Skin Shirts

An absurd brainstorming session on how to create T-shirts that you can wear for a week or more (because you're too lazy to pick out and/or change your clothes), including making T-shirts out of human skin so you can wear them and wash them while you shower. Also: multi-layered T-shirts where you can remove (or dissolve) the innermost layer which collects sweat before it starts to smell bad; tattooing someone else's skin and then grafting it onto your body (as an additional layer of skin) so you can remove it later and so you don't have to experience the pain of getting a tattoo; a failed prediction on what Nicole's podcast idea would be

Lucky Undy

Idea: Underwear with sports team logos or colors on them to be worn on game nights for luck. Also: making your friend wear your team's underwear on the outside of his pants as a penalty for losing a bet; giving yourself a wedgie to show your team spirit; complementary undies for couples; questioning whether "undy" is a real word or whether it's always plural, i.e. a "pair of undies"

Junk Mail Prevention Service

Idea: A service where the post office filters out your junk mail for a monthly fee (either all junk mail or junk mail from specific companies that you specify). Also: maybe a kid could drive through the neighborhood after the mailman, filter out the junk mail, and give it to the homeless, or to someone else to use as insulation or something useful; a trenchcoat or puffy coat that allows you to add padding, such as junk mail or other clothing (to allow you to travel without bringing a suitcase); Skippy is shocked that Tom gets almost no junk mail

City Socks

Idea: Vending machines in cities that contain socks and other cheap items that you might occasionally need due to weather or other scenarios when you're out on the town, such as socks (if your feet got wet from stepping in a puddle or something), sticks of deodorant ("City Sticks), hairbrushes and dry shampoo, sunblock, tampons, etc. Also: putting a baby blue silhouette of your city's skyline on the socks; you could re-use the Japanese used-panty vending machines; questioning whether there would be a social stigma to be seen in public wearing "city socks"; this might cause alleys in cities to be strewn with used condoms and soggy socks

Wearable Airbags

Idea: Airbags embedded into clothing to protect you from getting injured from slipping and falling, and maybe also motorcycle accidents and other scenarios. Also: an airbag for a helmet that puffs out like an afro; the brutality of car airbags; a special helmet or shield to protect your face and teeth; distrust of dentistry and the cost of getting new implantable teeth

Bug Zapper Earrings

Idea: Earrings which also function as a bug zapper, to be worn while camping to keep the bugs away. Also: the risk of electrocuting your head if you dive into a lake; using them as a mini-grill for tiny diet-sized pieces of chicken; shoving your wife's head towards a spider; if her ears start smoking, either she just killed a bug or she's really mad

Dip Pants

Idea: Pants to wear when you eat dip (bean dip, french onion dip, etc.) which repel dip if you spill it on them. Also: spraying PFOS/teflon on pants to make them "non-stick"; putting fleece on the inside of the pants to make them more comfortable but possibly so warm that they overheat your groin and make you infertile; a (fictional) traumatic childhood story about spilling dip on pants

Electronic Wedding Ring

Idea: An electronic wedding ring that can log when and where you take it off, to prevent cheaters from taking off their wedding rings. Although, if sunspots knock out the GPS satellites, it'd be like "Cheater Christmas". And in the future, when most people have "augmented reality" glasses, the glasses could augment how other people see the married person, to either make them appear uglier or hide them behind a "digital burka" so people aren't attracted to them

Clothing "Photo Fit" App

Idea: A shopping app that uses photo(s) of you (in your underwear) to calculate and show you what the clothes would look like on your body. Also: hackers stealing semi-nude photos from the app; helping the app determine your body dimensions by standing next to a celebrity mannequin (for example, Seth Rogan) in your photos; having to explain to other people why you have a mannequin of Seth Rogan in his tighty-whities in your house

Vape Lanyard

Idea: A lanyard for a vape pen to prevent other people from wondering away with it after borrowing it, and also to allow other people to identify and avoid "vapists" (because the vape lanyard would stick out of their pocket like the chain of a chain wallet). Also: the risk of a vape pen breaking in your pocket; a weird idea to make vaping cooler

Wearing An Object Around Your Neck

Idea: For everybody to wear an object around their neck like the rapper Flavor Flav while they're out in public, such as a calculator (so people know that you can be counted on). The object can be used for self-expression and as a non-offensive conversation starter, or the object can be useful, such as a lanyard containing your keys when you're at the gym, extra carrying capacity at the airport, or a condom when you're at Martis Gras. But be careful not to wear something that could impale your neck if you trip and fall. Also: truck nuts, poor object choices for self-expression

From Ho To Housewife and Double-Sided Razor

Ideas: A makeup brand named "From Ho To Housewife" which is specialized for bachelorette parties, a double-sided razor with a blue side for men and a pink side for women. Also: Using the double-sided razor, he can stick his head next to her legs and they can shave together in one stroke to save time. And the double-sided razor provides plausible deniability for a man to use the women's razor because women's razors are smoother and more comfortable than men's razors.

Replacement for Blue Jeans

Idea: Pants made out of nanobots which can also go inside your body and help you, by curing diseases or whatever. Also: yoga pants; if some of the pants go inside of you, they must be capris

Work Spouse Ring

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

Cosplay 3D Printing

Idea: Software for using a 3d-printer to make cosplay costumes, including software algorithms for specific comic book characters and for correct sizing of the costumes for obese people (and everybody else)

Washer Dryer Combo

Idea: A washer/dryer combo consisting of only one machine, so you don't have to move clothes from the washer to the dryer. Note that these washer/dryer combos exist and are common overseas, but we heard that they don't work very well. Also: the joy of hang drying your clothes outdoors (if the outdoors isn't spoiled by smog), wearing latex so that you can wash and dry your clothes in the dishwasher, a (joke) WWII Coronavirus conspiracy theory

Glasses That Make Cats Look Like Dogs

Idea: "Augmented reality" glasses that make dogs look like cats, or vice versa. Also maybe headphones, so the person who sees the cat as a dog can say a dog's name, and other people (and the cat) hear them say the cat's name. This technology would also allow everyone to live a lie, causing other people to see and hear them in a way that isn't real

Bro Ties - Hair Ties for Men

Idea: Hair ties marketed to men who have long hair and are too macho or "bro"-like to buy hair ties marketed primarily to women

Baby Feeding Shirt

A smock to wear (over your shirt) when feeding a baby which will absorb vomit if the baby throws up, and has the alphabet printed on it for educational purposes. Also useful for drunk adults who might vomit on themselves or need to recite the alphabet to pass a sobriety test
