No Idea Indicator

Sirens and lights, to warn you of impending doom
 
(+1, -1)
  [vote for,
against]

If you are just fresh out of ideas, or the idea you are about to post is not really an idea, rather a pointless "me-too" then the siren starts and the flashing lights begin strobing, setting off Granny's epilepsy all over again.

Excuse me, there seems to be a malfunction with my contraption, I'll get back to you... <distant sounds> *BLART* *BLART* *BLART* *BLART*...Whack! Clunk! ClunkClonkClunk! "Bloody siren... shut up for five seconds... SHIT!. There, that'll fix ya, I pulled ya outta the wall, ya squawkin' bastard!"

Now, where was I?

       By the title, I thought this would be another new voting option on the halfbakery: fishbone, croissant, no idea.

       We already have Neutral for that. Remember, No Decision is still a decision.   

       Sorry, can't talk... have to put by tugng bag id by cheeg...

       I was thinking of clearly distinguishing between "Don't Know" and "Don't Care".   

       There is no malfunction with your contraption.

       I wonder which idea at the bakery has the most neutral votes.

       That 'no decision is still a decision' thing is all very well if you make the decision to select neutral, but it is also the default status. What we need is an indifferent setting, maybe a fishy croissant, or a skeletal pastry lattice with no filling

       I, and my elf , are ambivalent. Or at least I am. I think my elf is ambidextrous.   

       <Gently rolls Granny onto her side and places soft washcloth in her mouth> UB, ya stupid barstard! How many times does we have ta tell ya, Don't be puttin' them ideas from yer dang fool head inta da compyooter-ting. It jest sets da ting off and den dat sets yer Granny off, and ya know she's not gettin' any younger!

       Witha bitta luck, Canuck, ya schmuck (didja like thet one, bo'?), she won't be gittin' no older neither. Then me an' me wife, cousin Patty-Sue, kin move outta cousin Billy-Ray's room, an' let him an' his wife, Cousin Daisy-Mae, do their baby-makin' thang till the cows come home. An' we kin have Granny's room, an' get some dang sleep.
