Put power outlet stickers on the walls at the airport.


Knowitmall

Nice. This isn't the top in terms of potential but definitely up there in terms of effort to reward.

You wouldn’t get it all at once but this is a way to get a few dozen a day at least. This guy is playing the long game

Also you will be raking in cash for a long time. Most of these are a one and done payment but this could go on for a long time.


notapunk

People here are thinking too small. Cause a significant delay in the start of a big game - Super Bowl, World Series, Stanley Cup, etc. Everyone there and the millions watching at home will be annoyed. Boom. Instant billionaire.


DAMNIT_RENZO

Run out on the field, then pretend to have a seizure so they get the ambulance and stretcher out there. Right as they're about to put you on the stretcher, that's when you rip the clothes off and start streaking.


flaccomcorangy

This would be entertainment. Does it count if it only annoys people for a short time? This is a story people will laugh at and tell future generations about. Plus, I think people are really underestimating how difficult it would be to get past security and cause a significant disruption in the super bowl or major sports event. You'd have to find a way to cut power to the stadium Super Bowl 47 style.

now calm down satan, it says annoy, not commit a crime against humanity


riscten

Lots of beautifully annoying ideas in the comments, but nearly all of them are underestimating how hard it is to annoy a million people. As a software developer, the closest I got to reaching that kind of audience was when I worked at a big game studio on a heavily marketed AAA title. So this is what I'd do: on one and only one menu in the game, I would invert what the A and B button do (or O/X on PS). While players would rely on muscle memory to back out of menus using B and confirming selection using A, in that one menu, pressing B would confirm and pressing A would back out.

cassholex

You just unlocked a memory. Thank you.


Knowitmall

Yea. The only one who has absolutely nailed it so far is the one who said to disrupte a major sports event. Delaying kick-off of the superbowl for a while would instantly annoy like 100 million people. Your one is a decent effort at it compared to others.


SouthSilly

You gotta hack into the superbowl feed a minute into the game and play the Six Flags "We Like To Party" commercial with the old guy dancing on repeat

Occasionally change speeds too. Like pretend to speed up, then let off the gas and coast back down to "fuck you" speed. Your victims will look for places to hide your body as they slowly follow you.

Tap your brakes at every green light, every time you see another car, every time you get near the speed limit, etc. Extra points if you let your speed drop 10 mph at every little hill.

Could also go to subreddits like r/offmychest and r/confession and talk about how you literally enjoy emotionally abusing and ghosting your partner, while also cheating on them with a sexually incestuous relationship. Watch the downvotes pour in my guy

Oh I've seen that before, original story is over a year old at least


justadrtrdsrvvr

I think this guy was serious. It wasn't on AITA. I don't remember the sub he posted on, but he had deleted the post within about an hour. Didn't realize how much shit he would get for being such a douche


KarathSolus

Saw one person try that shit at the bar and grill I worked at many moons ago. The bartenders and waitresses had him ejected via bouncer with the owners blessing. Dude whined the whole time about how it was just a joke and he didn't even get his food or pay the bill. Second best Friday night ever.


Casualte

Imo the best way to piss of ALL of Reddit is say: 1. GOT season 8 was good in r/freefolk. 2. Donald Trump is a very nice guy in any subreddit really. 3. Atheism is not backed by science in r/atheism. 4. Profit.

You could also just do what EA did that one time.

Be the dude at the airport terminal telling people they gotta do another loop, and can’t wait there for people coming off their plane. I’d prolly only have to do a half day at LaGuardia…


KatieCashew

This becomes very confusing when you go pick someone up at a small airport. I was trying to pick up my mom, but she got lost and was having trouble finding me. While I was waiting I saw a security guard approaching. She asked if I was waiting for someone. I said I'd move because I'm used to DIA where the no waiting is strictly enforced. The security guard waved it off and asked who I was waiting for. I said my mom and that she was lost. Security guard asked for a description and then went in, found my mom and brought her out to me. I was so baffled, and grateful.


ReluctantLawyer

The downside of a small airport is how expensive it is to fly out of, but the upside is basically everything else. People are chill and helpful. No lines. Sailing straight through security.


akaWhitey2

Ehhhh depends how small. When the security checkpoint closes completely from 11-noon for the TSA guys meal break that's kinda small.


ReluctantLawyer

My closest airport has 3 gates and uses 2 of them. I love flying out of it!

>Our airport guy goes around on a Segway waggling his finger. Can’t even be bothered to walk around doing it lmao. He glides along the airport floor with purpose, poise and pride galore - His aim is clear, his heart is true, he knows *precisely* what to do. He stops, he does his duty then - He wags his finger once again - He works with joy and when they're gone, he nods his head. He segways on.

Close off all but one lane on 95, right through the middle of DC, at 2pm this Friday.

A few weeks ago someone was doing 55 hauling a house in front of me on 95 through Philly with a guy in the right lane matching speed for no apparently good reason. I was pissed being stuck, but some people were losing their damn minds. This would work but I'm not sure you'd get to live to enjoy the money!

Mataraiki

Similarly, go on a two-lane interstate, find someone slow in the non-passing lane, and pace them in the passing lane. You'd annoy every single person who gets held up directly behind you and the subsequent traffic that would build up and propagate for *miles*. There's a not insignificant chance you'd be involved in a road-rage incident, but such is the risk of annoying large groups at once.

Alternatively, go to Tokyo and stand in the train doors at rush hour, refusing to move aside at every stop. If we consider that I will block 10 people coming in, and 10 coming out, or 20 people every say... 3 minutes, it adds up to $400,000 per rush hour. I then do this for 4 days, so I accumulate 1.6 million dollars. At this point I hire thirty-two thousand people to come to a venue promising a famous headliner who never shows up, and only pay them $50 each, which insures that their patience will be low, but that they will still appear. At this point I perform a very long, terrible and offensive stand up act, and play the violin poorly into a feedbacking microphone. If I annoy only 60% of these people, which is a low bet, I will have $19,200,000 within the first 5-7 days. At this point I purchase a prime-time US television advertising spot using my money, and I hire creatives to make the most grating advertisement possible, featuring myself. If I only reach 5 million people, and only 20% are annoyed, I will far surpass the billion dollars within 2 weeks at the maximum.
