Most people find fake headlines amusing: Study Shows

[Evadora]

I want to make a new word game. If you are familiar with the Onion or "Man Bites Dog" you will be good at this game.

The goal is make the best headline possible.

Basically given 2 words you have to make a silly, funny headline. Then you pick two words and the next person has to make a headline.

Example:
Person 1 makes a headline and pick two words from that headline.

Person 1

Despite Raising Amounts of Applicants, the Number of People Admitted into Heaven Remains Constant.
Heaven, number

Then the next person take those two words and thinks of things related to those two words. He or She then make the next funny headline.

Person 2

Several Members in the "Jesus is Tasty" Vampire Cult Die from Alcohol Poisoning.
Vampire, poisoning

As you can see Jesus is related to heaven and Several is related to number. Person has wisely made the related words bold so there is no confusion.
The next person does the same thing. They think of things related to those 2 words above and make the next silly headline.

Person 3

Despite Being Effective Antidote for Arsenic, Mad Cow Blood has Negative Side-Affects.
Cow, Effective

Arsenic is a poison and Vampires drink blood.
And the game goes on.

Sound like fun?

Don't be afraid to bump.
