Ah, this is amusingly true.

I suppose the ubiquitous nature of smart phones gives the common person more exposure to software than ever before, therefore compelling some to pitch half baked app ideas ('how about an app like Facebook, but in 3D!').

You never know though, there might be some buried gold in some suggestions. You just need your stupid-crap filter set on high :)

There's a technique for getting out of the state when you're out of ideas (writer's block & the like.) Generate a few purposefully silly or outlandish ideas and work from that.
