I know this is the Off topic tavern but please dont fill this thread with spam. I highly encourage creativity and wacky ideas. thats why i came here. i need crazy and wild ideas. but i need tem to be focused on helping further the D&D experience

I am running a campaign that is designed to be overpowerd and rediculous. The basis of the campaign is an ancient Chronotyryn (fiend folio 33) wants to collect several artifacts to bolster its global domintation attempt.  (ever seen the show Xiaolin show down?) Obviously the players must collect items first and grow in XP to defeat this fiend.  One of the early artifacts found a bag of infinite  possibilites(BIP). It is an epic bag of holding that is 10,000 years old and  has accrued an ungodly amount of random stuff.  reaching in to the bag a  user has no idea what they will pull because they dont know whats in  the bag. similar to the rod of wonder the BIP deals with items instead  of effects

I am looking for more ideas and inspirations from the D&D community.
items in bag range from destructive and damaging items, tools(almost  always one use only), funny gags, interesting plot twists, mundane/pointless things and more (and yes i will limit the number of pulls from the bag in a play session and all pop culture references will be regarded with proper in/out of game knowledge)

to give you and idea of how it works our current bag includes entries such as.....

>Mouse trap snaps on hand reaching into bag, lose all weapon proficiancy for day unless healchecked dc 25 then only two hours
> Halo Jump pad, deployable whenever they want,  when moving over  jump pad spring 50 feet into the air, no fall damage on landing. (unless  fall farther, like off a cliff)
>functional witches broom fly speed 50 perfect manuverability (functions for one day once activated)
>twinki, after eating gain 50 lbs permanently but also gain temporary +2 con from preservitaves 
>bazooka (launches one fireball cl equal to ECL plus 2d4 bludgeoning  damage from shell on direct hit) make ranged touch  attack for each point you miss AC by the shell lands 5 feet from target in direction determined by DM
>
A nondescript chest, if opened a Green mist pours out, flies and swirls around like living entity and flies of into the distance cackling and laughing
>unlabled flasks of every potion, cure, inflict, and random drinks
>bombomb with lit fuse, base speed 20 detonates in three rounds,  chases random players untill it blows up (effect is fireball with CL of  the groups average ECL)
> 2d6 rabid squirrels
>a dead octopus
>
Dentures soaking in a fizzing glass of water
>War drums begin to play by them selves, have 2 rounds to silence them or orc war party shows up
> A puppy... licks players face and disappears in a puff of pink heart clouds

... got any ideas?

Apologies in advance.  Here be my idear:


Why not?  Gag is gag.  Oh, and that was punny.  And you could always make it a monster, too.  Plus you told us no Spam so, like, you totally made me do this.

I was originally imagining nothing but pics of Spam, to be honest.  Don't know about that now.  Piggles will probably post that Eeeeyyorreee pic cuz that seems to be his thang as of late.

Spam is for poor tasteless people. This image of caviar is much better.

Oh, you people.  You really help me think "dodged a bullet" instead of "wonder what I missed".

I wonder if caviar would be better if you put it on Spam.  Hmm ... maybe that would just make Spam worse ...

Spam is moderately tasty, if put in the right kind of dishes (oven based ones, mainly)

Then again, so air fish eggs in the right kind of dishes (mostly sushi), so I don't know...

It would probably be a terrible combination Tongue out

Yeah, I'm exactly with ya' on this'n.  I don't mind roe on sushi and I imagine Spam would be just fine in some sort of casserole or something.  Together?  Well, I'm not tryin' it no matter how curious I am.
