Last tag was six years ago, maybe it could just be cleaned up?

Sounds to me like both could be invalidated.

I'm personally in favor of keeping some "vague" tags around, but I can understand removing them if it means less mod work. That said, most of the posts now under bad_idea can probably be moved to various forms of genital_danger_play and something along the lines of sex_while_driving. I'll try to get around to that.
Update:
Road sex: set #32445. Replace with driving sex.
Sharps near genitals: set #32440. Replace with genital_danger_play sharp_teeth and imminent_oral/toothy_fellatio as appropriate. Exceptions:
Guns: set #32442. Replace with gun_in_* and hoplophilia (which we should probably alias to something less obscure). Created the penis_in_gun tag for post #964893. Found licking_gun, which needs to get aliased to gun_lick.
Beaks: set #32446 replace with beakjob.
Bombs: set #32441 replace with explosive_in_* or firework_in_* as appropriate.
set #32444: Harassing/groping a girl, with the framing that this will result in slapstick violence. Possibly it should just be imminent_grope? I've asked in the "Do we have a tag for that" thread.
Now that I'm halfway through with this, yeah, I can see why these need to get invalidated.
It's unwise to assume unwise is used more often than bad_idea and I think it should be replaced.
Unwise sounds cooler tho...

I agree that bad_idea is not a good name for a tag and that most of its uses should be replaced by alternatives with more precise definitions. However, I can't think of a good name for what is happening in post #2761256. It does not seem to fall under any of your current projects (thank you for your service, by the way) and I feel that something like imminent_death or imminent_pain do not capture the artistic intention very well. There is an element of humor that can't be separated from the concept of the character's actions and/or choices being a "bad idea".

Maybe the scenario doesn't need to be encapsulated into a tag
Final Semifinal update:
set:bi_regret_mm: Moved posts to the regret tag, which is another "jokey" tag that can get invalidated or not at a later date.
set:bi_jokes_mm: I'm going to leave the bad_idea tag alone. If we do decide to keep the tag, I vote that this is the kind of content it should have.
post #790698 post #1663819: Moved to it's_a_trap
Stuff I will remove the tag from in a week if nobody has a comment:
set:bi_fire_mm Sex with fire/heat: burning_sex? extra_hot_sex? Nothing exists at the moment. If nobody has any suggestions in a week, I'll just strip the tag. There's no obvious touchpoint that people will use in the future.
set:bi_yes_mm Stuff that actually, factually is a bad_idea. Not in a funny/sexy way; just dangerous. Of course, some of this you could argue is actually funny, which is part of why I think the tag should be invalidated; it's unclear what it means/how it should be used, and a pain to sort anyway. If it's meant to be serious, then it should have a clearer name. dangerous might be a better tag.
set:bi_no_mm Stuff I can't tell why bad_idea was ever added.
