"Chicken Butt"

This was originally 3946 for "an idea that is useless or at least very poorly communcated" and has transformed into a question meaning "How does this mechanism accomplish the task?" There's a TL;DR story here: For Aerial Assist (25" diameter ball), we did a brainstorming sessions for ways to acquire and launch the ball. The next session, we were gathering "half baked" ideas to select two or three for further development. A team member drew a picture of a frame perimeter with a ball centered in it as a presentation. Until prompted for details, he gave no indication of how the ball got there, or how it got out of there. A mentor asked if the robot just laid the ball on the carpet like a chicken lays an egg and walked away from it, or what. IIRC, he actually did have answers, but the picture didn't begin to explain the idea.
