The NS "suggestions and ideas" forum

The spawn of all bad suggestions. If this represented a volcano it would be Mount Doom. (although the only flames you'll see are from the forum-goers)

This forum makes people fear for the future of humanity.

the Suggestions and Ideas forum itself was supposed to be a hub for good suggestions. Now we need a seperate topic to wade through the garbage.

all the gear, no idea

When someone is operating an piece of machinery or a vehicle, usually expensive, with no idea what they're doing.

"That kid just destroyed his clutch trying to do a burnout. All the gear with no idea."
"Look, now he has the hood up taking things apart. Should we tell him the clutch isn't in the engine?"
"......no."

"My brother just spent over eighty grand on a sailboat."
"Has he ever sailed?"
"He went canoeing when he was 10. Once. He flipped the canoe."
"All the gear, no idea"

Theory of the Scientific Method as a Religion and Ideology

A specific application of the broader theory, focusing on how the idea of the scientific method can function as a religion or ideology—worshipped as a source of truth, treated as beyond criticism, used to exclude other ways of knowing. The theory argues that the scientific method, properly understood, is a fallible human tool, not a sacred ritual. But when it's treated as the path to truth, when its procedures are fetishized, when its limitations are ignored—it becomes ideological. The theory calls for treating the scientific method as what it is: a powerful but imperfect tool, not an object of worship.

Example: "He invoked 'the scientific method' as if it were a magic spell, guaranteed to produce truth. The Theory of the Scientific Method as a Religion and Ideology showed what he'd done: turned a tool into a totem, a method into a mantra. He wasn't doing science; he was worshipping it."
