I hope I'm not overstepping my bounds as a newbie by starting this thread, but I thought it might be nice to create a place where people can bounce ideas for their comedic short stories or novels. Now some might say that I am simply creating this thread solely for the reason so I can get feedback on my ideas, and I am utterly indifferent to what other people think up.
To them I say..... uh...
ANYWAY-
The scene is a reality television competition in the vein of "big brother". You get a whole bunch of contestants vying for a two million dollar prize.
Here's the kicker; every one is gay except one person. If the gay people kick the straight guy out, they split the pot. If the straight guys is one of the last two contestants, he gets all the money.
Except that is a lie...
In reality, everyone participating is straight (the only gay fellow was kicked out when he expressed interest in hunting and said he worked in law enforcement) so everyone is trying as hard as they can to convince every other straight contestant that they are queer.
Pretty much it will be simply making fun of people's inborn prejudices and tendency to stereotype.
...So, that's the story I've made an outline for. What ideas and stories have all of you been tossing around?
