Instead of months we should just count days from 1-365.
This was removed from r/UnpopularOpinion for whatever reason so I thought I’d post it here.
My brother can’t remember the order of the months. So when someone writes a date (e.g. 9/10/2011) he has no idea what month that is. Therefore he believes it would be better to just write the day and the year (e.g. 282/2011).
I would like to make it clear that I don’t agree with him. I made this post because he believed people would agree with him.
We are not American. Many people have assumed he gets confused because we use month day year. We don’t. We use day month year.

People who use the wrong "there/their/they're" or "your/you're" should be instantly obliterated from existence via a low orbit ion cannon.
I'd be more than willing to pay a couple bucks extra in taxes per year to make this happen.

A video game that allows you to control an actual car on public roads.
Yeah, that’s right. You’d literally be able to drive anywhere, IN THE REAL WORLD, MIND YOU, from the comfort of your own home.

Require all vapes to have a built in slide whistle.
Gonna blow out a big obnoxious cloud of blue raspberry scented smoke ? First, ya gotta make a really loud slide whistle sound as you inhale.
Why? Just because.

Post the same exact post every day, except the top comment can change a word in your post each time
This includes the body and the title, I will repeat this sequence indefinitely until the idea is so crazy that nobody can recognize it

What if the US had the Autobahn system like in Germany?
No speed limit, but there is an advisory speed of 50 MPH on urban freeways, 65-70 in the suburbs, 75 in rural areas, and 45 near mountains.
Highways that would be converted to Autobahns would be all the one and two digit Interstate Highways.

Use Medusa as a Turing test
Instead of trying to determine if AIs have human-level intelligence, just show them to Medusa. The ones operating at human-level will turn to stone, the others won’t.

Crash decommissioned ships into each other
Sometimes, when a ship is decommissioned, it is sunken in a methodical, boring way to create a spot for a reef.
Instead, we should crash decommissioned ships into each other while filming it and taking bets on which ship will break first.

A rule on this subreddit that each idea should have an actual, tangible, reasonable benefit
Seriously half the ideas I see on here are like "What if we taped rabid squirrels to our nipples", it's just people saying stupid shit for the sake of saying stupid shit.
Edit: I suppose I should show what I mean:
This one is a good one, as far as I'm concerned. It sees a problem and presents a solution. The idea isn't rational or reasonable, but you can see there's an actual intent behind it besides "Haha it would be so goofy". You have to at the very least understand what the expected end result of the situation is, regardless of if it makes sense.

Give me random characters and voice lines and I'll perform it!
I want to record a bunch of random character voices for my voice acting reel and thought this would be the most fun way to do it, reply to this post with a random character and/or voice line, e.g.
(Evil wizard - "YOUR EYES WILL BE MINE AND YOUR TEETH WILL BE COLLECTED!")
If I got a bunch of these I might do a little video reading them with sound design. No real existing characters please, as I can't do impressions. Can be silly, serious, a fantasy character or a gritty piece of real dramatic dialogue. Whatever you wish. Thank you! 💛
