Floating Reservoir Cities

Tiny Houses, EnvironmentalismTom WalmaComment

Idea: To create eco-friendly, solar-powered floating cities in water reservoirs such as Lake Powell or Lake Mead, to shade the water to reduce evaporation and algae growth, and also to reduce or eliminate house heating and cooling costs. Also: putting some houses on docks and floating other houses on the water, and what to do about pipes; the risk of jerks dumping trash and sewage into the drinking water; how floating houses would perform in different apocalypse scenarios

Car Seat Toilet

Cars, Tech, SillinessHaleigh PotterComment

Idea: A retractable car seat toilet for the driver to use the restroom while driving or in a stopped car. Also: a built-in bidet because it'd be hard to wipe while driving; dumping the waste onto the road and creating an "oil slick" like in Mario Kart; reusing the waste as windshield wiper fluid; becoming the crazy astronaut diaper lady

Concert Periscope

Music, InventionSkippy RoseComment

Idea: Periscopes for short people to use at concerts and music festivals which are sold at the concert for a premium price. Also: a periscope view of the crowd might help you avoid danger; stories of being injured at concerts; putting the periscope in a fake head and wearing a trenchcoat like an Inspector Gadget or Scooby Doo cartoon; ideas for naming it, including Ecstasee, Shakira-to-Shaq, and Peepers

Ice Cream Headache Machine

Food, Silliness, Tech, HealthTom WalmaComment

Idea: A machine which is surgically implanted into your nasal cavity that detects the smell of candy or other unhealthy foods and then rapidly cools down to intentionally give you an "ice cream headache" (aka "brain freeze") to punish you and dissuade you from eating the unhealthy food. Also: its battery could be charged by a wind turbine in your nostril; you could put other gadgets up your nose, like an anti-snoring device or a pepper-spray launcher; the humor of watching thin, classy women digging into their noses in public because of this machine

White Privilege Warning App

App, Politics and Social IssueAndy McFarlandComment

Idea: An app that monitors what you're doing and uses AI to determine if you're using white privilege or being racist, in which case it alerts you, shocks you, plays a loud tone so the other person can't hear what you're saying, etc. Also: a "boomer collar" which temporarily paralyzes your vocal cords to prevent you from saying offensive things; being forced to use the app as punishment; over-the-top examples of white privilege and an observed incident of blatant racism

Lact-Os

FoodHaleigh PotterComment

Idea: Soft, bite-sized cheese balls with another gooey-er cheese inside, sold in a pack to be eaten alone as a snack. Also: gas station eggs; a series of related cheese products, such as a carbonated cheese-flavored drink; cheese-based toys for kids, such as a Play-Doh-like Lact-O rolling kit or cheese stick Lincoln Logs
