I'd call it "Crap people say in the vending room on a university campus"

Seriously. I've been sitting here with this laptop since 11:30 this morning. I've heard so much from so many people, just listening. And then there's the things people bought from the vending machines. And the stuff people cook in the microwave. And the kid who plugged in his laptop, loaded up Bittorrent and jammed it behind the microwave while he went to class.

It's such a sh!tty idea it might just be a bestseller.

Thoughts?

Ex:

Anyway, I'm home now, and completely beat. But, just cuz I said I would, here's a little tidbit.

Ever see someone nuke ramen? I don't mean ramen-in-a-cup, I mean ramen-in-a-brick-with-the-tinfoil-flavor-packet. I mean, I know (or at least I think) they have directions for that on the packet - but I never knew people actually did that. Especially HotChicks(TM). Anyway, while her ramen is faux-cooking inches from Torrent boy's laptop, she sits down at the table with the other guy in the room at the moment. This guy is some kind of rediculous loudmouthed nerd. The kind you wish would STFU because he doesn't know a damned thing and doesn't realize it. She starts talking to him. Just random generic babble about class and stupid crap like that. And then, as she gets up to retrieve her could-have-been-a-terrible-meal-but-is-now-11ty-times-worse from the microwave, she leans over the table and lays it on this guy full on lets-take-off-our-clothes-and-fsck style. Except they didn't take off their clothes and fsck. They just kissed. And she said "I'll see you tonight." And she left, with her tupperware-o-ramen (and left the microwave door open, wtfsck). The guy, a scrawny pencilneck nerd, has this big sh!t-eating grin on his face like "Yeah, I hit that. I'm the man."

So, what have you heard? It's all in the details

I don't have time to go into it now, I only have half an hour before I have to go to work. But lets just say it's been... Interesting. So many little tiny snapshots of people's lives. Maybe if I'm not too badly beat when I get home.
 
I say get some of it down for a while, offer it to your circle of friends and whatnot, see what they think.
Then realize that they're probably just humoring you, so post it on the net. Get reactions.
Realize that they're ridiculing you without reading it, decide to talk to a real editor.
Editor thinks it's genius, and you sell a bajillion copies.

Remember Sqube told you what to do, and send him a million bucks.
