Stupid ideas you've come up with

I think there's a thread like this already, but I don't know where.

What dumb ideas for works of fiction/nonfiction/other stuff have you come up with?

One time, I thought about writing a novel wherein I run for President and win, and appoint my friends to be my cabinet, and things progress logically (read: disastrously) from there.

It would've been called This Was A Bad Idea.

I would vote for you.

That would probably be a bad idea.

You can't be much worse than some of the presidents the US has actually had.

My stupid idea:

Armageddon: A Love Story

A romantic comedy set after the end of the world.

I keep telling you, that's actually a decent idea.

Y'know what I wish? I wish there was some business that bought the rights to random ideas people had. Just like "sure, we'll pay you $50 for that." And then they have some talented person make it into a movie or something.

I'd say my "language eggs" though I think that is actually kind of clever for something I thought of at 3 in the morning or whenever it was.

They are eggs, that when you eat them you will learn a new language. The recipe would determine the language you'd learn (so a French recipe would allow you to learn French, a Spanish one would allow you to learn Spanish, scram8led eggs would teach a language at random) and level of done-ness determines fluency (runnier eggs would give you a 8asic understanding and you could pro8a8ly read in the language, medium-doneness would give you a pretty good convers8ional understanding, overcooked eggs would grant full fluency).

I'm not sure I want to know how I thought of that though.
