Trumpit   (+1, -9)  [vote for, against]
A musical instrument that plays Trump's speeches in the tones you set it to

Good for anybody's voice, but I suppose the first clients will be those who fondly remember and miss his daily speeches.

It looks like a trumpet, controlled with MIDI by the buttons, and through a mouthpiece serves as an electronic wind instrument (an EWI) giving added emphasis or slight voice changes.

A better version would also divide the speech into syllables and play each syllable with each new note you play.

An advanced version could catch your rhythm and play out the words in time to your tune.

This is a musical instrument, to be played in real-time, and not an app that creates the wave file by connecting the notes and the speech.

Enjoy

That's a great one!! 8th.

Since there's no way to Like annotations, I upvoted your aboption idea.

And to @Rayford for alerting me to the fact that my ideas are mostly annoying. I upvoted A cold day for a kiddie pool. And I'm sorry for any annoyance I cause.
-- pashute, Feb 09 2021


Never apologize, it's a sign of weakness.

Never negotiate - same thing. If you're in a strong position, you can just demand - and get - what you want. Only the weak - or those lacking resolve - seek to negotiate.

Never explain.

And don't forget Rule Nine.

I'm ribbing you, pashute for the purpose of the joke. Take no offense. But I am hoping that we can be past the Trump idea era...

Rule Nine: never agree with 8th. It's a sign of primitive animalism.

//Never negotiate//

You're just not very good at it, are you?

"resistance is futile" is a pretty bad way to get people to agree to be assimilated. Even if diplomacy is not necessary it could certainly have been helpful. In this way the Borg are depicted as acting pretty stupid.

At least they could have tried tricking their way onboard first.

//agree to be assimilated// Apart from my nagging doubts that this is all a euphamism (arse-immolated? Assynt-oleated? sin-elated?) I think this explains a lot.

Consider. "resistance is futile" - i.e. if you don't wish to be arse-immolated, it doesn't matter.

Therefore the overall demographic of people who become Assynt-oleated will include a general balance of people who are in favour of it and people who are not.

Quite possibly there will be a greater preponderance of individuals not in favour, otherwise there would be less need to constantly explain the working principle "resistance is futile"/ Like how you have a sign in a municipal car-park saying "no ball games" but much less often "no Ancient Greek hoplite drilling", this tells you the kinds of activities that are more common.

Therefore, we have a situation where individuals who don't agree with the idea of being sin-elated, nonetheless becoming part of a collective, and therefore having equal weight into the collective decision making and policy guidance and third-party interaction protocols and other kinds of collective responsibility and governance procedures.

Is it then no wonder that the collective of grumpy un-co-operative individuals, with sore buttocks, behave in such a socially disfunctional, juevenile and frankly pitiful way?

I went to Normzone's idea, decided it looked good but couldn't give it a bun, because I've already done so at some point in the past. So either: 1. I'm going senile. Or 2. I'm plagiarizing while in denial.
