On-Hold Chat Buddy

Idea: For a business who places you on hold to connect you to another person who's also waiting on hold, so you can complain about the company together, become friends, and/or figure out each other's tech support problems. Also: you could try to anger the other person on hold to get them to hang up and you move up in the hold queue; lonely old people could volunteer to chat with people who're on hold, which might eventually cause your grandma to learn tech support and become more tech-savvy than you, in which case SHE will have to help YOU when your computer breaks down

Bed Box

Idea: A box to cover your bed from your neck down (like you're sleeping in a matchbox or in a coffin which is missing the head part of the coffin lid). You'd put a 2nd layer of bed covers on top of the "bed box" and tuck them in around your shoulders to put your body in an airtight cacoon while you sleep. The main purpose is to allow you to let your house cool down to be super cold at night in the winter to reduce your heating bill, without having an extra layer of bed covers press down uncomfortably on your chest while you try to sleep (because the extra layer of bed covers would be on top of the "bed box"). Also: you wouldn't have to make the bed because the bed covers on top of the "bed box" wouldn't get disturbed while you sleep; you could use the "bed box" instead of a mosquito net (with the aid of a "head box" extension); you could make love inside the "bed box" without worrying about your kids walking into the room and catching you; you could make the "bed box" bulletproof and mount weapons on the top of the inside of the box

Eavesdrop Diner

Idea: A chain of restaurants where every table is live-streamed on the Internet to allow people watching at home to eavesdrop on their conversations, pay for their food and/or drinks, give them likes, chat/gossip with other eavesdroppers who're watching the same table, and (in some cases) send messages to interact with the people eating at the restaurant. Also: watching first dates, anniversary dinners, arguments, and break-ups; acting fake or fetishy for the camera; a coaster or tracker to allow the camera to follow you around while you do activities (like play pool) in the restaurant; an "event wheel" for eavesdroppers to spin to cause events in the restaurant (for example, to cause a waitress to spill the drinks)

Retail Worker F You Card

Idea: A card given to retail workers once a year, where if the retail worker gives the card to a rude customer, they can insult, yell at, curse at, and/or humiliate the customer for 30 seconds without consequence (i.e. without getting fired). Also: tracking rude customers who receive "F You Cards" in a government database (i.e. the Chinese "social credit score" but made fun); a rude customer repeatedly receiving "F You Cards" who lashes out against society and becomes the Joker; staging extremely elaborate "F You Card" incidents to try to go viral on the Internet; giving your "F You Card" to the same rude customer 15 years in a row
