Health Care for Aliens

SciFi, SillinessAvery SommerfeldComment

Idea: To provide free health care to space aliens, and also pay them money, so they don't eat us. Also: "It sounds like you're putting a positive spin on us being their slaves", maybe bald aliens travel the universe because hairy aliens' spaceships would fill with hair after 1000s of years of haircuts, maybe people see politicians as "reptilians" because humans never instinctually got used to seeing wrinkly-skinned people (who look like snakes shedding their skin) because we used to die before we could get old enough to have snake-like wrinkly skin

Drone Tarzan

Drones, Futuristic, Silliness, TV Show, TechTom WalmaComment

Idea: To use drones to help you swing through the trees like Tarzan by performing tasks such as helping you build platforms, attaching ropes, transporting piles of leaves to use for padding, resetting the ropes back into swinging position after each stunt, adjusting the position of the ropes as you're flying through the air so you don't miss them and fall to the ground, and filming the stunts for YouTube. Also: other stunts such as ziplines, waterslides, trapeze swings, and catapults; an elaborate Rube-Goldberg machine that results in you breaking your ankle, using a live alligator instead of an inner tube on a waterslide

Truman Show Prank

TV Show, Prank, EvilJosh BowabComment

Idea: To prank someone into thinking they're a star of a hidden-camera reality TV show, similar to the Jim Carrey movie "The Truman Show". Also: When you're a weird person, you sometimes think that you're being "Truman Show'd", using VR to "Truman Show" someone, using VR porn as a weapon to get people to injure themselves by kinking their necks trying to see the action

App, Business IdeaDavid SutherlandComment

Idea: An app which uses AI to help you find a job, including creating resumes and cover letters, deciding which job is the best match (good match for your skills, good social groups, not racist), helping you prepare for interviews, etc. Also: budtenders, extremely short resumes, the national food for racism (boiled goose)

Phone Numbers as License Plate Numbers

Cars, SillinessDavid WellfareComment

Idea: To use people's phone numbers as their license plate numbers, so if another driver ticks you off, you can call them in rage. Also: nitpicking a joke, stealing someone's license plate and joyriding to cause their phone to ring incessantly, mistaking a Michigan State "SPARTY" license plate as "SPORTY", car roof holograms

Assfa

NSFW, Silliness, InventionDavid WellfareComment

Idea: A rigid banana-shaped luffa holder which obese people can stick to the bathroom wall to use to wash their back, so they don't have to reach around their body and risk getting muscle cramps. Also: other possible uses for such a device, the least American thing ever

Valet Simulator Videogame

Cars, Event or ActivityJon RuggieroComment

Idea: A silly, over-the-top "valet simulator" videogame, similar in spirit to Paperboy, where you have to dodge obstacles, fight off dragons, perform reckless driving maneuvers, etc. and still return the car to the owner with minimal damage. Also: the odd trend of videogames based on boring jobs, tipping the hospital valet, tipping driverless cars, accidentally leaving stuff in the car like guns, babies, or both a gun and a baby

Work Spouse Ring

ClothingChris YoungComment

Idea: A ring to give to a "work spouse", i.e. a close friend at work who provides emotional support and helps you with your real marriage. Also: work relationships being easier than marriages because they're limited to 8 hours per day

Beach Hot Dog Stand

Food, Business IdeaMike BallComment

Idea: A small business selling hot dogs on the beach. Also: pot dogs; if it's a nude beach, would the hot dogs have a bun?; picking on the idea a little too much by saying that the hot dogs would get covered by sand, sweat, seagull poop, and flakes of sun-burnt skin

Pedophile Brain Scans

Futuristic, Silliness, Tech, Politics and Social IssueAndrew YangComment

Idea: Brain scanning of pedophiles and other criminals to check for and remove brain tumors which might be causing their criminal impulses. Also: a supervillain injecting brain tumors to cause criminal impulses, giving kids chemotherapy guns to protect them from the zombie-like brain tumor criminals, fine-tuning the pedophile-causing brain tumors to make everybody attracted to you instead

Bro Sportscasters

SportsMarkus OlindComment

Idea: Sports broadcasters who act like normal sports fans who drink, curse, and scream in excitement. Also: drunk guy "facts" instead of nerdy sports encyclopedia stats, announcers rooting for a specific team if they want to, Joe Rogan's fight companions but for the NFL, using codenames for teams and players if the NFL won't allow you to act as a sportscaster on a livestream on the Internet
