Good Idea, Bad Idea.

[Raiyx]

This is a game I picked up in a forum a long, long time ago.

Basically, it goes a little something like this:

Bob wrote: 
Good idea:  Eating lunch

Susie wrote: 
Bad idea:  Eating toxic waste

So the object of the game is to poke fun at the good idea, and somehow turn it into a bad idea.  For the most part, it can get pretty funny, and pretty addictive.  It's a time waster, and then some.

Important!!! To keep the game going, you have to type out a new "Good idea".

With that said, I'll get it started:


Good idea:  Brushing your teeth. 

[miadon]

Bad idea: Sanding your teeth.

Good idea: Use Open Source Software.

[Loto]

Bad Idea: Stealing someone else's work and saying you made it.

Good Idea: Petting little animals

[Ishtar2]

Bad Idea: Petting a porcupine

Good Idea:  Working out

[Siteri Kidachi]

Bad idea: Working out with plutonium weights.

Good idea: Learning to read.

Bad Idea: Not reading the forum posting policy.

Good Idea:  Locking the thread.


( Some of the types of threads not welcome here are:

- Bored Threads
- Counting Threads
- Threads that ask people to answer a question or list a favorite where the answer is only a short sentence, and no discussion is involved

Well, I did read the forum policy, and I didn't think it met the criteria of being a question, bored, or counting thread.

My apologies.

The key point is: "where the answer is only a short sentence, and no discussion is involved."

But I'm no mod, so if they deem it as a legit topic then I apologise and request my posts be deleted and let the thread go back to being on track without my disruption in that flow.

Bad idea: Locking for no reason


Good idea: Not being a party pooper

And yes, I love me, so you guys should, too.

We'll leave it at that, Mister Non Sequitur

I prefer having discussion threads here - if you guys want to create a separate "game forum" as some have tried to do, certainly feel free to. While this thread is a fun idea, no useful discussion can come of it and single-sentence replies are best avoided.
