only worth it if paired with a trolly experiment at a metal show where dude walks by and waits for people to brag that they saw that band on their first tour or own their first demo and then expose them as posers on camera.

the show could be called

A Twitter account or blog or something, slowly telling the story of an alternate universe in which the WWF's "Rock 'n' Wrestling Connection" was instead the "Jazz 'n' Wrestling Connection". This is based entirely around the idea that Keith Jarrett vs. Chick Corea would be a great Intercontinental Title feud.

Picturing a much different version of Herbie Hancock's 'Rockit' video rn

Have always entertained the idea of the "Rockit" video remade with live actors –– except for a mannequin playing Herbie's part.

i have a strange affection for the kind of jobs that a kid would be interested in. railroad engineer. tugboat captain (i believe "master of towing" is the title) and will actively look into how i would go about getting those jobs, and then never pursue them. i could be using that time to look for realistic ways to advance in my current field of work but don't

this is a real terrible idea, but it hasn't happened yet

eventually, the "expanded universes" of star wars / marvel et al will become so expanded that it will be viable for everyone on earth to "live" there through VR or the matrix or whatever. the star wars real world will be filled with NPCs to talk to and beautiful locations, as well "living storylines" of empire/rebellion factions. literally everyone on earth will be somewhere in the star wars world, several generations departed from earth.

My hs gf lived in a development where, I shit you not, all the street names were named after shoe brands (Nike, Reebok, etc.). So anything is possible in that realm, even ideas much more terrible than your own.

Interestingly, this is similar to the bad idea I had this morning, which is remaking Breaking Bad entirely from Skyler's perspective. Now I know some of you may be thinking 'oh, that could actually be a good idea if it were executed properly' but hear me out: I'm talking here about remaking the entire series very improperly and showing, episode-by-episode, what Skyler was up to while her husband was off being a maniac. So like the bottle episode in the meth lab will just be like Skyler grocery shopping or reading a book or whatever.

That episode where she gives birth while Walt is MIA would be an emotional tour de force, total Emmy bait

I want to design one of those baby "activity centers" like this one:

but instead make it like a DJ booth with little spinning records and buttons that make airhorn sounds.

I know that you can buy decals of bullet holes and key scratches to temporarily make a nice car look like a beater, so as (presumably) to avoid being a tempting target for vandals. Or to make yourself look like a badass.
