Biodiesel my ass

Millions of Hundred Dollar Ideas is one step closer to millions. The Powered by Gasoline sticker is at least a hundred dollar idea.

We could easily biodiesel your ass. Any time you want. Just bring your greasy ass right on down to the rendering plant. No questions asked. We'll have you pushing pistons in some dirthippie Golf TDI conversion in a matter of a few brief hours.

I'll even make a little sticker - "Powered by braintoast's ass". We can put it right next to the "Buck Fush" sticker.

Thanks for stepping up and doing your part. We'll see you soon. Eat lots of cheeseburgers!

I've implemented at least a thousand $100 ideas. Unfortunately, the Franklins were all written like this:

($100)

My accountant says this isn't a sign of greatness.

Inflation's been worse than I thought.

I like the walk on water shoes.

Tiny line at bottom of sticker:
Made from oil.

I met the guy who run millions... he is an odd man, and seemed like he drank 7-8 pots of coffe per hour. Interesting though.

This video found via MoHDI is indeed one of the funniest things I've seen in a while.

I've always wanted to put a sticker on the transom of my boat that read " I'd rather be stuck in rush-hour traffic" .

This is like a less-extensive, suckier version of the Halfbakery.

This is like a quirkier, funnier version of the Halfbakery.

I love the idea of paying a dollar to have someone praise or punish your pet over the phone. I don't see why this couldn't be extended to praising or punishing humans.

I'm so-so on the execution here but love the idea (and am amused to discover Halfbakery too—thanks!). As an inveterate haver of questionable ideas, I'm entertained to see people putting them on display.

Huh, his "Happy toast" idea has already been done. done many times. Nothing this guy is thinking up is really all that original. I had the "Chinese food vending machine" idea. It's all about implementation, anyone can think things up.

No self-respecting chemistry geek would put that sticker on his car. He'd insist on the more accurate "powered by gasoline and oxygen."

Mr.Encyclopedia, that was the funniest thing I have seen in years.
