The Ideas I Do Not Have
Ideas, they are this thing that often times illudes me. I think Fry of Futurama said it best, "You know a Headache with Pictures". I often times read peoples ideas on the net. And more often than not I find myself thinking, what is wrong with these people. How god awefully stupid do you have to be to think that would work. But every once in a while I find one and think Wow. That is the result of intelligence. Not very often but when I do see them it makes me optimistic. Of course that optimism is crushed by the mind blowing stupidity of others. Take for instance the new SyFy Channel.
Yes I spelled it correct, the new SyFy channel. According to SlashDot one of the few channels I can stand to watch the Sci-Fi channel is going to change its name. And for what purpose, to attract the less geeky of individuals. Thus affectivly ending one of the happier places on the planet, well it was not as happy since Stargate was cancelled. However, it can be a magical place from time to time. But not any more, and the name change is not really the thing that gets me. I mean people do dumb shit like that all the time. It is the reasoning. And the reasoning is that the word Sci-Fi is tied to closely to reclusive, fat, socially retarded, geeks, like myself. And the corperate idiots who came up with this idea have decided that people are put off by that thought. So in order to attract a larger audience they are changing the name of the channel. Are you fucking kidding me? The Sci-Fi channel was created with the sterotype in mind. Or at least I would hope it was. The whole point of the channel was to give geeks a safe haven to watch really geeky shows that are to... umm... geeky for real TV. But now that is all over. Next thing you know Friends will make its way over there. This is just NBCs way of killing the geek lifestyle. Well they can be assured that the main chunk of its original viewers will be gone. Because SlashDot recives some pretty massive traffic. And the word will spread. I hope that the channel withers and dies so that those ass holes at NBC lose a nice chunk of revenue. I really hate American capitalism. That is why I read about Japans capitalism.
Sorry bad lead in to this article that makes me happy. The boob claw machine. Yes only in Japan would something as wonderfully awesome as this fly. You see that is what I like about Japan. They can see REALLY good ideas and give them a start. Here in America, if some shmuck went to some investors and said "I want to make a cran game distributes fake boobs", I think he would get arrested. Shot down by the Marketers and other idiots with business degrees, as lude and not what the people want. Despite the fact that every teenage boy from here sea to shining sea would fucking want one of these. They would bleed their pockets dry trying to get one. Hell I would try and get three, that way I could juggle boobs. This is such a wonderful idea, and yet it would never see the light of day here in the states. But at least there is hope in Japan. Damn I wish I could have ideas like that one.
I wish I could have had a lot of ideas. Like this one for instance. A nice group of boy scouts trying to earn the rank of eagle by feeling boobs. This is simply brilliant, giused under the innocent act of breast cancer awareness. It is times like these that I wish I was more of a perv. Because I could have come up with it and tried to make it a reality. Granted I am not sure the Scouts would have like the idea of me doing it in a basement. But hey, what better of a way to prove I am straight other than doing everything in my power to attempt to feel boobies? It is the perfect boob feeling agenda. And with the recent cancer fad we have had over the past few years I would get in minimal trouble. After watching that video I just kick myself for not thinking up the idea. But hey what can you do, sometimes you just have to think about other things. And yes I am well aware that this is from the onion.
