The "I'm gonna go hunt..." Alphabet Game

ROFLMAO, Triplash!!!! Man, you have power in those magic words of yours! I would not invoke such powerful entities without due consideration aforehand. (Silly spellchecker, "aforehand" is too a proper word!) Anyhow, I saw your reply and transformation of Wabasha, MN to WabaSHAM (hee hee) and now am helpless with laughter so some other Titan is gonna have to continue our journey to the letter Y. ;D

Well, I want to set our final destination as Zarathustra, the planet where Little Fuzzy was found.

OK folks...are we hunted out or do we have another quest in store?? 8)

How about a different direction? Let's hunt down some Rhymes next. Use at least two rhyming words in the same sentence (but more is funner! :D ), although only one of them has to start with the current letter. Like for A you could say:

Apple-flavored Snapple makes me need to take a napple.

So.... something like Bonana Fanna Fo Riplash, Triplash! is okay? :)

Brilliant, Triplash! Thanks!!

I'm gonna be Snug as a Bug in a Rug, which was Dug up outta the ground by a Pug, which I Hugged, even though I'd Lugged that Rug out and buried it after I spilled too many Mugs of ale on it when I Slugged them, having Tugged the ale out of a tap I had installed last summer... uh, when I go to sleep tonight. It's a little chilly.

/...aaaand I'm spent.

As a fine friend of mine used to say all the time, when lookin' for a rhyme; it has to fit the line.

Last night, while walking up the stair,

I met a GUY who wasn't there.

He wasn't there again today...

Oh how I wish he'd go away!

Merseine · May 07, 2013, 02:21:24 AM

Hink pink. Or Hinkety pinkety. Depending on how many syllables you need.

Oh. Wait. Y'all didn't grow up in my family, so I need to explain this weirdness, don't I?

All right - Hink Pink was one of those "traveling in the station wagon on vacation" car games that we played. When you were It, you'd think of a rhyming two word phrase (like "stable table") and announce that you had (in this case, with 2 syllables) a "Hinky Pinky" and describe the phrase so people could guess it. Still going with "stable table" you could say "a non-rocking breakfast surface" or something like that.

If your phrase was something like "clown frown" then it would be a Hink Pink. If it was "stationary stationery" (odd because we discouraged homonyms) it would be a "Hinketaly Pinketaly" and so on.

We've already covered the fact that I'm weird. This just expounds on it. :o

The ink in the sink wasn't left there by Tink; it wasn't pink, nor did it stink; yet who'd leave ink in the sink?

Weird is one of the things I like best about people, especially those I consider my friends! Sounds like you had a very kewl upbringing and family!! However, I am going with Triplash's examples on how this round is played, which I believe is simply fit in as many fun rhymes as possible. The Rhyming Two Word Phrase game, maybe you could lead it when we get back to A? 8)

I wonder if Hinky Pinky could be related to Hinky Dinky (parlez-vous)? Here's the news from Ak-Sar-Ben! http://hinkydinky.net/hinky-dinky-history/

I saw this girl, and man, she had Junk in the trunk! It stunk, under her bunk, we needed to dunk it in cleaner to get rid of the funk and gunk, and it was heavy, it needed some hunks to lunk it around. They were punks, but they were cool about it, even if a little emo.

Yes! Exactly! Also, I wish I had an interesting family like some of you guys. My fam's okay and all, but every last one is a muggle. It's horrible. :-\

That's not just for this game, my friend. That's practically my life philosophy.

But I know, I know, it's my turn so I'll go. We can't ride slow-mo, gotta flow till we glow. Let me grab a cup o' joe and we can tackle any foe. We don't rake in the dough, but we'll stand toe-to-toe. And when we can't throw no mo', we'll know we brought it fo' sho'.

*drops mic* Worrrd. 8)

Merseine · May 09, 2013, 12:10:20 PM

When we have another hunt, I'm gonna suggest "song lyrics" because I SO wanted to put "Lolly, lolly, lolly get your adverbs here." But there's very little rhyming in that song. Yes, lolly DOES rhyme with lolly...but that would lead to *headdesk* moments.

So...L?

Lake flake and local beefcake Jake was on the make, so he took his grubstake to fake lake keepsakes so he could buy hoecakes and milkshakes for his mandrake, but the mistake was followed by earthquakes which brought him awake.

Triplash · May 11, 2013, 06:44:06 AM

Ooh yeah, song lyrics sounds like a good'un. :D

Let's see, M. ...Does "mmmm-hmmm" count?

I too agree with the song lyrics being next. In case that matters.

ROFL.

That's indeed Quite the post you made there.
Such a polite way you decided to share.
And although it's sublime
there are more words to rhyme,
You should type them on up, if you dare.

/I'm kinda proud of myself for that. :D
//yeah yeah, not exactly the rules, but it's just so... pretty.
