", where the singer details all the horrible life events that have happened to the female subject of the song in the decades since she left him and he recorded "96 Tears"

Commando: Home Alone. Arnold reprises his role as John Matrix in this crossover film. This time the burglars have really picked the wrong house.

I would prefer if John Matrix were the one trying to get into the house, like maybe he put the wrong address in google maps for where his kidnapped daughter is being held.

I was amusing myself today imagining a guy who unironically refers to his toes as "The Wolf Pack"

Ha!

need to get these puppies outta my boots before they start to hoooowl

haha what thread?

rejected JBR screen names

Godzilla Minus One, a Jazz play along record.

Read that as Godzilla Mingus One

Someone else's terrible idea - a keyring for your car keys that's a miniature of your car's number plate. Terrible because if you lose your keys, whoever picks them up could then find your car and steal it.

a reality television show where they bring on people who are known for telling outlandish tall tales about things that allegedly happen to them to look badass, and then acquaintances of that person who were there when these events happen, with the latter throwing cold water on the cool stories OP was telling and sharing what actually happened.

"one time I stole a car and was chased by the police"

"no actually, you borrowed your mother's car, with permission, and the cops were chasing another vehicle ahead of you and you pulled over"

A jazz band featuring AI generated vocals of the former US Vice President, called Al Gore Rhythms

Yo La Tengo cover band that performs inside a protective plastic bubble, called Noli Me Tangere

public toilets with a handle attached to the flush lever so that you never have to touch the dirty flush lever

But the handle will be dirty

floor mounted flushes that you can step on

I've seen those in trains. Not a terrible idea, but they often don't work.

But the handle will be dirty

lol exactly, see thread title

There is a bucket of disposable, single use handles for people who are concerned about that*

*the handles are sitting in pickle juice

I was thinking, did I once see a pic of Russian public toilets with glass barrier walls, not like the self-cleaning sealed Japanese ones that turn opaque as soon as you shut the door. No, just glass.
