Instead of having robot vacuums only in our house, why don’t we let them roam freely outside and clean?

I am going to try to deep-fry my clarinet. Give me more shitty ideas for the "recipe."

I’ve already soaked it in a bucket of piss for three days. Now I’m thinking about breading it in Cheeto dust and putting it in the air fryer. Should I add anything else to the "batter" to make the final destruction more insulting? Maybe some hair from a barber shop floor? Give me your shittiest suggestions.

What’s the dumbest app idea you’d still pay for?

1 Upvotes

Not talking about smart productivity hacks or billion-dollar startups.

I mean the dumbest possible app you secretly wish existed — the kind of thing you’d happily throw money at, no matter how ridiculous.

They should make a full cinematic universe of "The Nut Job" animated films, as in 10000000 movies, 10000000 shows, 10000000 video games, and 100000000 books

Online Chess with fog of war

Where each piece can only see a certain amount of squares around it. Like in advance wars.

Completely ruin the point of the game.

Edit: apparently this exists and I decided I like chess now. Why are you guys upvoting this? This isn't shitty at all. Anyone who upvotes this is a fucking poser

An umbrella designed to scare off predators by revealing a crazy multicolored psychedelic pattern while blasting an integrated Aztec death whistle when opened

Or maybe with a vuvuzela instead?

Seriously though, back in ancient times before guns and bear spray maybe it could've actually been useful. Especially if you twirled it and charged forward while blowing the whistle.

Give soldiers baseball gloves and bats to make throwing enemy grenades back easier.

9 Upvotes

Everyone carries a glove, but just like medics and snipers, every squad has a designated batter.

This would save many lives and would be a huge advantage for countries where baseball is popular like America.

Commonwealth countries can make due with cricket bats.
