More likely every photograph is.  Trademarked, if nothing else.  Fuck if it matters.

I like, direct the obviously like minded to our resources.

I'm brainstorming of stuff along the "Fight Club" homework assignemnet route.  
- Pitch a rant in public
- Strike up a conversation with a stranger in a line.
- Geurilla information kiosk.  

At best, this will find the assignee like minded folks, and maybe simialr fucktards for boards / local IRL projects.
At worst, we get ignored or brushed off.  No sweat, not knowing them they were expendable people anyways.

What y'all think?

Holy shit.  Why have I never thought of this?

So there's this stand, like a children's lemonade stand, or Lucy's "The Doctor Is In" thingy, it's labeled "Guerrilla Information Kiosk," and the guy standing there is wearing a shirt that says "Ask me anything!"  Maybe there's a placard on it saying "Today's Theme Is _______ ."  It's stocked with maps of the area and local bus routes, maybe a math textbook or three, an encyclopedia set, and a laptop with an internet connection.
Q: How regularly do you hire 8th graders?
A: We have hired a number of FORMER 8th graders.

Assuming both you and the host are in the US:

IANAL, this is not legal advice, talking to a lawyer may be worthwhile, since if I remember right, you are now owed a large sum of money. a waste of time, you're only owed damages you can prove.

Or just a "Kindle" on a chain. 

I'm glad that you caught that, I almost forgot it.  The idea would basically be what you said, but go beyond anything local tourism would WANT you to know.  For example:

Liquor store locations
Porn shops / theatres
Strip clubs
Likely places to score drugs
Frank assessments of how safe an area is
Quickest route to a walk - in clinic
Cheap tailor / luggage repair (as opposed to hotel)
Where to buy some good boots.
Game stores, and schedules of open games / tournaments / drafts they are running
Schedules of off- beat activities
Where ball games, parkour, acrobatics, or fight clubs tend to happen

It'd be a great way to direct people to some of the lesser acknowledged parts of a city and screen for likeminded folks.

How many pranks could we nest inside one another? Even one inside another may be enough for people to infer more, but if we got three inside one another—holy shit a legend is born.

If my little graphics didn't make it clear, what would be occurring is that a social dynamic would both be a basic prank structure (figure one) and in a larger context would be a collective target interacting with a collective bait, collective revealing mechanism, and collective audience (figure II).

It would be a feat of absolute brilliance to get this to three nests, let alone two, so we should shoot for three.

they already did this in Japan, but before they reached the fifth level, they hit a fundamental limit of the universe: the Pranck-length.

Project Idea:

The Fat Eris Cook Book

the spags of the recipie forum all post their favorite dishes, with pictures.

once we have 15 or 20, we throw it in a book and hit print


book can also contain advice, anecdotes, and straight-up pranks that will make you think you're making some sauce, but it really turns the whole meal bright green

and your urine purple


or, you know, set your kitchen on fire

LMNO

So, intentional culinary sabotage?

We were trying a long troll on a christian wives board a while back, I think there were a few "domestic catastrophe" posts, like throwing an ink cartridge into the washing machine to remove stains.  That could be fun to bring back.

actually, your "cooking with LMNO" thread, would make a really cool regular picture-cookbook, if nicely layouted and printed full colour :) but that might turn out to be slightly expensive...
