Agreed! So was Facebook--it was just another MySpace clone. Or Google--another search engine. Sometimes the best ideas are seemingly stupid and pointless. I think the name is tongue-in-cheek because "stupid things" tend to become great ideas. I think it's a great idea this is going on.

No, it's not tongue-in-cheek: staggeringly, stupid ideas generally (like, as in 99.9% generally) aren't, or don't become great ideas.

I agree, except you need more 9s.

If you accept that then you've missed the broader point. Not a single founder would want their idea to appear on next years board of stupid ideas to satirise.
