Oh well. Sigh. I guess I was being too wordy. No hard feelings, but I wanted to get at least something out of the last 15 minutes I spent writing it.

But no, I'm not going to post it. OK, maybe I'll post the final word:

Peace.

2. OK, here's one paragraph. Have fun, y'all
Between this __noun__ and __noun__, it's clear that the __noun__ is taking a __adjective__ __noun__, and I __verb__ those who __past tense verb__. In the almost nine years that I've been on DU, I've seen plenty of __noun__ and __adjective__ __noun__, but this one is __adjective__.

5. I tried not to read it as I copied out the blanks to a new file,
and this is what happened:

Between this board and toothbrush, it's clear that the minor is taking a hungry beet, and I chop those who lifted. In the almost nine years that I've been on DU, I've seen plenty of theater and wet veil, but this one is ugly.

:D

7. Between this cat and toenail, it's clear that the pencil is taking a
sleepy car, and I jump those who ogled. In the almost nine years that I have been on DU, I've seen plenty of food and crazy pelican, but this one is pretty.


That was fun! :bounce: and :hug:


As a side note, I always used "toenail" for noun in Madlibs as a kid. I thought it was hilarious.

11. "it's clear that the minor is taking a hungry beet"< literally laughed
out loud on that one. We should do Lounge Madlibs every once in awhile.

10. mad lib answers
Between this vacuum and dictionary, it's clear that the blanket is taking a gorgeous door, and I smile those who climbed. In the almost nine years that I've been on DU, I've seen plenty of brush and yellow balloon, but this one is giant.

13. I made my husband give me the nouns verbs and adjectives since he had no idea why I was asking
Between this bed and laptop, it's clear that the keyboard is taking a colorful kitten, and I eat those who ran. In the almost nine years that I've been on DU, I've seen plenty of tree(s) and hairy fly(s), but this one is pink.

3. I usually send it on in a PM...
I just use my back button, and there it is...

That way, none of my brilliance is lost!

:P

4. Sometimes it is for the best that I did not get to post
that brilliant thought. It was stupid and would have invited a major flamefest. Then I would have put half of you on ignore for hurting my poor widdle feelings.

6. That always happens to my most brilliant posts.
Sadly, that never happens to my posts that is just banal crap. I think the system is rigged to make me look bad.
