When I was in high school, some friends and I would pass around a piece of paper and write a sentence or two of grammatically correct but largely nonsensically content. The result was an amusing, silly story, entertaining to us and perhaps my close circle of friends, but less so to outsiders. We called them "cheese logs" and later adapted the style on the web, back when personal web sites were "en vogue."
This is... like that.
- thanatos519 5y agoWe wrote exactly 5 words at a time and the results were shockingly sacreligious, violent, sexual, and nonsensical. Reading them aloud still makes me laugh to the point of hyperventilation.
- germinalphrase 5y agoThis is very similar to the parlor game “exquisite corpse”. A fun modification is is provide the next writer the last word (or the last few words) to build from. It is also fun to play as a drawing game. Divide paper into thirds. One player draws a set of shoulders/head leaving a few connection lines passing below the fold. Fold paper over so only the connection lines are visible. Next player uses those lines to draw the torso. Fold. Last player draws the legs. It’s good to have a few going at one time so everyone gets to draw throughout.
