Bonnet Steeze. If you don't know... Search up the thread "A Revolution".

I also invented what I like to call the "Death Chord" for those of you that know music theory. A cluster of 4 tritones. Just about the worst possible thing you can do in classical theory.

4 tritones?! Hot damn people would die. Would you repeat the same tritone over and over? like b f b f b f b f? or layer different tritones over eachother chromatically to make it sound even more horrendous (b/f, c/f#, c#/g, d/G#)

Naahhh, that repetition shit is for pussies. We're talking full blown chromatically layered tritones. Then you can repeat it if you want. Or you could play it in a chromatic scale. Which would just sound terrible.

Or even worse.... Play it off each note in an octatonic scale. I think that would be called the death scale.

Typo: The Death Chord is in fact a cluster of 6 chromatically layered tritones. 4 would result in two clusters, creating harmonies. 6 tritones provides for maximum dissonance.

Just felt I needed to clarify that.

this way to find the summation of huge numbers:
you find half the number, add 0.5 to that number and then multiply by the original.

guys, i have invented at least 4 sports with the potential to become olympic disciplines (leaning, lopenin, hasches, smball). actually, lopenin is parcours, but i swear that i never heard of parcours before i "invented" it. smball is tha bomb, its like squash, but you throw the ball and the "goal" (for the competitive version) is the basketball board. but you can really play at any place with a wall. i dont want to describe hasches and leaning right now.

than a great matrix to calculate X^y if you know (x-1)^y, VERY helpful for numbers like 81^2 (because 80^2 is easy), 36^2 (because 35^2 is easy) and so on. not so helpful for other numbers though.

Thats a damn good idea.

Me and a few of my friends invented this weird baseball/basketball game. Youve got two on each team and one team shoots it from half court:   missing everything=strike     backboard=foul ball,   backboard+rim once=double    backboard+rim twice=double   just rim= triple    making the basket=home run. The opposing players have to start outside the three point line until the other team shoots if they can catch any of the shots before they hit the ground its an out. It doesnt sound that fun but it can get pretty intense.

I had the idea of fixed gear tandem bikes, with optional seat mounted buttplugs. The hipsters would be all over it.

take a look at who is getting out of the car. In that movie, we had also invented robots with AI who decide to kick our ass.

Tandem bikes with buttplugs aside, I have a legitimate invention too. How sick would it be to have a chairlift/ gondola grid in major cities; like having 1 cable every 10 blocks, running north and south, and east and west. only problem would be designing some kind of safety system so that 100 blocks of people in the lift and people on the ground don't all die if the cable breaks. So... One of you invent the safety system, I will invent the chairlifts, and cities like new york will pay us millions.

On topic... When I was in like 5th grade and, actually, up until like 8th grade I would make these paper ball launchers and other weaponry out of pen parts. They were either spring based or rubber band based and some shot pretty far, all had at least across the classroom range. They shot small paper balls though, but I'd give them to my friends in class and we'd have a paper ball war. I almost developed one with a hopper like you have on a paintball gun. Eventually I moved up to trying to make bb based guns, I had this really strong spring from an umbrella, but I couldn't make a trigger/locking mechanism. Making stuff is so fun, that's all I can think of right now.

I also tried making a self timer for one of my camera, but could never get it to work. It was also spring and rubber band based.

When I was like 13 I had an idea that men should have something equivalent to what the dildo is for women. I told me friends about it saying it would be like a tube with something that felt like a vagina. They all called me stupid and showed me a pocket pussy on the internet. I felt pretty dumb but pretty good at the same time. I mean, it was a good idea... just one that about a million other people probably had too.
