So, being someone who loves a good pun - or maybe a bad pun - I couldn't resist creating a game thread for BMAD based on the popular Mad Libs game that I'm sure many of us played as kids!
For those of us who don't know Mad Libs is a word game in which players are prompted to supply a certain type of word and then later asked to fill that word into a set of pre-created text.
For example one might come across the prompt "Action Verb" and fill in "Jump". They would later come across a piece of text something like this, "Tom can __(Action Verb)___ very high". The player would then fill in "Jump" from their previous list. The fun of course comes in when the player chooses a word that seems silly, or nonsensical in the context. For example if for "Action Verb" the player had chosen "run", "swim", etc. The gaming pleasure if further enhanced when the words are inserted into a well-known story/text or in a context in which the reader can easily figure out what is supposed to be in the blank.
So with that in mind, I thought we might have a few laughs with a series of "BMAD Libs". The simplest way to play is:
-Click "Reply"
-Type your answers to the prompted words at the top (don't look at the text passage at the bottom!)
-Scroll down and fill in the blanks with the corresponding numbered word
-Remove the spoiler tags from around the story text. They look like this:

-Click "add reply" so we can all have a good laugh!
(or maybe even be impressed by the coherence of your story!) Have fun!
