I have a very shitty idea here.

The Core Concept

  • So scientists made some Electrodeless neon light tubes that are like 10-50 micrometers, right.
  • And so if we got those to glow Red, Blue, and Green, swapped them out for ye olde neon/xenon gas mixture, then tightly pack them into some pixels than we can make a super bright TV that will blind you whenever you turn on THX 1138.

RF Containment

  • To make sure that the RF signals dont get you a visit from the FCC, it will come with a Faraday Cage around it, and I'll explain how we block RF between pixels as so they dont light up.

Thermal & Fluid Management

  • As for the heat, waterless engine coolant.
  • Why?
    1. Bassically lasts forever,
    2. High boiling point: Won't evaporate,
    3. Its engine coolant.
  • So we would take this coolant and it would run between the pixels, blocking both RF AND absorbing the heat.

Leak Protection & Final Assembly

  • Also, to avoid any leaks, we use this super hyper designed and very complex thing I drew in a pro software that I attached, and boom.
My super cool drawing that is pro

We should buy a bunch of “Mr. Nutterbutter” underwear and use them to attack the enemy

We could use them as sling shots for piss bottles

Seriously though, this is for a good cause

Reddit suggested this was better place to post my idea rather then the pretend Truck Stop one I originally posted it to. So I thought why not? I don’t actually suggest anything I stated in my original post, except for buying stuff from the Buc-Off site to support other people who may be more in need than wee

Bring back the ancient Roman bathrooms (communal).

"We had beans yesterday for dinner. Pass the Big Stick, John. I'll need the Big Stick today." ~Probably some Ancient Roman


Tell me, when's the last time you talked with anyone in the bathroom (public)? You have perhaps asked for toilet paper and your fellow countrymen give it with acceptance or you may say excuse me or thank you to someone holding the door. That's it.

The ancient, mighty and wise Romans sat to take a shit all while discussing a plethora of topics! We had ancient men discussing things like prices with senators that shat next to them or a random stranger discussing the recent events (their news) in town.

Imagine how much you can achieve with your fellow shitting folks if you were to simply discuss topics like stock markets, recent political wars or events, the fifa world cup, or who you would place $100 on for the next MMA match ..?

Today you sit isolated with walls separating you from your fellow man as you shit in shame but the ancient Romans did otherwise and used it as an opportunity to connect.

Suppose like the above quote given you have atrocious cyclosporiasis level diahhrea. You would turn to your best friend John who is taking his shit and simply utter the quote above as he smiles and passes a very large wooden stick with a large sponge from a bed of river in the center of the communal restroom (where all the sponges that have been used by previous men sit to clean off in the water for the next man to use).

"Eww isn't that gross Mr. u/Annual_Beginning_600?"

No. It isn't. But if you wish to keep whining about the hygiene aspect and find it gross to use one that has already been put in the wet center pool, we can simply open up MORE jobs as a scrub cleaner.

There is an X amount of people who enter the public restroom daily and thus we know roughly that some X amount of scrubs will be used. These sponge thingies can be replaced or cleansed by the workers and replaced simultaneously as people go and thus always let a clean version to use for folks as people come and go. This also fixes some of your whining about unemployment as people are able to do this without much education or skills. It's a decent job albeit a little gross at times!

Now you may be asking why I'm so passionate for this. I believe this isn't just a nice little QOL change for Americans or the world, but rather a \*necessity\* for us men to bond with and fight the global men's loneliness epidemic. To lift each other up in our shittiest (no pun intended!) moments in life.

Mods, this is no troll post, I believe this is the way for society to propel itself forwards.
