Creativity Wasted

Idea: A prank where a very loud air horn is disguised as "poo pouri" toilet spray. If someone has to go to the bathroom really badly, and they try to spray the "toilet spray" before pulling down their pants, the shock of the unexpected air horn might cause them to accidentally "let one loose" in their pants next to the toilet. It could also sound like a fart and/or release a bad smell, letting other people know that you're pooping, which is a fact that you were trying to hide by using the "toilet spray". Also: using sound vibrations from the air horn to dislodge kidney stones; keeping a urine sample in the fridge at work Originally from Creativity Wasted episode 51 Gimmy Cipriano (twitter.com/theRealGimmyC, twitter.com/aBitTooMuch1) Ricarlo Winston (twitter.com/thewolfspider23) Markus Olind (twitter.com/BeardVonMarkus) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Recorded at Podcast Detroit (https://PodcastDetroit.com)

Idea: A heated car cover for winter so you don't have to scrape snow and ice off your car. When not in use, it would be kept inside a box in one of the car seats. The box would look like a baby, and would be hollow like a Russian nesting doll. The car cover would be permanently attached to the box, and would have a hole for your car door latch, so you could close your car door with part of the car cover still inside the car (and also connected to the cigarette lighter for electricity to heat the car cover in the rare case that ice freezes it to the outside of the car). Also, keeping part of the car cover attached to the box in the car seat ensures that the car cover is always aligned correctly for quickly and easily wrapping it around the car (i.e. you don't have to fumble with finding the front of the car cover, the car cover blowing away, etc). Also: a parking spot which has an electric car charger could also have some sort of electronic device to keep snow and ice off the car which is parked there; using fire to remove a frozen-on car cover James Couture (instagram.com/secretbeefcake) Justin Siekierka (ComedyShow: facebook.com/Liberty-Street-Brewing-Co-116123201742619) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma)

Idea: A variation of the game "rock, paper, scissors" which involves betting in a way similar to poker and playing in groups instead of 1-on-1, with the intent of being a game of skill like poker. Also: the essence of "rock, paper, scissors"; a game kit which includes 1) sensors to prevent cheaters from changing their choice a split second after the round ends, 2) computerized scorekeeping, and 3) an electronic display of the results of recent rounds of the game to help you formulate a strategy for future rounds; achieving success on Kickstarter by selling a product so stupid that it gains attention (for example, by selling a game that you can play for free) James Couture (instagram.com/secretbeefcake) Justin Siekierka (ComedyShow: facebook.com/Liberty-Street-Brewing-Co-116123201742619) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma)

Idea: Holograms of horror movie villains that women can project out of their nipples to scare off creepy guys who stare at their breasts. Also: using the holograms to project clothes to allow you to be nude in public; holograms for men (cree-penis, i.e. "creepiness"); questioning whether "Naked Mile" nude runs still occur at colleges; accidentally training babies to suckle on serial killers' faces James Couture (instagram.com/secretbeefcake) Justin Siekierka (ComedyShow: facebook.com/Liberty-Street-Brewing-Co-116123201742619) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma)

Idea: A late-night-style comedic talk show about movies, including a comedy monologue and segments such as Hollywood news, Parents Popcorn Pick of the Week, reviews of new release movies, and miscellaneous comedy sketches. Also: streaming services and movie watching parties with your friends as a replacement for movie theaters; crying during the Pixar movie Up in front of your friends; you can watch Hollywood Sauce on the Salsa Parlor YouTube channel at youtube.com/channel/UCiltbBbmcMrcuyCBObEr6_A James Couture (instagram.com/secretbeefcake) Justin Siekierka (ComedyShow: facebook.com/Liberty-Street-Brewing-Co-116123201742619) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma)

Idea: A lanyard for a vape pen to prevent other people from wondering away with it after borrowing it, and also to allow other people to identify and avoid "vapists" (because the vape lanyard would stick out of their pocket like the chain of a chain wallet). Also: the risk of a vape pen breaking in your pocket; a weird idea to make vaping cooler Gimmy Cipriano (YouTube: ABitTooMuch https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCk8ueoJ9U1PyJYf3W5Kfhmg) Kara Coraci (twitter.com/@KaraCoraci https://www.crotchie.com) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma)

A bunch of ideas for virtual (i.e. Zoom/Skype) entertainment experiences with real human guides, where the experiences would be impossible to do in-person in the real world (as opposed to "Amazon Explore", which is virtual versions of real-world experiences). Examples include virtual tours of historical places and historical disasters, virtual tours of real-world places with "inappropriate" tour guides (such as comedians), video-drone tours of real world places which are off-limits to tourists (the moon, parts of the Grand Canyon, etc.), and real world events/games where the person participating virtually plays a role of a team (for example, being a lookout in a heist) Joel Fragomeni (Podcast: https://joelradio.net) Sai-D (twitter.com/saidee27) Matti Yaari (facebook.com/myaari) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma)

Idea: For everybody to wear an object around their neck like the rapper Flavor Flav while they're out in public, such as a calculator (so people know that you can be counted on). The object can be used for self-expression and as a non-offensive conversation starter, or the object can be useful, such as a lanyard containing your keys when you're at the gym, extra carrying capacity at the airport, or a condom when you're at Martis Gras. But be careful not to wear something that could impale your neck if you trip and fall. Also: truck nuts, poor object choices for self-expression Joel Fragomeni (Podcast: https://joelradio.net) Sai-D (twitter.com/saidee27) Matti Yaari (facebook.com/myaari) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma)

Idea: To plan vacations around the science of brain chemistry, such as the concept that it takes a few hours or days to fully replenish pleasure-inducing brain chemicals. For example, if it takes a few days to replenish a brain pleasure chemical like dopamine, in the meantime, you could schedule leisure activities which require different brain pleasure chemicals, such as a rollercoaster which requires lots of adrenaline but not much dopamine. Also: varying your schedule so your body can't predict its future state and level you out (i.e. make you bored) Originally from Creativity Wasted episode 50 "Spruce Rice" (twitter.com/LordBluntsWorth) Avery Sommerfeld (facebook.com/crazeecomedy, YouTube: Funny News https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCN6nBbMFIE03wqFz5PwAA3w) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Recorded at Podcast Detroit (https://PodcastDetroit.com)

Idea: To periodically go on a pleasure blitz, and then voluntarily go into a coma for a period of time (a few days to a couple weeks) while your dopamine levels recover or while your recreational drug tolerances go back down to base levels. Also: If scientists cure aging, there's no need to worry about wasting your life in a coma; you could lose weight while in the coma; making someone forget a pleasurable experience so they can experience it with the same intensity again; why it's good to have boring dreams Special Guests Avery Sommerfeld and "Spruce Rice" "Spruce Rice" (twitter.com/LordBluntsWorth) Avery Sommerfeld (facebook.com/crazeecomedy, YouTube: Funny News https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCN6nBbMFIE03wqFz5PwAA3w) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma) Recorded at Podcast Detroit (https://PodcastDetroit.com)
