Virtual Commute (Jason Alt)

Creativity Wasted

Idea: A virtual-reality simulation of your daily commute to work, to help make you feel like your life has returned to post-Covid normalcy. You'll get the sensation of moving a couple hundred feet every few minutes, just like a real commute. You can simulate driving inconveniences such as stressful traffic jams (by locking the virtual-reality helmet onto your head until you're late logging onto your real work computer), cracked windshields (the crack appears to slowly grow on the VR headset's screen until you pay $65 in real money to get it repaired), and lifespan-reducing smog (by breathing through a pipe which is hooked up to your furnace). There could also be a bus simulation for kids to simulate their daily commute to school, which could include a gadget that throws real spitballs at them to simulate being bullied on a real bus Joe Bates (twitter.com/JoeBatesComedy Comedy Album: https://orcd.co/joe_bates) Jason Alt (twitter.com/JasonEAlt) Joseph Johnson (twitter.com/JJohnsonComedy) Tom Walma (twitter.com/thomaswalma)
