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

InstaCrowd

Idea: To fill empty seats at a standup comedy show with inflatable audience members. Also: comedians would perform lewd acts on the inflatable audience; disguising yourself as an inflatable audience member and waiting for the comic to perform lewd acts on you; questioning whether to give the inflatable audience a "heckle mode"; an inflatable audience could be a safety feature if you're in a flood zone or on a cruise ship

Lawnmower with Sponges instead of Blades

Idea: A lawnmower with sponges instead of blades, so you can't cut your feet with the blades. But how can you cut the grass? Also: avocado hand, questioning where sponges come from

Toilet Fishtank

Idea: To use your toilet bowl as an aquarium. The problem is that you'd have to buy new fish three times a day. Also: piranhas would be a bad choice; using your toilet tank as a fishbowl and having a relaxing view of fish while you vomit into the toilet

Remote-Controlled Radio-Powered LEDs

Idea: To use tiny LED lights which can be powered remotely via radio waves (like RFID) for miscellaneous purposes around the house, such as to help you find things or to prank people. Also: putting red LEDs in a squirrel lawn ornament's eyes to scare people walking by at night; using a PC app to find your phone, then using your phone to blink an LED to find your glasses, and then using your glasses to find something else, and then maybe using that thing to find something else, like a never-ending scavenger hunt
