Twig Posted June 12, 2013 I just had what is possibly my greatest idea ever. A box, that gets mailed from one person to the next, on a whim. I give it to a friend. He gives it to one of his friends. Or maybe an enemy! Why? Because. What's in the box? A boxing glove on a spring that punches the opener in the face. Please. Someone. Make this happen.

osmosisch Posted June 12, 2013 So the idea is to hurt people serially? That seems the opposite of worthwhile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twig Posted June 12, 2013 That's what you got out of that, huh? Yeesh I can't deal with this kind of cynicism, man. STOP IT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twig Posted June 12, 2013 You've just depressed me beyond comprehension. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
osmosisch Posted June 12, 2013 I don't know how else to even interpret the idea of mailing a box around that punches the receiver in the face. That's not cynical, just taking what you say literally. What else did you mean? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clyde Posted June 12, 2013 I find the exchange between you two about the punching package, hilarious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ucantalas Posted June 12, 2013 Personally, I'd be laughing pretty hard if I recieved a packaged and it was just a boxing glove that punched me in the face. I like this idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twig Posted June 12, 2013 Yeah! It's such a bonkers thing! Man I love it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clyde Posted June 12, 2013 I've heard of someone doing this, only it wasn't a boxing glove, it was anthrax. And it wasn't funny, it was terrorism. This is an attempt a humor. I'm not offended by your punching box idea, but at the same time, I'm not giving you my mailing address. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zeusthecat Posted June 12, 2013 I'm on board too. I don't think I could be mad if I opened a box and was punched in the face by a spring loaded boxing glove. I would just get all nostalgic and go watch The Goonies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SecretAsianMan Posted June 12, 2013 What's in the box? Peter Molyneux. When you open it, he jumps out and punches you in the face. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twig Posted June 12, 2013 Even better! I wonder how much that'd cost... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SecretAsianMan Posted June 12, 2013 It'll be the top tier backer reward for his next Kickstarter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zeusthecat Posted June 12, 2013 I hate to do this but I need to bring up poo again just real quick to piggyback on Twig's new Kickstarter. I've had this idea for awhile to create a new product called Revenge Candles. These are basically just candles with crap in the middle. The great thing about them is that it takes the flaming bag of shit on the doorstep to the next level since the person you give this to basically lights it themselves and will eventually end up with an awful smell permeating their house that they unknowingly caused. I have actually thought out all of the different types of Revenge Candles that could be manufactured but I better leave it at that. So Twig, would you be willing to package my Revenge Candles with your product? After being punched in the face the recipient might think that the candle is an "I'm sorry I punched you in the face just now" kind of gift but end up getting a double whammy.

Ucantalas Posted June 12, 2013 This... this is pure evil incarnate. The dark depths of your mind know no bounds, clearly. I am disgusted yet intrigued by this product. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ucantalas Posted June 12, 2013 I just have to ask, though: How do you plan on doing this if it becomes a big seller thing? Do you start working on artifical poop substitutes? Or do you start farming feces? Will you have employees on strict diets to provide consistent textures conducive to poo-candle making? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zeusthecat Posted June 12, 2013 It's worse than you think. One of the products in the Revenge Candle catalog would be floating bath candles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
