your terrible ideas

i thought it would be great an edgy brooklyn gallery! you know, like, transgressive sexuality & the mainstream appeal of defacing the body. or something.

you have to go for that obsessive all-over-composition style in the installation ... also you need typewritten descriptions of the context for each photo

make the stamp say something edgy like "FEMINISM" or "ART" or something

the images will be titled with the content of the stamp.

for example:
daisies no. 2
chinese character nos. 1-3

maybe you can install them onto a traced map of your city, with push pins, and place them in the locations where the people live or were photographed, and it could be a commentary on gentrification or routes travelled.

I'm trying to combine all the edgy art trends I can think of ...

I think a pretty funny tramp stamp would be a second asshole

idk I've actually been pretty impressed with yr writing. Honestly.

u drunk

Nope and I still stand by that statement.

"dunk hunt"

20-something. momus hosts a cooking show called "cumin in a girl's mouth"

Freak out the receptionist at work.

Sorry John, but I like to freak you out

This thread reminds me of a scene from Office Space:

TOM: You know there are people in this world who don't have to put up with all this shit? Like that guy that invented the pet rock. You see, that's what you have to do. You have to use your mind and come up with some really great idea like that and you never have to work again!

MICHAEL (with resigned, but obvious, disgust): You think the pet rock was a really great idea?

TOM: Sure it was. The guy made a million dollars!

The confident, oblivious way Tom answers Michael Bolton always makes me smile.

Staying on to train my replacement.

tbf is that YOUR terrible idea, or the terrible idea of the management?

you had better tell him about the hardline no homophobes policy.

my terrible idea. i haven't actually suggested it to anyone as they don't even know i'm leaving yet, but i'm considering it. means my two weeks notice would maybe be extended by one week.

Is it the kind of place, where if you concede to doing that, they could be nice and let you collect unemployment?

Blind Items...OF THE FUTURE

this yoga place here in the DC area had the terrible idea to send around a halloween promo email that says HAPPY YOGA'WEEN

at first I was like.. what! they are starting a yoga class with only music from WEEN? sadly, they aren't

lol yoga'ween is utterly ridiculous.

my current terrible idea is crushing on a woman fifteen years older than me.

i'm sure she'd be flattered

yeah, i'd rather get some snuggling tbh.

i always joked that since my last two relationship fell apart when the lady turned thirty, i really wanted to try dating someone on the cusp of 40; this lady is 39. sigh.

be careful.

well, yeah.

I saw a sticker on a car today that looked like a rastafied Motorhead logo and thought it might have said "Märleyhead". If this hasn't been done it would be a pretty terrible idea for a cover band - play the Bob songs Lemmy style and the Lemmy songs Bob style.

redemption song still the show stopper.

i would go out of morbid curiosity

which may or may not be a terrible idea in itself

want to open up a french fry shop in moscow called 'vladimir poutine'

that is not a terrible idea, it's a TERRIFIC idea!

A brokerage or real-estate office where liberals who live in red states and conservatives who live in godless heathen liberal areas can just swap properties -- yea or nay?

conservatives don't surrender ime

darraghmac, just imagine that I came out with a new "translation" of the Tain bo Cuailnge where Cuchullain had a little kid helper always quick with a current-to-the-times wisecrack, and the name of the character was like "Moomoollin'"

now animate that

then did a google search and oh god why

why why why

I want to make a movie about a british politician who goes vegan and the hilarious fallout that occurs afterwards, it will be called "soy tory"

TV show about a nerdy Jewish mathematician living in NYC called "Seinwave"

(inspired by cruts post on wolf thread)

quit job, start a noise band

call it dale earnhardt jr jr jr

your noise band could open for conceptual joke noise band #4 of mine named: I Love You But My Panda Is Gay

^^ merch would consist of different colored hankies with one panda mounting the other from behind as the pattern

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.

lol exactly, see thread title

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

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.

Golf umbrella javelin. Just like regular javelin, but with a golf umbrella instead of a javelin.

Instead of releasing these £200 expanded box sets, they should rerelease classic albums with a bunch of tracks missing and/or faded out early and sell then for like £8. I mean, who's got the time and/or money these days ya know?

the irregular underwear of music

or the box sets could be reliced and made to look like they were stolen from Target, missing 7 of the 8 LPs, liner notes have been encrusted with a true-to-life snot stain and "weed" crumbles. this would obviously make them more expensive, though, not less

Two chocolate bars that combine the top and bottom halves of a Snickers and a Double Decker. 'Dickers' = the peanuts & caramel top of the Snickers combined with the biscuit-crispy bottom of the Double Decker. So called because that's what you'll say when inevitably bits of it get stuck in/between your teeth/filling. 'Milky Why?' = the nougat half of both bars.

I tried this out this afternoon and it is indeed a terrible idea. The 'Milky Why?' has an interesting flavour, being comprised of two different chocolates and two different nougats. But without the biscuit base of the Double Decker, that nougat almost has the texture of cheap bubblegum. I was left chewing for a while. The 'Dickers' manages to be even worse. I correctly predicted the dental hazard of this combination but the texture and flavour I didn't expect. It was like eating a piece of coarsely crumbling tarmac coated in chocolate, and there was a strong aftertaste of burnt caramel and peanuts.

I misread something last night as Da Vinci Donuts, then decided that a great name for a donut chain would be Masterpiece Donuts
