Line Up Hair Stencil Helmets

Invention, Business Idea, 3D PrintingTravis TehlirianComment

Idea: Stencils to help people "line up" or "shape up" their own hair using hair clippers. The hair stencils would wrap around/over your head so you can't misposition them. They'd be designed to precisely fit your specific head by using a scanned 3D image of your head. Also: misunderstanding the word "hairline", the social consequences of messing up your line up, stencils for shaping your beard

Deadly Escape Room

Evil, Event or Activity, NSFW, Silliness, TV ShowJason AltComment

Idea: Escape rooms with real danger, like the movie Saw, which are possibly televised. Also: a more intense corporate team-building exercise or test of character for engaged couples, white-collar criminals tend to be smarter than regular criminals and thus would be funner to watch in a Saw-like escape room, wondering why there aren't any recreational drugs that are taken using acupuncture needles

Criminal Execution Death Games

Evil, TV Show, NSFWKurt BrownComment

Idea: To create a TV show where the worst repeat-offender unrehabilitatable criminals (murderers, pedophiles, etc.) either compete for their survival, or are left alone to fend for themselves and try to survive. Also: it might accidentally encourage lesser criminals to commit worse crimes to be on TV, movies with a similar premise (Hunger Games, Death Race, The Running Man, etc.), fencing off states to be massive prison colonies like the George Carlin comedy bit, selling the "prisoner inventions" that the prison colonists invent while trying to survive

Blocking Cell Phone Signals While Driving

Cars, Politics and Social Issue, TechKurt BrownComment

Idea: Cars that disable your cell phone while you're driving, so you don't cause a car accident trying to text or use the phone. Also: using a breathalyzer while driving at full speed; if cars blocked cell phones, idiots would try to use their phone by holding it out the window, causing them to lose their arms in car accidents or by hitting tree branches, making the US look like Sierra Leone

Doorless Fridge with Tech Gadgets

Environmentalism, Food, Futuristic, Invention, TechTom WalmaComment

Idea: A doorless refrigerator which consists of several standard-sized drawers which can each be plug-and-play gadgets, such as a drone-compatible can dispenser, an eco-friendly super-insulated drawer, a refrigerator-cooled high-speed computer, a body cooling rubber snuggie inflator, etc. Also: the refrigerator door is an enemy of technological progress, you'd only need to pay for the electricity to cool the subset of refrigerator drawers that you're actually using, mini-fridges with fewer drawers for tiny houses and dorms

Robot Fish for Scuba and Underwater Theme Parks

Event or Activity, Futuristic, Robots, SciFi, TechTom WalmaComment

Idea: To put fake robot fish in the ocean for scuba-divers and snorkelers to look at to compensate for the real fish that are dying off, and to create underwater theme parks to scuba-dive through such as Atlantis, haunted sunken pirate ship, Little Mermaid, scuba through the human body, etc. Also: mistaking a real shark for a robotic shark, a VR-headset scuba mask in an empty pool, "The best way I can describe the experience of snorkeling is 'a shared unspoken conspiracy of fake positivity' because everybody can see that the ocean is mostly dead"

God Gun

Tech, Futuristic, SciFiAustin GosnellComment

Idea: A radar gun that gives you info about whoever you point it at, such as how smart they are, how honest they are, and how moral they are. And also blow them away if they aren't moral enough for you. Also: "gaydar" and hypocritical anti-gay activists, how to create the "god gun" using facial recognition, EEG machines, mass surveillance databases, and lasers

Your Friend's Baby And You

Book, Parenting, SillinessGimmy CiprianoComment

Idea: A book of advice for adults who have no idea how to act around babies that their married friends are having. First chapter: don't touch it. Also: "baby-talk" advice, mind-tricks to talk a friend out of giving their baby a horrible name, when it's okay to swear around a baby or young kid, racism and sexism in babies

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

AI Job Search Assistant

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)

Elderly Parent Shopping Cart Seats

Invention, SillinessChris YoungComment

Idea: Shopping carts which have seats for your elderly parents, a built-in PA system, and a shock collar to keep your elderly parents from wandering too far from the cart. Also: picking up your elderly parents to put them in the cart

Drone Hot Dog Stand

Food, Drones, Futuristic, Business IdeaTom WalmaComment

Idea: To use drones to deliver food from a single food stand to multiple nearby locations in a place where lots of people are spread out, such as a park containing several small picnic areas. Also: ordering food while in line at an amusement park, ordering different food genres from different nearby food stands at a festival, food-carrying drones getting attacked by birds (and possible countermeasures), eating crickets and giant God cows

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
