Coma Punk Lifestyle

Futuristic, SciFiTom Walma1 Comment

Idea: A lifestyle where you party on the weekend and go into an intentional coma during the week (or longer if necessary), during which you’re weened off drugs, you lose weight (if necessary), basic and cosmetic hygiene (such as getting a tattoo) is performed on you, etc. and you afford the "coma punk" lifestyle by being an influencer, letting scientists experiment on your body, and/or by saving money by not needing an apartment. Also: you could do it temporarily during a flight, to recover from a bachelor party, or to lose weight instead of making it a lifestyle; if you were a "coma punk" during summer break in college, maybe you wouldn't be conscious long enough to forget your studies; the risk of waking up in a bad state hooked up to machines in a drawer, or waking up at the correct time but having floppy weak muscles like in "Kill Bill"; maybe this isn't plausible in real life but it would make a great movie plot

Chance Social Encounter Avoidance App

App, SillinessBen ChampionComment

Idea: An app that warns you if people you know are nearby in a public place (such as a grocery store) so you can avoid bumping into and having unwanted 10+ minute conversations with them. Also: ways to avoid people, such as wearing Mrs. Doubtfire masks, hiding behind bulk toilet paper, and running through the grocery store aisles like Pac-Man; maybe we should invent a hand gesture for "hi but let's not talk very long" (or just use the middle finger); some occupations (dentist, handyman, etc.) cause you to meet so many people in your neighborhood that running errands without getting trapped in unwanted conversations is difficult

Language Teaching AI Chatbot

Education, Artificial IntelligenceEmeka NriaguComment

Idea: AI in a chatbot and/or in videogames that teaches you a foreign language. Also: being immersed in a conversation with a chatbot or in a videogame is more effective than learning in a classroom, and also AI could customize the language teaching to you; existing videogames that teach in clever ways such as "Typing of the Dead"; you could learn ancient Sumerian or Egyptian hieroglyphics from language teaching AI in a videogame and then show up at a real-life historical site and outshine the scholars/historians; AI that monitors you while you're watching foreign language TV and shows subtitles and/or replays sentences if you look confused

Crazy Movie Sequels and Spinoffs

MovieTyler BeansComment

A loose conversation about ideas for crazy movie sequels and spinoffs, including an idea for a sequel of the movie "Liar, Liar" where the kid uses his lie-preventing superpower to force mobsters and villains to tell the truth to their peril. Also: under-the-radar superheroes in movies such as the kid from "Liar Liar" and Mary Poppins; dirty (and not dirty) fan fiction and creepypastas; the movie Avatar and getting obsessed with movie worlds; future AI creating a VR world based on a side character in a movie so you can "live with them"
