In an era where hackathons are being held by corporations and entrepreneurs to jumpstart professional innovation, it's time to show them why we hack: for the lulz, friends.  All about the lulz.
So let's show others how to mess around.
Find a problem...that no one has (this is integral).
Then hack an awesome solution.
The first Stupid Hackathons were held on the east & west coasts, so check out their winning entries for inspiration:
HOW YOU CAN HELP:
  • Spread the word, for God's sake!  Let's draw in people outside our little city!
  • But don't take this too seriously, people.
  • Are you a graphic designer?  I dare you to design some ridiculous marketing!
  • Sponsors and partner organizations?  All welcome, but all incentives/awards should be appropriately farcical.
It's on the calendar, which means it's official.
I will cross-post this on the public list shortly, and then it will be unstoppable!
