I don't think your idea counts as a terrible idea, LL. It sounds pretty great to me!

btw I do not quite believe in that Mother Sky breakdancing, LL. seems more like an aerobics jam, unlike Vitamin C

I don't think it's a terrible idea either, but it's my guess that most people would not want to do a 15 min aerobic dance routine. OR WOULD THEY?!
The breakdancing was just this noodly little kid -- there was no Can whatsoever. It was a red herring.

The Popepoopmobile. Basically the same as a Popemobile, but with blacked out windows. Say that the Pope is out in the Popemobile, and suddenly needs to poop? No problem! Simply bring out the Popepoopmobile, reverse it so it's back to back with the Popemobile, and open the doors. The Pope can move from the Popemobile to the Popepoopmobile, which includes a toilet, do his business, then move back to the Popemobile and carry on waving to the crowds.

I once had an idea -- one I thought was clever at the time -- to name a band "The Varieties" after William James' "The Varities of Religious Experience" (and as a nod to the name The Doors as tribute to "The Doors of Perception"). I think this was a genuinely terrible idea, and not just in a funny way.

fantasy sex league
10-12 participants draft a set of personality traits, settings, music, sex moves, etc. for example, if you have the first round pick you might select the most charming/sexy partner, but later in the draft you're biting yourself because the only soundtrack left is smash mouth's "walking on the sun". or you just use up an early pick on great abs, but you're dismayed when later in the draft you realize that you have to select a knee (?!?) and the only knee left is completely fucked up, like backwards with the bone sticking out.
anyway, when the draft is over, the resulting combinations for each participants are rendered and displayed in a manner that kind of looks like this - http://www.foddy.net/Athletics.html - only it's sex instead.
