NEW GAME!!! WORD VERIFICATION

I've decided to get an early start on today's NaBloPoMo post.

And today, I'm going to do something different.

A GAME!!! We're going to play a game!

(Now, I will need some reader participation for this thing to work properly.)

Put on your creative commentin' thinking caps because it's time to play


DEFINE THAT WORD VERIFICATION!!!

Yes folks, lately I've noticed that the word verification words are actually starting to resemble REAL WORDS!!

Now how to play the game.

1. Go to the comment form.
2. Look at the jumbled letters and try to read them.
3. If they resemble any sort of word whatsoever, leave the word with your idea of it's definition in the comments!

It's just that easy!!!!

I will post my favorites tomorrow!! (see how clever I am? I'm getting two days worth of posts out of this idea!)

"What do I win?" you might ask.

You get the best prize of all!

The respect and admiration of your peers!!

If you still don't understand, here are some examples:

Word - fompa
Definition - The sound Max makes when jumping on the couch (fompa....fompa.....fompa)

Word - dewthe
Definition - A really famous blogger with a lisp.

Word - promb
Definition - A prom that's da bomb!!

Word - bints
Definition - little bitty mints

Word - carsart
Definition - All of those little vinyl stickers you see on people's cars

Word - impari
Definition - A brand of foreign car


Other acceptable definitions are some that Jeff Foxworthy might use in his "you might be a redneck" word definitions such as:

Word - sleonsiz
Definition - It's Leon's sister

Or, you can use it in a sentence.........

Word - sustanke
Definition - Max was sustanke that I had to give him a bath!! (so stinky)

And if you can't think of a definition, still let me know the WV word, and maybe someone else might want to take a stab at defining it.

Before I forget, we need some rules for this game.
1. Nothing rude, crude or unrefined. Please keep in mind that my kids read my blog.
2. You must use the ACTUAL word, no altering the word (unless it makes it funnier, then it's OK)
3. No mocking of the other contestants. (or me)

Play early, and play often. Let's see how high we can get my comment count today, shall we??

Well, aren't you clever!

In fact, I would call you a "genes."

Yes, it may look like the stuff your parents gave you, but it's how Dog the Bounty Hunter would spell genius.

Jo said...

No mocking?? Wow, you really know how to take the fun out of stuff, you know???
Telyger= a tiger on the texting addiction.

I think that means you've have that condition where no one can tell what gender you are.

LisAway said...

I got "draces" which is obviously a Foxworthy one:

I'm off to spind sum money at draces.

What ya'll takin' bout? SPIND money? Ya'll goin' LOSE money.

Did that make any sense? If not, it's only because I'm not a redneck.

Amber said...

I got a foxworthy one.

turnp. 'We're gunna have a turnp with dinner'

Jillene said...

Yesterday on someones blog my word varification was "fries". Mmmmmm....fries. It made me hungry especially since it was fast Sunday.

On yours right now it is "lettenc" which I would assume is rotten lettuce that someone is trying to hide under good lettuce on your salad plate.

Wendy said...

I had to cheat because my first word, was a word, I got grand!
Aren't you grand, so I hit refresh! is that cheating?

Melissa said...

You know, I've noticed that the word verification is starting to look more like real words and less like mumbo jumbo... like this word...
defroo - to take something extremely feminine and make it more masculine
"My husband decided to defroo the bedroom by removing everything with a floral print."

MamaHen Em said...

I hit refresh and got datize.

LisAway said...

"micrac" A new super convenient cabinet on which to store your microwave.

(This as with many of them, can also be seen as somewhat obscene. Seriously. Not so much with this one, but I just got one that was very nasty, as did another of your commenters.)

*MARY* said...

Mine says "nates" which is rather freaky because my brother's name is Nate and I don't talk to him very much, maybe the ghost living in my computer wants me to call my brother.

Bonnie the Boss said...

I first want to let you all know how much I hate, yes I know hate is a strong word, Hate word verification. I am not good at typing and late at night when I get around to blogging it is too much for my brain and fingers. If I hav to put it in more than once I just say forget it.
My word today is:
UNDERAMP: it is a lamp that goes in your armpit to light your way and leave your hands free.
Or maybe, it is an amplifier for dogs, it takes normal music and makes it into dog frequency so they can enjoy it more.

I know it is lame, I never said I was clever.

mandi
I remember all my life
Raining down as cold as ice
A shadow of a man
A face through a window
Crying in the night
The night goes into

Morning, just another day
Happy people pass my way
Looking in their eyes
I see a memory
I never realized
you made me so happy, oh Mandi

Well you came and you gave without taking
but I sent you away, oh Mandi
well you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
I need you today, oh Mandi

I'm standing on the edge of time
I Walked away when love was mine
Caught up in a world of uphill climbing
The tears are in my mind
And nothing is rhyming, oh Mandi

Well you came and you gave without taking
but I sent you away, oh Mandi
well you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
And I need you today, oh Mandi

Yesterday's a dream I face the morning
Crying on the breeze
the pain is calling, oh Mandi

Well you came and you gave without taking
but I sent you away, oh Mandi
well you kissed me and stopped me from shaking
And I need you today, oh Mandi

(you are sooooo welcome! So.Welcome.)
