every time you post, you get a pop-up that asks if you want to be entered into a random sweepstakes. you can say "no", but if you say yes, you're entered into a monthly contest, and the main prize is that you gain the ability to create a new secret board. There are also 'whammy' gifts like having your nickname changed to Becky Lucas for a month, having all of your posts converted to WingDings, have a chemical truck ran through your house....

A sitcom set in an abattoir. The workers go through typical sitcom storylines while industrial massacre takes place around them.

A mandatory set of glove-like grips on all steering wheels into which you must slip the fingers of at least one hand while driving on an interstate. An attendant monitoring system allows you to tap your brake a total of...let's say three times before the precision blades inside the steering wheel engage and the fingers start coming off. Perhaps the grips can be modified to respond to a variety of dickhole automotive moves but this is all they're programmed for atm.

(NB: I only think this idea is terrible because of the mutilation involved. And even so I don't actually think it's all that terrible.)

divorce reveal parties. everyone gathers around a cake to see if you are getting a divorce or not.

So dinner parties then

yes, but with cake color correlation

or maybe there's just raw hamburger meat inside if the thing is happening

no, the cake is always filled with beef. you modulate the fat content of the beef to indicate divorce. 90/10 means "the beef is lean in this marriage. things are going well." 80/20 means "there's fat beef between us rn, and we are divorcing."

lol

Maybe if no divorce it's an actual cake, if yes divorce it's just that ugly goddamn sweater your awful mother bought for me, wadded up and slathered in icing.

Pizza is Really Yummy for Me (Old Lunch), Tuesday, 14 January 2020 17:52 (four years ago) link

you'd have to weigh a clump of the meat and render the fat in a george foreman grill to weigh out the answer from the drip pan, which would add to the suspense.

How about just a gender reveal party where you reveal that you're actually getting divorced. And of course you have to do it like on a boat or something where people just have to sit and be deeply uncomfortable for another 4-6 hours.

Pizza is Really Yummy for Me (Old Lunch), Tuesday, 14 January 2020 17:55 (four years ago) link

And of course you are actually still bringing a child into a soon to be broken home, and you just kinda offhandedly mention the baby's gender at some point in hour three.

Pizza is Really Yummy for Me (Old Lunch), Tuesday, 14 January 2020 17:57 (four years ago) link

at m night shyamalan's gender reveal party, the color of the cake is a red herring. he reveals to guests that it was the boat color all along that revealed the baby's gender. (he shouts this to leaving guests through sobs, as he's also just been divorced).

also, the boat captain is satan and the baby is immortal

A rig where your dental hygienist wears a small point of view camera while working on you and you wear VR goggles so that you can see what she sees while it’s happening to you.

a new game called "Storytellers". One player picks a card, which has an occupation printed on it. That player must say 3 descriptive sentences about that occupation that are definitely true, but are vague enough that it's difficult to tell what exactly the occupation is. The fourth sentence is always "So really, I guess you could say that I'm a storyteller." If someone guesses the occupation correctly, they get a point. If nobody guesses correctly, the storyteller gets the point. The first to five points wins, and so really, I guess you could say that they're a storyteller.

a player at 4 points, i.e. close to winning, is said to be "in the garage." when a player wins, they press a button on a little plastic speaker attached to the plastic cards receptacle and some generic blues guitar riffs play for 30 seconds.

this seems like it would be a basically acceptable/popular party game tbh

Okay so I just got a Bosch dishwasher and I think it would be fun if every time I opened it, there were a different hellish scene of ridiculously willowy demons, some with six faces, some with trumpets in their butts, and some that are chewing on each other.

Ad campaign: with a Hieronymus Bosch dishwasher, you never know what you'll see.

Yeets don't fail me now (Ye Mad Puffin), Thursday, 16 January 2020 02:56 (four years ago) link

Get outta here with that brilliant idea, terrible ideas only. To wit, I have piles of laundry to do and a laundry room that's too far away. My eyes wander over to the dishwasher... but no, surely that's mad! Yet my gaze still lingers.

This is a vintage terrible idea, but my memory was jogged after seeing a Grunt Style shirt yesterday. When I was a teenager in the early 1990s, I got the idea to start a political t-shirt company. I was inspired by Michael Stipe wearing all those different t-shirts at the MTV awards.

https://s.yimg.com/ny/api/res/1.2/3gaOVVxTQuo98XVvi0v_FA--~A/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjtzbT0xO3c9NjAwO2g9MzY1O2lsPXBsYW5l/https://67.media.tumblr.com/a694840f2e260e19ad0f658840a446c4/tumblr_inline_ocfe4ox6os1tdqyd7_1280.jpg

I felt like these were a step in the right direction, but I wanted to see something that captured my anger more (I can't remember any of my proposed slogans, thank god) and with graphics that were more stylized, like skateboard shirts. So the name of my company was going to be Bold Statements Wear, with the logo being a "B.S." on the sleeve.

nah, man. he's raising awareness of the rainforest. prior to that shirt, I was unaware of the existence of rainforest.

I want a line of t-shirts like that but it's more confident in its approach. all nouns, but followed with periods.

RAINFOREST.

But the text must be positioned such that it's still visible when the wearer is defiantly crossing their arms as if they were in the opening credits of a reality competition show.

A Quantum Leap-esque series wherein the protagonist is tasked with making things super awkward for entertainers of the past by confronting them with their discordant future works. Like going to the Haight during a Jefferson Airplane gig and playing 'Hearts' for all assembled, that sort of thing.

Had a dream about this one just before I woke up: introducing Presimalgams, He-Man-esque action figures that mash up US presidents. Imagine a combination of Millard Fillmore and Grover Cleveland, or George W. Bush and Grover Cleveland. The possibilities are basically limitless.
