Colorless Green Ideas Sleep Furiously

Phrase - An unnecessarily long and extremely boring speech that could have been done in less time and conveys little to no useful meaning.
Steven Pinker's Big think speach on linguistics was a real colorless green ideas sleep furiously moment.

A candle idea

Not the brightest idea someone can come up with, but enough to get the job done.
Shit, I dropped my wallet down there. Can you help me get it out?

Hold on, I got a candle idea (Proceeds to use a fishing rod instead of a grabber to fetch it. They successfully retrieve it but in the process make a clown out of themselves.)

manager of ideas

Customers at nightclubs who assume this position have free reign to redesign the club to their liking and also all the bouncers must follow their orders.
Dom appointed himself the manager of ideas at the velvet dog and thus the bouncer did not kick him out of the club when he put a plant in the toilet bowel.

That's the 3rd time you've silenced me. So it's 3 to 0 now. My mind I your meat Gundam did make you improve but I still haven't gotten to use anybody else's did.

If your so smart then why am I stealing your ideas

Do you see how retarded that sounds when you read it?
A retard "If your so smart then why am I stealing your ideas? Huh!? You ever think of THAT?"

Hym "Why would you steal the ideas of someone who's less intelligent than you? This is what I'm talking about guys. This is the kind of shit people say to me. If I'm so smart then why are they stealing my ideas instead of using their own supposedly equally smart ideas? You're stealing them because they're worth more than literally anything else you could steal. Literally. Which is why the only equivalent recourse is the child murder. There is no split. You would need an entirely new category that goes beyond grand larceny to describe this. Super-Omega Larceny Minor (It's not supreme because I'm not the one doing it). But really! How stupid are these people 'If you're so smart... Why am I stealing from you?' It's really the best they can do. If I'm not so smart what is there to steal. There wouldn't be anything to steal you fucking idiot."
