Up working late, & I just had one of those epiphanies that merits the use of this word:
Schnapsidee
[from the German Schnaps "booze" and Idee "idea"]
"An idea that seems clever/brilliant at first but turns out to be stupid on second thought."
I mean, I haven't quite reached "second thought" yet, but something big just fell into place for me that *might* make for a brilliant essay pitch or turn out to be, well... you read the definition.
Only one way to tell. 🙃
