in this version, you can use any letter to start your sentences with. the object is just to make sentences longer (by number of words) than the person before you.
i'm also going to make some ground rules.
1. numbers such as 'fifty-five' can count as two words.
2. no strings of adjectives. i'll allow a few, such as 'pretty purple panties', but only to the point that it might actually sound natural. an example of something not acceptable would be 'nice new neat nifty nefarious nocturnal neighbors'. my reasons for this are that i don't want the game to turn into a contest to see who can string the most adjectives together.
3. for the same reason, you can't do something like 'adam and ana and alex and ashley and...'
4. first and last names are fine, but no middle names.
5. you can't use the same word twice, unless it's with a different definition, part of speech, or changes in spelling due to subject-verb agreement or something like that. in other words, if it's in any way different, it's okay.
examples of what's okay:
muscles might make might.
sally's sisters say 'stop saying stories.'
example of what's not okay:
mickey mouse married minnie mouse.
6. no sentences joined by semicolons.
that's all i can think of right now.
i'll start:
'the two tallest thompson twins tending tino's tavern's tables tested tiny-t1ttied theresa's terribly trumpeted tenacity taking twenty-two to thirty-three turns tenderly touching that tramp's ten teriffic toes,' tipsy tailors thoughtlessly told tina turner's talented teenage trainers, though they thought that this time those thieving troublemakers took twice their tallied tips tuesday.
54 words. |

you don't get my game? or you don't get my sentence?
if it's the former, all you have to do is come up with a sentence longer than 54 words all beginning with the same letter, while adhering to the guidelines i've provided.
if it's the latter.... well, i wrote that sentence when i was sober. i'm not anymore. so i can't explain it very well right now. |
