Image Challenge suggestionsWe think a good challenge idea is like the opening line of a joke, say "If ads told the truth... Guinness would say 'It makes you fat, and your shit turn black.'"
Maybe you have other ideas.
We're going to leave this thread open, so feel free to add ideas at any time. BTW: Please use the "i like this" button. Your voting really helps the good ideas bubble-up, and the very best will be used in the Image Challenge itself.

Whatever you wantI'm bored of people moaning that the challenge is shit. Let them decide for themselves, and stop moaning for Internet's sake.
PS: If anyone moans about this challenge; ban them. Then Hawking them.

Summer of neutralityIn the spirit of all that is British, let us not get caught up by the media with the proposed 'Summer of rage', let us instead opt for the summer of mundanity and neutrality.
Show us pictures of how we'll be soaking up the summer, maybe doing the ironing in the garden or washing your car (possibly wearing a rather naff denim jacket?)

Gods get a real jobWhat will the Gods to when atheistic becomes universally accepted?
The people have created countless gods over the millennia and now they need to find real jobs.
What would Thor be doing now? Shiva? Isis?

the rif monster"she was riffed", or as a dutch colleague spells it, "rift", which has a certain resonance, or, "he got it in the big rif", or "they're riffing all the new hires"
rif == reduction in force == management consultant lizard speak
what does the rif monster look like? did he get you or did you survive? were there tentacles? slime? or both?
