More than half-a-century ago, a very bright and witty man named Leonard Stern created a word game that came to be known as Mad Libs. (You can read about the history of the whole concept HERE.)
I am certain that many of you, or more likely most of you, have played the game at a party sometime during the course of your lives. For those of you that haven’t, the concept is pretty simple: You start with something like a passage from a book, the Preamble to the Constitution, a popular song, or even a page from an instructional manual, replace many of the key words with blanks and ask people to fill them in with appropriate parts of speech (noun, verb, adjective, etc.). The results range from the mildly humorous to the uproariously funny depending on the quality (or lack thereof) of the words given.
I have long had the idea of playing an online version of the game using a particularly unhinged rant from a liberal, but to do it right, one needs lots of participants. Well, now that I have an appropriately sized audience at my disposal to try this, why don’t we have a little fun?
The rules are simple. I am going to tell you what types of words I need and you are going to provide me with some quality words (i.e., more creative nouns than, say, “chair” or “table”). Since we need so many nouns, verbs and adjectives, everyone can start by offering me one each of those, then you may choose a word that fits one of the other needed categories.
Here’s the thing: KEEP IT CLEAN! Pretend you are at a party with your parents and various uncles and aunts and Grandma and the pastor from your church and the sweet old lady who lives next door. Sure, a little spice is nice, a little double entendre here and there is even encouraged, but the thing is, the liberal loon who wrote the source material filled it with more filth than you could pile in the back of a fleet of manure trucks, so we’re going to actually clean it up for them.
It’s a long rant, so we need plenty of words. But in order to give everybody a chance to play, I am going to ask each of you to please only submit a list of words once every half hour or so (and no fair hauling out a drawer full of sock puppets) and to limit your responses to 1 verb, 1 noun, 1 adjective and 1 “other” word per entry. I will try to be fair when filling the puzzle in and use the words in the order in which they are received provided they fit the proper mold. Please indicate what types of words you are giving me in parentheses next to the word.
***UPDATE (8:00 pm CDT, Sat Sept 5, 2009):***
The results post is now up! Enjoy!
Here’s what I’ll need:
43 Adjectives
36 Nouns
23 Plural Nouns
14 Verbs
9 Verbs Ending in -ing
2 Verbs Ending in -s
10 Verbs, Past Tense
***UPDATE (2:00 am CDT, Sat Sept 5, 2009):***
This project has required an overwhelming amount of time to sift through and prepare, I hope to have it completed by tonight. Thanks for your patience!
I am moving this below the fold because I am no longer accepting any entries for the following categories! Consider them closed, I have way too many already!!! Thanx everybody!
(If you still want to play, look at the ones above the fold and limit yourself to no more than 1 of each, but I am quickly approaching a full boat on everything.)
A la carte:
1 Adverb
1 “Belief System” (Not necessarily religious in nature, think -ism.)
1 Bodily Malfunction (Does not necessarily need to involve the expelling of waste.)
1 Body Part (No, none of those! Play nice!)
1 Direction (Think compass points or how you might tell some one to turn.)
7 Famous People (Be creative.)
1 Fictional Character
3 Groups of People (Please avoid ethnic slurs.)
2 Historical Events
1 Historical Figure
1 Living Thing
1 Mental Condition
1 Name (Not necessarily a famous person.)
1 Nickname
13 Nonsense Words (Have fun with these!)
7 Places (Can be a proper place, like a city or a planet, or a generality, such as a room or building.)
1 Procedure (Not necessarily of the medical variety, any task will do.)
1 Profession
1 Substance
Even if someone has beaten you to something on the list, feel free to swing at it anyway, because if the first one is a reject for any reason I may move to the next one on the list (or if someone hits a real doozy of a home run, I may break the rules and take their answer over something more blah.) Also, there’s always a chance I miscounted somewhere, so an extra one or two won’t hurt.
After a day or two, I will gather the results and publish a brand new, much more sensible rant for our little friend, along with some kind of hint at where to find the original (though I may not link it directly, I do not wish to infect Frank’s blog with those sorts of cooties.)
Have fun!
