hi folks, NOSC and i stumbled on a new game to play on the board (occasionally and with due moderation, we don't wanna have another NAME-THAT-MOVIE(TM) "outbreak", or do we? ;-) ... so here it goes

1. someone puts up a phrase, it can be anything (i suppose)
2. others must generate anagrams from it that are "topical"
3. whoever finds the "most topial" anagram is the "winner"

but the good thing is that it's all subjective so anyone can contribute even after the game is "over" as long as they one-up somebody else with a better phrase (more topical/hilarioius)

---

for starters, we go in reverse! here's an anagram of an "ordinary" phrase that should be very topical for most folks on this board (it's not hard, trust me) ... unscramble it and you will "win" (failing that you yet might come up with something even better, who knows!) ... and here it is:

I AHOY TABLE ... LETS MOUNT !


note: contractions w/o apostrophes allowed (let's -> lets), exclamations/periods/etc are all superfluous (like Krusty's 3rd nipple!)

HINT:  for those who can't bear to do it "old-school" (by hand), there *are* automatic anagram generators on the web, so you can "cheat" (although it's not that simple as you'll find out, there are hundreds/thousands of candidate phrases you'll have to sift through). but be a good sport and don't cheat!

Is the answer "Hey, it's not all about me"?

Or maybe "Ate on a slimy butthole"?  (Sorry, I hope I didn't ruin your breakfast.)

Okay, that one was too disgusting.  How about this?  "Heat me in LL's tub. O, a toy!"  A rubber ducky, of course!  ;-)

you're close ... closer than you would probably admit!  ;-)

Too much of a clue - "Its all about the money."


remember, it doesn't have to end here (that's the beauty of this game) ... you can continue and build on the same phrase/anagram for added hilarity

in fact, the ones LL came up with for our collective mantra are more interesting (and cuter) than the original IAATM in my book

...rearrange "singleton" and find a slippery way to trip up a pesky squirrel.


"singleton"  ===>  "not single"   ...  among many other things!  ;-)


my wife is gonna kill me!  

It isn't ALL about the money.  It's also about thrills!  :-D
