The MadCom, brought to you by Frank and Elim.
It's not quite as insane as it sounds. It's more inane than anything. We want words!
We give you "clues" and you give us any word that fits the description. It's simple and you don't even need skill to win. It's luck of the draw... sort of.
So, there's a story out there somehere that we wrote up, but with holes in it, � la Mad Libs. So, you provide words that fill in those gaps in the story, and try to make it humourous, despite the fact you don't know what exactly the story is. Or is about. Or could be about.
Make sense?
Here are the clues:
1. Adjective 2. Noun 3. Proper Name 4. Place 5. Noun 6. Verb (past tense, third person) 7. Noun 8. Adverb 9. Noun 10. Verb (infinitive) 11. Noun (plural) 12. Noun (state of being, e.g. happiness) 13. Noun 14. Adjective 15. Noun 16. Noun.
Funniest story wins. Good luck.
Side note: Infinitive is the form of the verb before you modify it for whatever person you're talking about (e.g. in "went," the infinitive is "to go").
