A_O got it right. There's nothing too outlandish or stupid of an idea for a story. Look at Dogscape, it's a dog planet, in that it's inhabited by dogs as well as being a dog itself. At least I think that's how the story goes, it's been a while since I've read it. That's a pretty outlandish idea for a story, yet it works well. As for a stupid idea, what about a Mickey Mouse that pulls off his head to have yellow blow squirt out of it? That's pretty stupid, but it's the punchline for one of the best know creepypastas out there.

If someone told me that those were the plots for a story that I would have to write, I would think they were too stupid or outlandish, but the authors of both those stories did a pretty good job. Now, look at some of the worse stories, they pretty much all have to do with someone being bullied and turning into a killer. JtK, Jane the Killer, Tick Tock: Your Time is up, and so on. That isn't a bad idea at all, but just done so poorly that no one likes it.

So, with all that being said, it all depends upon how well the story is written. I poorly written story is going to get a good amount of hate, while something that is written well goes on to make a name for itself. Now the story that you proposed could be done well. It's an interesting enough idea and if written well it would be great. But that's the problem.
