Mad Libs, yo.

 
  • Mad Libs, yo.

    I posted this once but in a less than appropriate thread, but it's still really cool i think. so give it a go. It's a mad lib based on a paragraph already written that i'll call "An Inspiration?" Fill in the blanks and sometime later this afternoon, i'll fill submissions in. be as outrageous as you want. Jesus is not watching. He's watching re-runs of the OC on cable.

  • in case this idea is completely foreign to anyone.
    here's an example of what will occur.

    original sentence:
    richard lets girls stick their fingers up his nose.

    then i take out girls, fingers, nose.

    that translates to: plural noun, plural noun, noun.

    then someone else fills in those:

    clowns, sport utility vehicles, pigeon.

    then it gets fed back into the original.

    richard lets clowns stick sport utility vehicles up his pigeon.

    see? verbal mayhem.

    vicious lies.
    and if it's true then you're the one who gave IT to me...

  • no way, man. i never stick my fingers in someone's nose without protection....

    aradnuk - wore is a past tense verb like ran or swam. you need a present tense verb like swim, run, play, etc.

    edit: sorry, what a time to typo ;) i meant verb not wore again.
