Nope. Anything that uses Samsung lithium Ion batteries blows up sooner or later.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

Being creative and "create something new" is not the province of everyone (I am not a really creating person).
I suggest looking at an open source software in a domain you like (music, graphic, personal finance.... whatever ) and look at the different bugs and feature requests that you could work on.
Start small, gain confidence, and work your way to more complex issues and features.
I'd rather be phishing!

How about an extension of virtual reality into real reality?
There's a good fortune to be made selling real halberds, AK's and rocket launchers to gamers
- even better if they got the infinite ammunition cracks already installed.
BTW: My tastes are a bit genteler: all I really want for Christmas is a small portable amiable EMP generator.

Have a look at the work from the demoscene[^]. That's how it started for me. Find a group to join, make a demo, etc...

Well, there are lots of little side projects that you can do to build experience and confidence as well as learning important concepts.
Such As:
A person-to-person TCP/IP chat client and server (networking, sockets, and event driven, asynchronous programming)
A data mining/analysis tool (databases, data structures, and handling large data sets)
A simple MVC application (Web services & applications, RazorViewEngine, TCP/IP & UDP) (P.S. a simple feedback form is great for learning)
More advanced topics:
Write your own {stable}thread pool (yes, it's been over done but you learn a lot about synchronization techniques and asynchronous program flow)
Windows application in Windows Presention Foundation (windows programming, UI design techniques, and all other things aggravating)
Data Access Service with Window Communication Foundation (security, networking, databases, etc...)

Talk about effective advertising, they've even made you spam completely unrelated forums with their adverts. Let me guess...you're one of those people who claim they're not influenced by big corporations?

Ummm no. I've read the comments and realise it is intentional.
Also realise nobody on here is going to go Iceland of the back of this. There's sweet corn on the pizza for Christ sake.
And you guess wrong. I'm not a pretentious twat.
Let me guess...you're one of those people that has not had a root for a very long time?

So why post it? Do you post other adverts you see?
This all harks back to Susan Boyle's album launch where the mistake was first made legitimately and it has become a meme latched onto by Ed Sheeran, and now it seems Iceland are piggy backing onto it as well, pretending it was an unintentional error so that people spread it "OMG Look at this!". That's why it's called "viral marketing".

This should be asked of 82% of Lounge posts. 
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

That could be because 'The Lounge' (C) TM is intended for that purpose?

Sorry, my IQ prevents me from enjoying most of what is put into the Lounge.

There are several ways to interpret that.

Probably true for any statement.

For the amusement value, because the Lounge was so much better in silence for 2 hours.
Thanks for indirectly answering my question though. It's been a long time for you.

How about because it is funny and this is The Lounge Area? Might want to read the guidelines for posts in this area.

I didn't find it funny at all, I find it just cynical advertising and spam, and frustrating that on some people it obviously works.

Seriously go get a hair-cut and some new aftershave, or failing that look on the internet for a lady supplying paid for services. You need it.
