Sticking my finger in the barrel of a cops gun so it blows up in their face.

Then a large boxing glove pops out of the flower on my chest, and knocks the fucker to the next county.

Gonna see if i can cross over to the apartment opposite me by not looking down. This could be a miracle for transportation!

quediuspayu@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 50 pts · 208d (1 reply)

If that doesn't work let's try next floating while following the smell of a pie.

thebestaquaman@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 208d

The possibilities for actuality are enormous here!

SkyezOpen@lemmy.world · 19 pts · 208d (2 replies)

I thought about it, but I think that's powered by not knowing you're in the air. The fall is triggered by the realization that you aren't on the ground, not the action of l looking down. I'm just a layman though. A comic physicist can correct me if they want.

troglodytis@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 208d

A comic physician could draw a bridge under ya

thebestaquaman@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 208d

To me this is an open question, gonna try tomorrow and report back.

Hire a bird to paint a realistic-looking tunnel with my workplace behind it on my garage door, and drastically reduce commute times.

Damn! You beat me to it!

I'm going to blow into my thumb and make my dick huge.

WR5@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 208d

In a similar thought, I was thinking of asking people for help making my thumb huge...

Carry around a ACME black hole, just in case.

Apeman42@lemmy.world · 17 pts · 208d

Launching out of a cannon and floating to safety at the end by opening a very small umbrella.

Having a little hat with a propeller that allows me to fly

moondoggie@lemmy.world · 16 pts · 208d

Imma buy a LOT of anvils

Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world · 14 pts · 208d

I don't think anyone has mentioned buying some invisible paint!

Kepion@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 14 pts · 208d

Amazed nobody has said float through the air on the waft of a delicious pie yet

klymilark@herbicide.fallcounty.omg.lol · 13 pts · 208d

Honestly I think having someone pull a giant mallet out and squish me like a pancake would fix me.

Painting a door on a wall that actually works

AniZaeger@lemmy.world · 12 pts · 208d (1 reply)

I work as a slot technician. One of our jobs is moving slot machines with hand trucks. When setting them down, one typically counterbalances the weight of the machine with their body. I wanna get catapulted across the casino floor, fly through the air while screaming like Goofy, and hit the wall leaving a silhouette-shaped hole.

Thankfully, the only injury I should sustain is little coins going around my head.

oneser@lemmy.zip · 4 pts · 208d

Which, in this economy, seems less like an injury and more a reward.

Deebster@infosec.pub · 12 pts · 208d

Farting so hard I fly

Una@europe.pub · 11 pts · 208d (2 replies)

Standing in air and looking down for a sec

Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 208d (1 reply)

Probably don't want to look down.

Una@europe.pub · 11 pts · 208d

Nah, no worries. I can't die, I'll just make huge human shaped hole and crawl out of it hurt.

callyral@pawb.social · 11 pts · 208d (1 reply)

Draw a tunnel or a door on a wall and see where it leads. Perhaps into the room on the other side, maybe into a pocket dimension.

WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today · 1 pts · 208d

Yep! Hoping into a painting on the wall, before the cartoon physics wear off, like Mario in a painting.

Just getting out of here forever.

Ludicrous0251@piefed.zip · 11 pts · 208d (3 replies)

I'm going to Costco and buying a palette of bananas.

I can probably cut my commute time by 80% and sow mass chaos in the process.

Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 208d

Now THAT'S Ludacris.

usualsuspect191@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 208d (1 reply)

Is painting with bananas a cartoon thing I'm not familiar with?

thethunderwolf@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 208d

no, palette like the wooden frame thing

and the bananas are for mariokart purposes

DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 208d

This depends on whether it's permanent or transitory. I don't want to be half-way through a stunt...

5ibelius9insterberg@feddit.org · 10 pts · 208d

Jump from the highest building in town and use my pants as a parachute.

Cut down a tree by standing on a branch and cutting the branch from the tree.

lenz@lemmy.ml · 9 pts · 208d (3 replies)

Dress as a scientist with a labcoat, and build something really quickly by pulling tools out of nowhere as a giant cloud of steam covers up what I’m doing, revealing a giant scientific looking device that is labeled “restore normal laws of physics for everyone except me”. Push the button. Now I am the only one running on cartoon logic. I have hopefully prevented others from destroying the Earth by exploding giant bombs or whatever. Or racists from coming up with a “kill all non-white people” virus. Or a variety of other horrors.

Then do things like build an anti-corruption ray and fire it at major government buildings. Panacea-ray to be given to hospitals. Climate-change regulation machine. Etc. Lots of different rays lmao.

Come up with plan to reduce suffering in the universe and harness cartoon physics into technology without someone being able to exploit this awesome power for evil. Do not do this alone. Gather others. Watch cartoons for ideas. Think this bs through a lot more.

I think I’d build a time-stopping device with immunity necklaces to place around the necks of the smartest and most compassionate people on Earth (which I’d use another tracking device to find) to give everybody time to think through ideas on what to do. That way everyone in the hospitals could stop dying while we think through ideas, giving us time to save them. Probably end up giving others the cartoon physics power after building a device to find the best candidates for the responsibility, and shooting them with the anti-corruption ray.

Probably shoot MYSELF with the anti-corruption ray to keep myself from going insane with power.

Fix the world, then later, fix the universe. End involuntary suffering. End involuntary death for those who do not wish to die. Fix entropy. Have fun forever.

Lumisal@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 207d (2 replies)

Why not just make a "super wonder machine" that fixes everything with a single button then?

lenz@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 207d (1 reply)

Fear of how the cartoon genie will interpret it lmao.

Lumisal@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 207d

Phone call someone and during the split screen physically jump into their side of the call.

tunnel through things using paint

jubilationtcornpone@sh.itjust.works · 8 pts · 208d

Step #1: Integrate "AI" into all ACME products; including anvils and dynamite.

Step #2: Draft press release that we expect to have solved the "roadrunner conundrum" by the end of the third quarter.

Step #3: Repeat Step #2 for a couple of years.

Step #4: Fail to deliver on the promise of Step #2.

Step #5: Exit the business with my now substantial fortune, leaving the Wyle E. Coyote holding the bag.

Kolanaki@pawb.social · 8 pts · 208d

I'm flattening myself into pancake to fit through the crack of a door, and then walking off a cliff without looking down to fly. I may also want a drink, so I'll just reach off camera and grab one.

RBWells@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 208d (10 replies)

Boing! Boing! Jumping off a roof so I can bounce bounce bounce, I can't jump for shit IRL and I want to.

Also maybe some NSFW stuff I am not about to detail.

Jerb322@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 208d

I have a reoccurring dream about that.

Bouncing, that is. Cough, cough....

myotheraccount@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 208d

Have you tried a trampoline?

(For the bounce - but also for NSFW stuff I guess..)

WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today · 1 pts · 208d (7 replies)

Just what kind of cartoon has NSFW cartoon physics? How would that even work?

ClassifiedPancake@discuss.tchncs.de · 3 pts · 208d (3 replies)

Hentai

WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today · 1 pts · 207d (2 replies)

Predictable. But is the physics in it wacky?

ClassifiedPancake@discuss.tchncs.de · 3 pts · 207d (1 reply)

Women in Hentai are just hollow. You can push through from top to bottom.

WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today · 2 pts · 207d

Hmm...yeah, there might be something to it there.

Run down the beach to see how far I can get across the lake before I start sinking.

AceFuzzLord@lemmy.zip · 7 pts · 208d (3 replies)

If it counts, I'd love to have a portable black circle disk thing like in Toontown so I could return home in an instant.

If that doesn't count, I wouldn't mind having falls only cause me to accordion and not take much, if any, damage if I land on my feet paws.

Edit: Instant, not instance.

Also, realized being able to grab things from thought bubbles visible only to me would be nice. Need to defend myself? I now have a, hopefully, fully loaded glock whenever I need one.

WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today · 2 pts · 208d (2 replies)

But the glock just makes clean, non-bleeding holes.

AceFuzzLord@lemmy.zip · 2 pts · 207d (1 reply)

Didn't think of that. And now I'm left wondering what the next best thing would be, besides something like maybe a metal bat or pipe.

WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today · 2 pts · 207d

Shredder/paint thinner?

Lumisal@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 207d

And have it drift where hurricanes hit hardest.

Alternatively, with some help:

So it can float away from Canada and Mexico.

Use a seesaw-style lever and fulcrum to give free rides into space. I want a turn, too.

58008@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 208d

I'm gonna get a stupidly-hot wife despite being a fat layabout piece of shit with a clear neurological condition.

I guess that's not really physics related, so I'll also add "gracefully float towards delicious food on a wafting scent trail". I could toss a burger down a canyon and use the scent trail to lower myself down safely. Like a Portal gun, but for fat layabout pieces of shit with clear neurological conditions 👍

MehBlah@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 208d

I'm going to walk off a cliff with my eyes closed and see how far I can get before I fall.

Then that road runner is going to get whats coming to it.

toiletobserver@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 208d (2 replies)

I'm gonna sneak up behind you, and...

MEEP! MEEP!

WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today · 1 pts · 208d (1 reply)

What's stopping you from doing that anyway?

toiletobserver@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 207d

Currently, people just get startled and upset. In the other world, their head will be stuck in the ceiling, which will be hilarious.

zeppo@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 208d

I’ll jump up, pump my legs and air swim up to the top of a tree.

Alvaro@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 4 pts · 208d

Run off a cliff and never look down = flight.

Also have an enemy draw a really cool place on a wall and run through it.

yermaw@sh.itjust.works · 4 pts · 208d

Literally lifting myself up by my bootstraps. Fuck waiting for the lift.

csm10495@sh.itjust.works · 4 pts · 208d

I'll start running but build up speed by running in place first. Also that will have a distinct sound effect.

Probably still gonna hurt, but not anywhere near as much, and my body will not be, you know, liquified/dismembered, just comically singed.

I'm lasooing the moon closer, so I can climb on and get away from this place.
