We never know when a good idea is going to shoot across our poor, tired brains. Many people have had them come in dreams, but my dreams are either too boring or make no sense, so that’s out.
So for the rest of us, I guess the only hope is to see people struggle with a problem that seems obvious to us.
I’m guessing that’s what happened with these folks.
1. Ouch, getting roasted stings enough without having to decode the insult.

If this is how we’re wasting each other’s time in 2018, this year is about to be even scarier than I thought.
And that little heart makes him even more of an evil genius.
2. Now now, I’m sure whoever set this up has taken all of the appropriate precautions.

OK, fine. I just want to believe that because I lowkey think that watching TV this way is worth the risk.
Don’t lie, I know I’m not alone.
3. How were we telling people to stay in their lane before we actually invented the lanes for them?

Sure, there are a whole bunch of problems we still have to solve, but I feel like we could have resolved this stair dispute a long time ago.
4. I’ll admit that part of me is terrified by this, but I also kind of love it.

I’m sure I’ll change my tune if I end up having a kid who does this kind of stuff, though. That kid’s teachers are on their own.
5. Yeah, I definitely want to see this presentation now.

Granted, I could probably find this exact thing on the internet but…trust me, going too deep into Sonic research is kind of a bad idea.
There are just some things that nobody should ever see.
6. If this actually worked, we have concrete proof that parents never actually read these things.

Unless they assumed that all the cool science museums don’t capitalize their own names. And that handing in the permission form after you go on the trip makes perfect sense.
7. If there’s anything that can soothe the sting of a breakup, it’s a clever and thoughtful Harry Potter reference.

Haha yeah, I thought the parents were implying something else with the sock, too. Imagine if this person never saw that message.
Awkward…
8. Aw man, if only all tattoo artists were this good at knowing their limitations.

But I suppose that a world with no regrets is just some beautiful, unattainable dream. I’d love to see “I can even do the hard ones” in a tattoo artist’s bio, though.
9. Yeah, I think that even the most uptight nerd in the world wouldn’t try to wash this off.

If nothing else, they’d have to admit that it promotes good dental hygiene. It certainly beats looking at some ugly pipe, or whatever that is.
10. There we go, this might just be the way to get people back to eating stuff that’s actually supposed to go in their bodies.

Yeah, I’ll admit I’m kind of grading on a curve here, but let’s just go with baby steps for now.
11. Considering that my average night sleep involves rolling myself into a burrito and obsessively checking the clock, Sarah definitely deserves encouragement.

I suddenly wish that I didn’t spend every nap time just laying on the mat, bored out of my mind. That was valuable education I missed out on.
12. When people say things like “you’re crazy” or “that’s against our policy, sir,” that’s how you know you’re a true visionary.

Socrates was put on trial for his ideas, this guy got kicked out of the mall. It’s pretty much the same story.
13. As much fun as sitting in a creepy attic and wearing the dress for the rest of your life is, this is probably the much healthier option.

Plus, the wedding industry has gotten away with overcharging for this stuff for way too long.
14. As long as it doesn’t increase the risk of serious pant-splashing, I’m fully on board with this idea.

Just because you rushed to school in your pajamas without showering doesn’t mean you can’t appreciate a little class.
15. Haha, this was already nice and thoughtful before the kid realized he was coming to his dad’s rescue.

I’d say the kid’s raising the bar, but I’m lucky because neither of my parents are 100% sure what day their anniversary is so that works out.
16. Welp, I’ve found my new favorite donut shop. And that was before I realized they were the freshest donut pros!

Unless I can somehow write donuts off as a business expense, I’m glad we agree that this receipt is as redundant as their slogan.
17. I wonder if we’ll ever find out why he wanted to bring this trombone.

To any wise guys saying stuff like “so he could play it and pose with it,” you’re part of the problem.
I don’t know what problem exactly, but shame on you.
18. The best part is that this dad would probably feel like he made the right move no matter how this situation turned out.

“No matter what happens, the important thing is that we’re getting through it together, bacon.”
19. I wonder if he goes up to the roof with this grin on every time a plane flies by?

I imagine the pilots are so over this by now that they’re saying “just ignore him” to the passengers. No “ladies and gentlemen,” no nothing.
20. Sometimes following your dreams is all about finding a realistic enough dream.

They could’ve driven themselves crazy trying to get the whole cast to do something, but this plan actually got them what they wanted.
And let’s not pretend the man didn’t trim some wigs.
21. The best part is that he doesn’t care why you’d want to know this. He just thinks it’s only fair that you know.

Not to mention, if they can use snitches then why shouldn’t the people get a few of their own?
22. The fact that he can record with both of those without dropping them or making them all shaky is seriously impressive.

I guess love can inspire you to perform some heroic feats. I’m holding out for the part where I can lift a car, though.
23. It may be one of the most uncomfortable-looking things I’ve ever seen, but I can’t argue with that lash game.

I’m not sure if this would feel better or worse after it melts, though. That’s one experiment I’m not volunteering for.
24. So wait, were those IT guys who looked at me like I’m an idiot for doing this just hiding a terrible secret all along?

OK, I went to go check and this kid obviously knows a step I don’t. The FBI haven’t even texted me.
Rude.
