A new Brokieism game
« on: September 13, 2008, 12:33:04 am »
In chat a while ago, some of us were talking about starting a new game.  I don't have all of it figured out yet, but here it is so far.

One of us posts a little scenario of any kind, stopping short of a punchline.  Others come along and post a Brokieism (pure or tweaked) as the end line.  Here's an example.  I have a specific line in mind (thanks LauraGigs), but there is no wrong answer.  How would you finish this one?


Bill is helping Ted put out his recycling.  Bill stops, looks into the container, frowns, and says, ________ .

I can see why Im sick of beans.
Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect.

It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfection

Hooray for all three answers.

Laura's line was something to the effect of having to get on in there and untangle the #2 plastic from the corrugated cardboard.

Okay, how about another one?  Anyone want to post the next scenario?  Coming up with one is feeling hard.

This is a fun game Elle!  But, you're right... coming up with good scenarios will probably be the hardest factor in these games.

Here's one... I don't know how far folks will be able to take this one.  It's got two parts.

A group of co-workers is hanging out in the coffee room, ____________ .  Their boss rushes in and reminds them that the board meeting started 5 minutes ago and she says, _____________.

I'll try. Even though I'm not all that at guessing games.

'You want soup?'

No right or wrong answers, Gabreya!  It's all fun.  I'm pretty sure that any necessary conversation could always be translated to Brokie-isms. ;)
