I don't necessarily want to un-follow anyone on Twitter.

I'd just like it so that if they said certain words, I wouldn't hear them.

Burger cookie.

Cookie on top, meat in the middle, cookie on bottom.

Weighted forks.

So that when you eat, you work out. Or when you eat, it's too much of a burden, so you give up.

A twitter idea

I'm just as sick of hearing about Twitter as everyone else, but I had a Twitter idea, so bear with me. While it's occasionally interesting to see the trending topics of the general Twitter populace, I would like to be able to see trending topics within a specific group of people. Namely my friends and friends of my friends. I think those topics would be more relevant to my interests. Although I still got love for you Oprah.

MP3 music store.

Some way to combine the idea of a record store with the inherent better-ness of MP3s. Sorry, this is a rough idea: You bring your iPod to the store and you can 'browse records,' but you buy by sticking your iPod into the slot of the 'record' and downloading one, two, or all of the songs. This is a stupid idea.

a twitter feed

only postings of when you fart.

Subway breakfast menu.

I ate leftover chicken breast sandwich at 9 AM. Bad idea. Pancake-bread wraps. Waffle subs. Strawberries, eggs, bacon, sausage. Goodbye.

A TCM for classic television.

Johnny Carson and Steve Allen Tonight Shows would air every night. Sid Caesar and the like. TV Land would become like the AMC to this network's TCM.

Make your own Clutch Cargo

Clutch Cargo was a cartoon in the late 50's/60's notable for superimposing real human lips on minimally animated characters. You might be more familiar with this technique as it was used on Late Night with Conan O'Brien as Conan "interviewed" celebrities such as Arnold Schwarzenegger, Michael Jackson, Bill Clinton, and Donald Trump.

There should be a website where you can make your own Clutch Cargo-style videos. I imagine it would be pretty easy to do with a webcam. There could be different templates to make your own parody videos or music videos. Then you would be able to share these videos or send them as e-cards.

Movie trailers as prequels.

Alfred Hitchcock filmed a woman who was not Janet Leigh being stabbed in the shower for the trailer to 'Psycho.' Which brings me to my next idea: movie trailers that serve as prequels for the film. If it's the next Friday the 13th, for instance, the trailer is a woman being stalked and murdered who is *not* in the movie, but could say/lay down seeds for things that *do* happen in the movie. Or if it's a drama, it's just a small interaction between the main characters that sets them up without giving anything away.

TV Sitcom-ize yourself.

Type in your name and put in your face and you'll be on the cover of a DVD like 'A Matter of Life or Beth' with episode summaries and a cast of characters.

Internet staring contests.

Webcam registers your face and then, uh, you stare at somebody until somebody blinks. This is awesome.
