The Unofficial Stephen Colbert "The Word" game

Post by Doorslammer »

The Colbert Report televisual laughter show (with sound) has a popular section of the show on it called "The Word". Basically all that happens here is the almighty Stephen does a spiel of some sort all about the current issues of the day. Whilst he is doing that, at certain predetermined parts, a word or phrase will pop up in the "Word box" on the right, causing the audience to laugh, rupture their spleens etc.

The idea of the game is this. A clean wordless picture of the segment is posted below (all hail my lack of good cutting and pasting ;)). I shall start the thread off with a word or words or a phrase and other users have to come up with a funny reason as to make the audience laugh their little socks off. It's sort of like the Caption Competition, but using a similar pic each time.

The winner is judged to have had the funniest answer to the word or words or phrase, and will post the next word for the week.

EDIT: I don't think I did very well in explaining it, so here's a video of what typically happens: http://www.comedycentral.com/colbertrep ... nId=168691

OK, hopefully it's going to be relatively straightforward, here is the pic the winner has to take away with him to post the new word.

And here is the first one to start, entries by next week.

Mods, do not need to lock a thread just because no one posts in it. It will eventually dissapear down the list.
Untill some newbie knob head comes along and performs some necromancy on it and bring it all the way to the top again.

Stop posting in dead threads, just to get your post count up.
