Wikipedia:Department of Fun/Word Association/Disassociation

This is a take-off of the original word association. As with the ultra word association and the ultra branch, leave this here to archive itself separate from the main game. Also, feel free to make a branch occasionally.

How to play

edit

This is much like the regular Word Association, except instead of trying to put a word that is related to the previous one, you put one that has no relation whatsoever! Please, no red-links!

In the spirit of the game, please type only one word consecutively. Then another person can respond to your word, and the game continues! Word limits are eighty words on branches; sub-branches are permitted.

Sometimes, the game degenerates back into the normal version of Word Association, but it really doesn't matter because it's fun either way! (See if you can pick out when these switchovers occur.)

For Game #3, in which the starting word was Elizabeth Eastlake and the ending word was Exhumation of Richard III of England, see [1] .

Branches and subbranches were ATI Technologies; The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog; Z; "Yesterday"; "Dante and Randal and Jay and Silent Bob and a Bunch of New Characters and Lando, Take Part in a Whole Bunch of Movie Parodies Including But Not Exclusive To, The Bad News Bears, The Last Starfighter, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, Plus a High School Reunion"; Word Disassociation; "Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)"; Twiggy the Water-Skiing Squirrel; The Hypnotoad; Google; Solid South; Bugs Bunny; Danny Bonaduce; Nintendo 64; "Medley:Intro Venus/Sugar Sugar/No Reply/I'll Be Back/Drive My Car/Do You Want to Know a Secret/We Can Work It Out/I Should Have Known Better/Nowhere Man/You're Going to Lose That Girl/Stars on 45"; Prisencolinensinainciusol; Taco; How Few Remain; 1936 Summer Olympics; and Monty Python's Flying Circus.


This is Game #4.

Since this is Word DISassociation, the first word was chosen by associating with the last word of the previous game.
