Ant-Themed Perfume Line Called:

'Pheromatticas'

Each 'pheromatic' is scent command the unique electronic dispenser creates custom 'phrases' or 'scentences' in the secret Formic language.

Pheromatics:
Formica - Acidic and bracing. Salt, copper, gasoline
Vector - Enticing and mysterious. Spice shop, smoke, library paste, ash
Diapause - Soothing and sleepy. Feathers, coco, yeast, beeswax
Bivouac - Bold and Brave. Shoe polish, gun powder, lathe oil
Alate - Regal and decadent. Ambergris, orchids.

This idea is so strange I have a feeling it would work.

Put different ants on each box. Have an inexplicable ad campaign that's basically slightly creepy art-films about ants, intercut with handsome people giving you a knowing lookin. Refuse to explain further.

Set the price absurdly high.

Anyone want to invest?

@futurebird Million dollar idea, and to prove it:

@JonKramer

I wish "pet rocks" leaned into the geology angle a bit more... they could have had different breeds...

Also as much as people call the pet rock absurd... people have always liked rocks since the dawn of time. Pity they used exceptionally boring ones, it might have been more than just a flash in the pan "joke product"

@futurebird @JonKramer
I used to have a pet rock.
People told me it was schist, but I thought it was gneiss...

@blueshiftnz @JonKramer

why

what did i do to you to deserve this?

@futurebird @JonKramer
As long as you don't take me for granite

@blueshiftnz @futurebird @JonKramer

Truly, be careful what you take for granite, or you shale regret it.

@NinjaDebugger @blueshiftnz @futurebird This conversation is close to rock bottom now...
