Things That Would Blow Your Mind

Off Topic

As a follow-up to the “Uncontacted Amazon Tribe” thread, I was thinking about what if I were in what is essentially a prehistoric tribe and had no knowledge of other humans and their scientific and technological inventions. What sort of little, everyday things could they sneak into my village at night that would completely blow my mind (excluding complex machinery, because we wouldn’t be able to figure it out)? My aim was to find something that would be funny for outsiders to view on tv, a la “The Truman Show”.

What I came up with first was a porno magazine. Second, I thought of a SkyMall catalog.

What are some other items that deserve to be on the list?

Curling in a squat rack.

Jamie Eason.

Is a refrigerator a complex machine? The “cold box” would probably fuck with their heads.

Otherwise, I think a lot of current-day foods would probably seem really odd: Corn Dogs, Cupcakes, Cheez-Whiz, Fruit by the Foot, etc etc

Can you imagine eating nothing but meat and leafs your whole life, and then having a cupcake show up?

A Ronnie Coleman.

You get pissed when they mention Jamie Eason, but its cool when they mention Ronnie Coleman. You damn Liberals.

A gun. Specifically a Desert Eagle with a full. The first shot going off would be Oscar material.

Soda.

Lava lamp.

Your average fat whiney overweight women with an entitlement syndrome.

Back when Pamela Andersen was on Baywatch, I had a similar thought. I thought ‘what if Pam showed up in one of those african tribes where the women are walking around topless with their breasts hanging down to their belly buttons like nothin more than strings’. I wondered if they would even see her as human. Certainly she would blow their mind with the blonde hair and the firm voluptuous body.

DB, I think a zipper would be a big hit in your scenario.

Well, she is mostly plastic… that’s sort of “thing” like.

Groucho glasses, paint-ball guns, whoopee cushions, and some FUBU t-shirts.

I’ll keep it simple- a mirror.

Or even better… VELCRO.

Of course a portable TV or a cell phone would freak them out but would likely have them roasting your voodoo ass for dinner.

I assume they’ve seen their reflection in standing-water.

I’ll stick with the bathroom theme though: A functioning toilet. “Where poop go!?!?”

CD. “Music comes from THAT?”

19

Coffee. Can you imagine how they would react?
