Turn Inadequacies Into Virtues by THE SHAG PILE 2020

An old Water Pistols song from the 80s, reprised by The Shag Pile in 2020 on their non-selling album "Beyond Belief."
Taj Records are pioneers of the new technology AS (Artificial Stupidity), which launched the career of one of their trainee IT staff, Espawn Skum, a geek employed accidentally after a forgotten work placement saw poor Espawn locked in an attic with nothing to eat except unsold CD covers and Tippex. This increased his IQ tenfold.
The revolutionary software allows users to take an idea that seems logical or a system that is operating well and replace it with an incredibly stupid and ineffective alternative.
Espawn has used his creation to take a succesful social media site and run it into the ground, and has similar plans for electric cars as well as space travel. The use of butter at Skum's insistence instead of rocket fuel at a recent NASA launch went widely unreported, an attempt by "old school" journalists to get it out being adjudged a waste of time by editors trying to get rid of the monicker of "fake news" - "who'd believe that?" said BBC director general Tommy Robinson.
Because of tariffs, the new AS application is only open to a small number of very wealthy people.
