Any Press is Good Press
The Fun Idea Machine makes the New York Post…
Unfortunately, it seems they made a few things up… “IDEA NO. 126: Freeze in place while waiting outdoors in the winter.” Huh? The thing’s only existed two weeks. Unless it’s going to the other side of the globe while I’m asleep, I think what they mean is “Freeze in place… right now, right here, the way Improv Everywhere did… now watch people watch you.” I wonder is that makes the Ryan McDermott they quoted as having gotten that one, er, well, I’ll let you do the math.
Oh well, it’s all in good fun.
In related news, turns out my FUN-O-METER isn’t the only fun biz idea making the rounds in the paper this morning. Five pages later, under “Hot ‘Grinders’” they explain how Anthony “Cousin Vinny” Angelo ran afoul of Subway Sandwiches for sending out fliers “promising customers free fountain sodas and $5 foot-long subs” with purchase of “six hours of nonstop, hard-core, live action from some of the most beautiful young ladies who have ever chosen to take their clothes off in public.”
How awesome is that? It might be worth doing something similar with the machine. I’ll keep you posted.
