New Business Idea: Consideration Credit Exchange
Nov 3, 2008 Ideas
Tired of being nice, considerate, and compassionate all the time? Now with Consideration credits, you can be a total, raging, asshole. It works like this:
You pay the Consideration Credit Exchange (CCE) a yearly fee. You are now free to be a total dick because your contribution is used to offset your behavior. The CCE goes out into the world and does good deeds. They make people feel happy. They commit random acts of kindness.
For a yearly fee you get a card for your wallet, and a bumper sticker. Cut someone off in traffic? Don’t worry – they’ll see your CCE sticker and know that somewhere else, someone is being nice. Being a total dick weed to an underpaid clerk who doesn’t deserve your abuse? Flash them your CCE card. They’ll be comforted by the fact that somewhere, someone is being treated with dignity and respect.
Your karma and your conscience, not to mention the world, will thank you.

This might make a lovely holiday gift idea, too!
Sort of a “trial size”, as it were, with a nice ribbon and a card, something like “Seasons Greetings! I hope this lets you finally be the asshole you’ve always wanted to be!”
Maybe a “CCE-a-Month Club”? Twelve different credits, all to compensate for different jerky behaviors?
Could be a version for Valentine’s Day, that’s not too far away to think about!

Man, there are so many ways you could take it? Holiday themes are a nice idea. Miss a birthday? No Problem! Forget flowers? All is forgiven!
