Trojan Horse Battering Ram

Idea: A large battering ram for police to use to conduct raids where their body is safely inside the bulletproof battering ram. Also: a dog-like or centipede-like battering ram with robotic legs where one cop lays down inside of it; a multi-person parade-dragon-style battering ram where their upper bodies are inside of it and their lower bodies are protected by bulletproof boots and bulletproof hoop skirts; it could also be used for animal control, firefighters, or for camping inside of it; it's kind of like an above-ground version of that ill-fated deep-water submarine if it was powered by the Flintstones

Prison Labor Household Robots

Idea: To have partially-automated robots in your house that can be controlled remotely by prisoners located in a prison, who can supervise the robot doing chores most of the time, and take over when the robot "gets stuck" or has problems. Also: security concerns, such as blocking out addresses on envelopes on the prisoner's video feed, having the robot only work when the homeowner is not home, etc.; kinky homeowner-robot-prisoner scenarios; using the prison labor household robots to help the lower class; comparing AI and prison labor to slavery and possibly inventing "moral slavery"

Dream Recording Pillow

Idea: A pillow that records your dreams so you can watch them later. Also: using it to steal people's secrets; the chore of sifting through dream recordings; using it to detect that a nightmare is in progress and then having a real world machine grab your feet to scare you; if two heads are on the pillow at the same time, maybe they could they enter each others dreams, in which case if a cockroach is on the pillow, you could enter the cockroach's dream and find mold inside the wall of your house

Sickness Commercials

Idea: To use a futuristic Neuralink-style brain implant to make you briefly feel a disease when you watch the corresponding drug commercial on TV, to help you self-diagnose whether or not you have the disease. Also: making you feel worse if you have Covid or a transmittable disease to dissuade you from leaving the house and spreading it; making you feel the pain of a starving person or to lose a child to gun violence during a charity commercial or PSA; giving people universal basic income only if they submit to allowing TV commercials, the government, your doctor, etc. to use your brain implant to cause you pain with the goal if making you a good citizen (ie teaching you empathy, reduce spread of viruses, etc.)

Netflix Forgetting Device

Idea: A mind-erasing device to make you forget a TV show or movie so you can experience it again as if it was your first time seeing it. Also: using a Black Mirror-esque device while watching Black Mirror; the risk of people using it to forget stuff from their real life; if you have to wear it on your head the whole time it's making you forget stuff, and it's big and nerdy, this would dissuade people from using it for their real life; if you watch the same thing over and over in one sitting, it could drug you or knock you out for a few hours between viewings so your dopamine levels aren't depleted for the later viewings

Next Intelligent Species (Comedic Debate)

A comedic debate about which of four existing animal species (rat, raccoon, octopus, or crow) would be the first to develop human-level intelligence if humanity got wiped out. Also, if they all developed intelligence at about the same time, a debate about which would win in a mechanized inter-species world war. Also: raccoons have thumbs which they could use to wield tools; several nations have recognized octopi as sentient beings; modern-day crows can form pair bonds and work with wolves like our human ancestors did, and so, in the future, dogs could be effectively enslaved.... again; The Great Australian Emu War of 1932

Evil Genie Dream Machine

Idea: A sci-fi machine to allow an external signal (such as a computer program or someone else's mind) to control your dreams. However, the dream machine is buggy, so it causes you to get out of bed and do stuff while you're still asleep which is similar to your dream, but slightly different in an evil or humiliating way. Examples: dreaming of sleeping with Wonder Woman and then waking up with an obese neighbor wearing a Wonder Woman T-shirt; dreaming of eating at a fancy restaurant and then waking up with a full stomach but with the cops at your door to arrest you for stealing silverware from a restaurant and for not paying your bill

Ice Dogs (Robotic Medical Rescue Dogs)

Idea: To use Boston Dynamics robotic dogs to save the lives of people whose hearts have stopped by jumping on their chests and rapidly cooling their bodies, thus giving rescuers an extra hour or two to revive them. Also: "ice dogs" roaming the neighborhood looking for medical emergencies and, in the meantime, serving as police dogs and package delivery dogs; the risk of "ice dogs" sticking to your body like a frozen flagpole; robotic "hot dogs" to prevent malfunctioning "ice dogs" from freezing healthy people to death

Happiness Coma

Idea: To periodically go on a pleasure blitz, and then voluntarily go into a coma for a period of time (a few days to a couple weeks) while your dopamine levels recover or while your recreational drug tolerances go back down to base levels. Also: If scientists cure aging, there's no need to worry about wasting your life in a coma; you could lose weight while in the coma; making someone forget a pleasurable experience so they can experience it with the same intensity again; why it's good to have boring dreams

CRISPR DNA Editing App

Sci-Fi Idea (NSFW): A portable CRISPR DNA-editing device which connects to a cell phone and allows you to design changes to your body using an app, such as growing a tail or becoming taller. Also: you'd be trusting a company like Apple to edit your genes (think about all of the update errors that might happen to your body); using the device to make yourself look exactly like another person; questioning whether you want to change your body so badly that you'd be willing to endure intense pain or eat the body part being improved or replaced

Perfect Companions SciFi Movie

Idea: A Black-Mirror-like sci-fi movie where a tech genius with the goal of "ending grief" creates robots for people to use specifically (and only) for replacing loved ones, such as after a death or a divorce. But parents use the robots to replace their living children who are disappointments with idealized versions of their children, neglecting their real children, and then chaos ensues. Also: A Russian robot in real life that tried to escape the lab; humanoid robot parents replace their humaniod robot children who are disappointments with idealized versions of their humanoid robot children

Consent Detector

Idea (NSFW, dark humor): A sci-fi device implanted in women which detects the intense fear and emotions of sexual assault and automatically alerts the authorities. Or a sci-fi device implanted in men which incapacitates them if they attempts sexual assault, thus making sexual assault impossible. Also: questioning whether it would be falsely triggered by nightmares or scary movies; questioning whether whistles stop crime; a female perspective

Brain Smuggler Movie

Idea: A comedic sci-fi movie where a gross, rude, morbidly obese man saves people from a genocide by temporarily implanting their brains inside his body in order to smuggle them out of the country. Also: the implanted brains can communicate with him and so he's constantly arguing with them; brains consume a lot of calories, so the fat guy would be sweating profusely and eating nonstop on the airplane; in the future, we'll be able to put our brains in new bodies, and so, once people start to get fat, rather than trying to lose weight, they'll let themselves go until they can afford a new body. So there'll be a weird mix of fit, young people and shockingly fat people (like Florida)

Garbage Tubes to Space

Idea: Tubes that shoot garbage into space. The Venturi principle and the surface tension of water would theoretically cause the liquefied garbage to climb up the tube (like water in a tree). Also: Earth would look like the villain Pinhead from the Hellraiser movies; maybe Jupiter and Saturn look brown because they're surrounded by trash that got sucked up into orbit by alien garbage tubes; bending the garbage tubes to launch the garbage into nearby cities with rival sports teams; accidentally sucking the Earth's atmosphere into space

Mind-Sharing Clones

Idea (NSFW): Sci-fi clones which share both your memories and your current thoughts and feelings. Also: dividing work between clones; making sure at least one clone is doing something pleasurable at all times; accumulating all of the fear and sadness of all of your clones and developing PTSD; if you share thoughts with your clone, what happens if your clone goes to hell?

Dogpocalypse

Idea (NSFW): An absurdist futuristic sci-fi movie where a genetically modified half-human half-cat villain tries to destroy all dogs, and a hero has to genetically modify himself to be half-human half-dog in order to breed with the last living dog. Also: the possible cruelty of shooting movies using animals

Far Out Diet

Idea: To shoot overweight people into space so that they can't cheat on their diet, and therefore scientists can gather better diet data. Also: in the movie "Gravity", Sandra Bullock is risking her life jumping from spaceship to spaceship to avoid space debris. In this case, people would be risking their lives jumping from spaceship to spaceship...for a candy bar; overweight people in space could accidentally serve as appetizers for aliens who might develop a taste for human meat

SpaceX Earth Disaster Rescue Service

Idea: To use SpaceX rockets to quickly transport elite rescue teams who specialize in a particular type of disaster (fire, earthquake, riot, etc.) to anywhere in the world to rescue people. They'd parachute out of the rocket to get to the disaster, and when finished, they'd take a normal commercial airplane flight to get back. Also: they could use special state-of-the-art multi-million-dollar rescue equipment (which they'd bring with them); we could reduce the overall amount of local cops and rescuers; rocket tips that kind of look like klan masks

Robot Fish for Scuba and Underwater Theme Parks

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

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
