September 10: official “Swap Ideas Day.”
I’ve got a bunch of ideas to swap, if anyone wants to trade. Take a look at just a few of the offerings:
1. When your friend/co-worker/spouse goes to the restroom, eat his-or-her dessert. When (s)he returns, pretend it was stolen by dessert gnomes.
2. Deposit your used gum on the underside of someone’s car door handle.
3. When solicitors ask for your telephone number, give them the number of the woman down the block who drives everyone crazy telling them to cut their lawn more often. Feign surprise when she complains about a dramatic increase in sales calls.
(Editor’s note: the preceding ideas are available for swap because we recently learned they might get the user into various degrees of trouble. In other words, we’re willing to trade our bad ideas for your good ones.)
Let me know if you have any ideas to trade. As long as you’re willing to take my troublesome ones in exchange for the ones that will make me able to eat all the ice cream and cookies I want without gaining weight (or needing to exercise) I think we can work out a deal!
