Fart-Catching Underwear

Silliness, NSFWSai DComment

Idea: Underwear which captures farts and releases them on demand, which is a silly idea that might help save the world from global warming. Also: getting out of boring work tasks, holding farts to be released later during police pat-downs, catching and bottling fart bubbles when in a bathtub or when wearing fishtank pants

Spheres-Are-Us and Death Contracts

Silliness, PrankJoey DerderianComment

Two idea: 1) Two sharp blades connected by a pivot point and used to cut paper, 2) house payment contracts which are meant to be paid until you die. Also: totally-not-invented-before ideas, the origins of the word "mortgage", quitting a job out of moral principle

Oceanic Voice Cancellation

Silliness, TechBranden MilskComment

Idea: Voice cancellation where a person's voice is replaced by the soothing sounds of the ocean. Also: it'd make you more likeable if you're an annoying person, the best way to get fired, ruining ocean vacations

Idea: A home renovation reality show where they build BDSM "dungeons" and deal with drama such as cost trade-offs, the structural support required to mount equipment on the walls or hang it from the ceiling, prudish contractors, etc. The idea is to be a parody of HDTV reality shows. Also: tiger cages, customized equipment for the obese, the "Silence of the Lambs" pit, a room full of dirty glass coffee tables

Politics and Social Issue, SillinessKevin KeyComment

Idea: A conspiracy theory that Donald Trump and Drake are the same person, because Drake songs sound kind of like Trump speeches. Also: an impression of Trump singing a Drake song, questioning whether Trump is a reptilian, questioning whether successful draft-dodging makes you smart and if you'd dodge the draft

Idea: Strip clubs which keep prices low by using old men wearing sweaters as strippers. Also: "lemon party", the smell of incontinent old men wearing sweaters and profusely sweating, giving the old men poor tips as revenge because they don't understand money and only gave you 25 cents to mow their lawn

Single-Day Presidential Campaigns

Silliness, Politics and Social IssueJoel FragomeniComment

Idea: A presidential election where the candidates aren't announced until the day before the election. Also: debates don't matter because they aren't really debates anyway.

50 Shades of Rainbow

Idea (NSFW): a TV show like Reading Rainbow but for fan-fiction. Also: it would drive LeVar Burton insane, maybe the authors of the creepy perverted fan fiction were on Reading Rainbow as kids and it somehow corrupted them
