your terrible ideas

xpost i thought the same! seems fun on the amelia bedilia level, which entertained me endlessly as a kid and which, as an adult, i still think is pretty funny

I also really like that book idea

yeah, we actually thought of Amelia Bedelia when we were talking about it, but picturing a guy, boyish looking 20-something maybe.

I swear to god if Adult Swim steals this idea too...

My daughter and I had this discussion about that moment the crosswalk guard is holding up his stop sign in the middle of the crosswalk after the students have successfully crossed to the other side. Kind of a Fight Club / Monster at the End of the Book idea.

Today the thought of Bublé T made me laugh, and then somehow my partner mentioned Boboli pizzas, and I started thinking to myself, "Boboli Tea— a take and bake pizza and bubble tea joint"

my brother swore that the name shouted at the beginning of Whoomp! There It Is was "Steve Boboli" instead of "Steve Rollin", feel like the pizza chain missed out on a tie-in commercial

pull the pizza out of the oven, yell "WHOOMP! THERE IT IS!"

BYOB - Bring Your Own Boboli. The shop just has sauce, cheese, and an oven. There is no good reason for this whatsoever.

wait so I could make a pizza with whatever I bring in, even if it's not bread/crust?

A police procedural show that is utterly deadpan but it's about parking violations and other minor crimes

Law & Order: Recently Expired Tags Unit

CSI: Parking Violations

I belive in abolishing the police except for parking violations

tbf the most egregious parking violators in NYC are the police, so it could be a dark Line of Duty-style show, but strictly about parking violations

A&E already has Parking Wars, if "reality" shows count.

Scoff it.

parking wars is pretty much the worst of humanity on display, just super cringeful tv

it gets kinda ummmm “kafkaesue” at times when it’s like some person having to run back and forth from the dmv to the towing place and shit

one of those "pay in 4 interest free payment" companies, but you only get the portion of the product you've currently paid for.

so if the concert u paid for comes around and you only paid 50%, you are asked to leave midway through. if you've only paid for 25% of your groceries, they give you that 25%, hold onto the other 75% and release them to you as you make the payments. by then they are all moldy

1/4 wedge of each grocery item

a jar of pickles sliced into fourths

one quarter of a raw egg, x12

That reminds me, every so often I have the terrible idea of marketing existing food products but at 103% of their usual size to account for what you can't get out of the jar/can etc.
So baked beans with an extra teaspoonful in there because you can't get every drop of sauce out, same for ketchup etc etc

so if the concert u paid for comes around and you only paid 50%, you are asked to leave midway through.

Or you have to wear special headphones that only include the bassist and the drummer, and you're made to wear an eyepatch over one eye.

If I was Jeff Bezos I'd pay to make shot for shot remakes of every episode of old sitcoms, but one of the characters would be played by me (Jeff Bezos). So you'd make a shot for shot remake of every episode of Third Rock From The Sun for example, but instead of French Stewart it would be Jeff Bezos. It wouldn't always have to be one of the main characters either, you could remake Cheers but with Jeff Bezos playing Al.

it surprises me that there is no tech billionaire who has paid to make a shot for shot remake of e.g. Star Wars, with themselves playing Han Solo or something. You'd think there must be some overlap on the Venn diagram of people who want to do that and who can afford to do that. Maybe someone has, but they just haven't publicised it, it's just something they watch in private on their own.

That idea owes something to Johnny LaRue's Fish Flakes and Frosted Fish Flakes.

Lol at Johnny LaRue!

I loved it when he did the science show and hadn't fully woken up yet so he told the boy "make me some coffee, kid, and learn about combustion."
