BOXER'S BLOGGERIFFIC NYE PARTY!!
(click icon on right fer party info)




WACKY WORD an' BLOGGER DOSSIER CONTEST fer scrambled brains




Update:

hey all y'all! WELCOME to the Front Porch whar' some of the FUN an GAMES of BOXER's party "rooms" takes place. Doan be shy, jes' plunge right in! On the Porch ya can win $50 fer yore own local food bank (or two other local charities in the winner's hometown--see post below)

Fer now, thar's two word-oriented contests runnin' ( more to come in the hours ahead). The newest competition is to write the best Limerick.


Jes' to refresh any (no!) drink fogged brains, Limericks are five line poems meant to be funny or ironic, the rhyme scheme is AABBA. The A lines are 7-9 syllables, the B lines 5-7 syllables. Like so:

The limerick is furtive and mean

You must keep her in close quarantine

Or she sneaks to the slums

And promptly becomes

Disorderly, drunk and obscene.

It's fun an clever to make up words to fit the limerick, thus:

There once was a sculptor named Phideous

Whose sculptures by most were thought hideous

He carved Aphrodite

Without even a nightie

Which shocked all the fussy fastidious

I totally cribbed these samples : )

Extra points to the limericks that use any fellow blogger's name.

Of course, the INVENT a WORD contest continues jes' under these masked marauders.


Words ain't yore thang? Click the fashion video links at the end of the post...ooooh ooooh oooh.

Next up? Hilarious Fill in the Blank word play (6pm, EST)

Hey y'all!! WELCOME ever'body!!

Iffin' ya arrived here from Boxer's FAB-u-lous NYE party, an never been to the Front Porch afore now, double welcome!! ( hope y'all fergive the Cracker -speak)

I reckon Boxer-Babe fixed ya' up at her libation station (the Vodka Fountain is up an runnin' now?) so quick! --while ya still have wits, see can ya' win a prize donation to a charity in yore town (detailed in post below, "Let the games Begin")

First up, try yore hand at Word Invention.


WORD INVENTION RULES

Option I: Combine the names of any two or more movie/sports/chef/design stars an' give the definition of the new word.

Example: J-Lohan: a cushioned landing when ya' gits so zonked that ya' fall on yore fanny.


Option II: Invent a word that describes familiar situation for which no specific term exists.

Examples:

Someone who insists on rearranging the way you load the dishwasher suffers from
obsessive compulsive dishorder... a dishtraction .

The ubiquitous item seen everywhere until you decide to buy it, then it cannot be found:

Neverywhere… unbiquitous…fewbiquitous.

(Uncle's entry is, When a situation cannot be justified
an' things need to be equaled out, thas' a situation that ya need to "equify." Legal term; Equification)


Option III: Invent a word from the name of a famous person and use it in a sentence.

Examples:

Boycott is from poor ole Mr.Charlie Boycott, a hated landlord in Ireland, whose tenants an' vendors refused to have social congress wif' him--thus to refuse acknowledgment or patronage is to Boycott.

"Unbiden" a verb that means to swear or misspeak during tense moments; "The organizers feared their candidate would unbiden at townhall meetings" (Joe Biden)

Have fun--come back to see what entries others left in the combox.

New Game will be posted noon (EST) Dec 31st.
