I wonder if that would work?

Late to the thread, but I want to go back to the OP: is there a reason for making your own rubber chicken? Are there situations in life where a mass produced rubber chicken doesn’t cut it? Is there a world of hand crafted, hand painted artisanal rubber chickens out there that I don’t know about?

I hope the answer is yes.

I would mount it on the wall next to my Billy Bass, and when people asked about it, I would proudly proclaim “I made it!”

Ever have a seemingly impractical idea and say to yourself, “Hmmm…I wonder if that would work?”

You pretty much described the central guiding principle of my life.
A recent realisation of this principle for me was the WobbeDog 9003i

Oh, yeah, the Big Mouth Billy Bob Bass, the bane of retail workers ca. 2000. The grocery store where I worked at the time had them, and at least 100 times a day, somebody would think they were the only person who thought it was funny to trigger it, and all its knockoffs, and you could hear them all over the store.

One of my technicians had a toddler who acted like, well, a toddler, and she was thinking about gettong one of those for her. :smack: I asked her to maybe think about that for a few minutes, and she came back later and said she decided not to buy it.
