i.e. Jeffery Dahmer

Great idea, btw.

Also good, probably has been proposed in a meeting before but possibly shot down. I don't know how cost effective it would be to manufacture and package this. I'll bet coffee filters are super cheap to produce the way they are now (which has probably the way its been for over a 100 years) and to fuck with this probably wouldn't be worth it to the current coffee filter high-rollers.

I googled "Miss fortune cookie" and it seems someone else thought of it too.

I thought of it ten years ago and actually called around to wholesale fortune cookie companies. But never acted on it. Wonder if the guy I found made any money. I think it could go either way.

I won't have to worry about anyone beating me to my idea.
It alerts you whenever a Perdue® Perfect Portions™ ad comes on television.



I call it the Perdue® Perfect Portions™ Alert Device.
The kids on the street call it the PPPad or Stutter Chicken.

I had the idea for sharing music over the computer before napster ever happened.

I was also bummed when I found out that there was a special beard shampoo on the market, but I have some ideas for improvement...

A phenomenon that hasn't yet taken place. The idea, and eventual campaign, for Kevin Spacey's asexuality.

You never hear of anyone being asexual. Someone has to be - They're out there. I think it's Kevin Spacey.

There would be T-Shirts, buttons, bumper stickers, internet banners...

Just something like:

"Kevin Spacey is asexual"


It's exactly the kind of bullshit that really thrives these days. Particularly on the internet. I'd make millions.

It did fail though, so Im happy I didnt follow through with it.

I don't know where you live, but here popcorn chicken was a massive success.

shoes that look like feet, that was my idea

I've just realised that it may seem like the above is not in the the spirit of this thread, in that no one has beaten me to it. Wait. I just planted the seed.


You remember when John O'Connor sent Kyle Reese (HIS FATHER!) back in time to protect his mother from the Terminator...

Books about music written like a music "journalist" with hyperbole and rockist-style writing. Every time I think of one, I find out that it was already written.

Post-punk/new-wave after 1977 but before 1985? "Rip It Up And Start Again."

American Hardcore and its indie rock off-shoots? "Our Band Could Be Your Life" (which is odd, Azerrad doesn't mention Shellac at all at the end of the Big Black chapter).

Punk in general? "Please Kill Me."

I have come up with a book idea though, and so far I haven't seen it written yet. We'll see.
