A long time ago, my then-scrum master pitched an idea to us: ID badges with little microphones. The microphones wouldn't record anything, but they'd constantly monitor the ambient noise to see if we were having the kind of excited, buzzy conversations that signaled innovation. Once we had them, we could tune our days to maximize innovation.

I was brand new at the company but I told him that everyone was trying to catch lightning in a bottle, but nobody was willing to build a fucking battery. Then I told him the day we adopted that policy, I'd hand in my resignation. It never came up again.

Motherfuckers will try anything and they always have.

    Oh no! Someone forgot all the fancy dances we do today is so the common populace doesn't eat the ruling classes! Looks like we should remind him.

    Sometimes I feel like a simple....70% power jab to the head when billionaires say stupid shit would stop them saying a lot of dumb shit.

    Here's an idea, and I'm just spitballing here... What if for every 1 Million dollars of net worth you have, you have to rub down your genitals with fresh stinging nettles for 1 minute?

    Elon would have to do it for about 2 years

    This highlights a major flaw with the idea, because that's not nearly long enough

    Yeah, it's not a really practical idea anyway. There are diminishing returns, after the 20th minute it wouldn't be any worse and your body might actually start to get accustomed to the sensation.

    I would suggest they have to do it once a day for five minutes contact per million dollars and they have to cycle between stinging nettles, poison ivy and wild parsnip.

    Just that part is all you take issue with? It's a (probably AI generated) cartoon character, not a real tool of revolution.

    Apparently we live in an age of business owners who want to drive people away from their businesses.

    If it's up my ass, is it facing inward looking at my colon or facing outward looking at my underwear?

    In the 90s, there was a funny website that had an article on the "world's first rectal camera." It was an article so I think it covered the "why" and "who" and "how" and everything. When they got to the photos, they were just normal photos with a round black border around them.

    It was funny. I wish I could find it again.

    Yes ok, if you really want to see it, but I gotta know: how many raccoons is one camera?

    Genuinely how hard is it to at least pretend you're not a nazi pedophile while being a nazi pedophile?

    Not that I'm complaining necessarily. At least they're making it easy to know which companies to avoid.
